Kendra Hedrick asked Alan Brennert:

Why wasn't Uncle Pono mentioned in Daughter of Moloka'i? It seems like everyone else from Rachel's past was mentioned except him.

Alan Brennert That wasn't intentional, Kendra, I just tried to mention, for new readers, the people most essential for understanding Rachel's past. Leilani was also not mentioned, and probably a few others; sorry if you missed them.
