On page 126, Binion is described as Arabella's "junior by several years." Since Arabella is 17, I read that as meaning Binion is probably 13 or 14. [spoilers removed] Do you have any thoughts on this, or is there precedent in actual history? Thanks! Tadiana

This might be wishful thinking on my part but... at the beginning of the book when Arabella asks for directions from a man in a long scarf, was that a reference to Doctor Who or just a coincidental description? (I enjoyed imagining it to be the Fourth Doctor just dropping by this alternative time line.) Thank you very much! I absolutely loved "Arabella of Mars;" it was a real treat to read. -- Kat
