I just finished Daughter of the Burning City and loved it! Where did you come up with the inspiration for the different illusions other than them being family members? Can't wait for Ace of Shades!!
Amanda Foody
I'm so happy you loved it! I based many of them off of typical circus/freak characters, such as Unu and Du (the Two-Headed Boy), and Crown (originally inspired by the Bearded Lady...but giving it my own twist). I also just love large families because I come from one, as well.
