Hi Sebastien... I just finished Spellsinger (as here in the Czech Republic we have only the first one released so far, but the second book is going to be released in the coming weeks) and I was really amazed by the irony and fun when Ferius Parfax or Reichis are on the scene and talk. It is hilarious. Did you use somebody from a real life as a model for Ferius? Thanks. Oh and btw the covers are just magical...
Sebastien de Castell
Ferius is a composite of a number of remarkable women I was fortunate enough to be around when I was a teenager. She also takes a bit from the cowboy philosophy we sometimes find in westerns. Within the context of a fantasy novel this felt particularly vivid for me.
The covers are designed by Nick Stearn at Hot Key Books and illustrated by Sam Hadley. The first cover was illustrated by Dale Halvorson with Reichis being illustrated by Sam.

just curious, but why does the spelling of Dari's name change from Dariana in Knight's Shadow to Darriana in Saint's Blood? It's not a major issue for me, just something I noticed as I read it the second time (I just got it this past weekend a. a side question to add: how do you come up with good names that go so well with the time period? I can never find a good name for the time period I want to set my characters in

Hi Sebastien! I hope you're well - just two quick quarantine-induced questions (seeing as I've already reread Traitor's Blade in English and in French!) First, which of your books is coming next, and when? I can't wait but different sites are telling me different things! Second, do you happen to know exactly where to find The Red Lily, because I've not been able to find it on your site. All the best from Scotland :)
