Hi Mark, why did you choose to portray Cordelia's pov in the past few books? She's not a particularly sympathetic character, but I thought maybe you were trying to give a human face to dangerous obsession? Thanks! ~Chiray

Hi Chiray,
Thanks for your question - and a Happy New Year to you!
*SPOILER from SF to 4RC*
Cordy's story - from Six Furlongs to the end of Four Roads Cross is both crucial to what happens to Conrad and also a terrible tragedy. If you tried to imagine how the books would have unfolded *without* seeing what happened to her, I think you'd see that it would have been an unbelievable shock when she betrayed Conrad and led the Fae to him on the Gallops.
And you wouldn't have seen the end, when Mina played a part in Cordelia's execution/murder (delete according to your point of view).
I hope that clarifies the situation, and thank you again for reading my books,
Mark H.

Thanks for your speedy response Mark. I really appreciate you going to the trouble of checking for me. That makes sense now. I must have missed the bit in chapter 10 then which is why I was confused. I will definitely go on to read some more of the series. I'm Jo(anna) Gill, but my kindle account is in my husbands name for some reason I can't remember! I hadn't realised it came up as his name on the question.?
