emily guo asked Gail Carriger:

who is your favorite character?

Gail Carriger I adore Lord Akeldama because he is so deliciously fun – all that mad italic–wielding action. I’m under the impression you need only read him to understand why.

More Answered Questions

Sarah
Sarah asked Gail Carriger:

My sister and I love your books! Every time a new one comes out we share so we can gossip about the characters together. Thank you for writing them! My question is: have you written any of your family or friends into characters? If yes, do they know?

Anthony
Anthony asked Gail Carriger:

Prudence appears rather naive about intrigue in the first book of the Custard Protocol series. It does appear that Lord Akeldama taught her a few things about subterfuge... but there also appear great holes in her education. And why didn't Lord Akeldama send her to the Finishing School? (I have a few guesses...)

Hannah
Hannah asked Gail Carriger:

How do you know so much about Steampunk? *You got me addicted to it!*
