I just wanted to throw a small oar in, here. I write both series, so obviously, I have some attachment to both of them. I consider them very different types...
Well I, for one, thoroughly enjoy them both. Â I wouldn't have put it as eloquently as Michelle did, but for me, reading is like food: just as sometimes I'm up...
... Please, please, please do not construe my comments to wish you to stop writing either series!! I enjoy the depth of story and character of the Essalieyan...
... Oh, no -- I didn't take them that way :). I just don't expect everyone to like both series, because they're so different, and I don't -mind- if people...
I love them both - but I have to admit my interest in the 'Cast' books was piqued because it reminded me of Jewel. Jewel is my favorite character although I...
well I love both of them... I just read one or the other depending on my mood. ________________________________ From: Michelle Sagara <Michelle.Sagara@...>...
I will be honest and say that the Cast books are without doubt my favorite of the two series, I have really taken them to my heart. Big Friday hugs to all ...
I'm replying to this way late and as I'm reading my email in reverse chronological order someone else may have said all this but still. If I hear about an...
The shorts posted on her website are so good that I had to track down the collection, Speaking With Angels. I even convinced my son to pay for it as a Father's...
... LOL! I think they're just trying to find you -more- to read that you'll love <g> Tad Williams is a very good writer, although I think my favourite to date...
I will second the suggestion for the Otherland series. I thoroughly enjoyed the first 3 books. However, I've noticed that Tad has a tendency to write excellent...
... This is so odd to me that I had to comment, because to me, Kvothe is in no way perfect, start to finish. He -is- enormously -bright-, even brilliant--but...
I'm glad I'm not the only one who loved Crytonomicon! I even enjoyed the math! (I even devoured the Baroque Cycle because it was about Lawrence Pritchard...
Here's a question that's been bothering me since I first read The Broken Crown - I sent an email to Michelle about it, but haven't heard back yet (of course, I...
MIrialyn isn't technically godborn - she's actually the daughter of the godborn King Cormalyn and his wife - sort of a 1/4 godborn - although I don't think the...
Michelle, you wrote in the beginning of June, "In the middle of writing a difficult scene, I suddenly realized I -needed- to reread THE KING OF ATTOLIA by...
But isn't it fairly clearly said that she's something of an anomaly, someone who has no set place, but is too important to just leave and make her own place? ...
... Unless I'm misunderstanding things, I don't think that's it. I believe Mirialyn is a singular oddity because the marriages between the Twin Kings and...
She's an anomaly in being a) the offspring of a Twin King and his wife, and b) female/a daughter. The Twin King's heirs are their half-brothers. Their...
You're probably right - what I'd like to see is a bit better explanation of how godborn children come about. We've seen glimpses, even some complete stories...
In Broken Crown, the Twin Kings are directly referenced as the fathers of the two princes (page 454). However, in order for the Princes to be Godborn, the two...
... Perhaps when they speak of the Twin Kings as being descendents of Veralaan, they aren't meaning it in a literal way? It's pretty confusing, because it's...
Godborn children are insinuated to happen currently within the Dominion. In Kallandras' discussion with Marrana right before Diora's wedding, he mentions he's...
... The Twin Kings are the foster fathers/legal fathers of their "sons" who are actually their half-brothers. The two gods are not the ones who have the daily...
... Going back through old messages - I am under the very strong impression that one of Arianne's parents is Bredan. She makes oaths which are so terribly...
... Kallandras said they passed over the "grave of Tor Carallon" - as opposed to a buried city, it's implied it's a dead city. Even the gravesites of the...
... In Hunter's Death, Teos says, "Well met, Meralonne APhaniel. Well met, little brother. It has been long since last we met, and I hope you have fared...
... Her actual comment was something like "My eyes could be just as much artifice as yours" and then said, "Were you not who you are", seeming to indicate...
