Apparently the fourth has further wanderings of Titus Groan in the modern world, which doesn't sound appealing. His opus, comprising the three Titus Groan novels—Titus Groan (1946), Gormenghast (1950), and Titus Alone (1959)—is a testament to the evocative possibilities provided by the conceits of the Gothic genre. Mainly because Peake pretty much wraps up the tale of madness, death, power, romance and social climbing in the castle of Gormenghast in the first two books, with the third feeling like a strange addenda to the tale. Sting plays the unscrupulous 17-year-old Steerpike in the BBC radio plays of Mervyn Peake's novels, Titus Groan and Gormenghast (originally published in 1946 and 1950, respectively).

You could hold an annual contest to decide which genre Titus Groan and its sequel, Gormenghast, fall into and you would never get a satisfactory answer.
