This question contains spoilers… (view spoiler)

H. Paul Honsinger 1. Yes, but not in Book III (which you should be able to buy sometime in early 2015). That is part of the very long term story arc for this series with hints beginning to show up in Book IV or even Book V and developing into something very important down the road in Book VIII or so.

2. Yes. There is counterpoint story in Book III involving the adventures of the 16 year old Ensign Max Robichaux in which he encounters the Vaaach. This counterpoint story continues in Book IV and maybe further. I haven't decided yet. But, absolutely, you will get to see Max's history with the Vaaach which will really open a window into understanding who Max is and why he fights the way he fights.
