I'm glad you liked the book and I'm sorry it made you cry (except I'm also not in the least bit sorry *evil laugh*). I'm afraid I don't have any plans at this time to continue Jinghua and Khalaf's story, but I do solemnly vow to write more books with soul-crushing endings.

Thanks so much for your question! ~Megan(less)

“And wilderness is paradise now.”
Megan Bannen, The Bird and the Blade

“Oh. It’s you,” she said, the words and the unenthusiastic tone that went with them dropping off her tongue like a lead weight. Hart resisted the urge to grind his molars into a fine powder. “Most people start with hello.” “Hello, Hart-ache,” she sighed. “Hello, Merciless.”
Megan Bannen, The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy

“Cruelty is easy to repay, my lord. Kindness is another matter.”
Megan Bannen, The Bird and the Blade

“In his mind he made himself get down off the ledge and go outside to help Dina with her bags, then to see if there was anything his mother needed; he spoke to the maid in complete sentences, and remembered to clean the dust from his own shoes when he came back inside. Naked in the dark, with the memory of the Hand's reptilian eyes, he realized that the ritualized world he had dismissed as feminine was in fact civilization.”
G. Willow Wilson, Alif the Unseen
