That sounds awesome! I look forward to reading those. Also, I'm glad you decided to write Valyn's storyline the way it winded up playing out in the books. It's darker but it makes a lot of logical sense and makes him more interesting for it. Thanks for sharing that tidbit! Love the behind the scenes stuff that goes into crafting a good book.
Thanks for the response Mr. Staveley. I also wondered about Valyn's arc in particular and how it diverged from where you previously had him going. It was obvious from reading TLMB that the book deviated in some ways to what you initially laid out which is of course only natural. As was said above, Valyn's new arc made complete sense, you did a great job showing how the idealistic and loyal young man that we saw in the first book was essentially dead. Losing Ha Lin in the first book was the first domino and Adare's betrayal in providence the second. I would love to see a book on the Flea but I am really interested if you plan on doing anything more with Valyn's character in the future.
