I've read somewhere that Milton wrote a sequel to paradise lost, supposedly called paradise regained, but i can't seem to find anything about it on the internet (neither in bookstores). Is this true?

yes, he did - not nearly as good as paradise lost. I know I have it in the same volume as paradise lost - but it's just in small letters on the cover.
"Good bye, master, my dear! Forgive your Sam. He'll come back to this spot when the job's done - if he manages it." ...He fancied there was a glimmer on the ground as he peered out at that high stony place where all his life had fallen into ruin. -TTT
The sequel is indeed called 'Paradise Regain'd' and you can find it on-line (and lots more) in the Milton Reading room: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~milton/reading_room/

'A Student's edtion of John Milton', is the only annotated complete woks of Milton published in mainland of China, so far as I know. The editor, Prof. Lu Pei Xian of Shanghai International Studies University, departed several years ago. And when I was studying in SISU from 1998.9 to 2000.7, there had been already no chance to receive his tuition.
