Aye, indeed. What they said. 
Shadowbane is indeed the sequel to Downshadow, though it happens a year later, and a few significant things happen between them. You could certainly skip from DS to SB, but I suggest you read "Chosen of the Sword" first. It's free.

To clarify, I only meant "not a direct sequel" because it follows up from two earlier short-stories.
A reader can jump from Downshadow to Shadowbane directly, but I would really recommend reading the entire series as Erik has outlined [in the link I provided above]. Then you'll get the full story!  |

Downshadow is followed by two books: Shadowbane and Shadowbane: Eye of Justice. Both books are, sadly, available only in ebook.
A complete listing of the Shadowbane series (as published to date) is available on Erik's site, here. |

It's not a "direct" sequel as such, but Shadowbane does act as something of a "spiritual" sequel -- as well as following up from events in two of Erik's previous short stories:- Chosen of the Sword and A New Purpose [which is a story included in the Shadowbane e-bundle]. At least that's how I see it.
And yes, Shadowbane is an ebook only edition.
