Hi Juliet, There isn't enough room here to say how much your books mean to me, but I wouldn't be who I am today without them. Thank you, for everything, and for Sevenwaters most of all. I stumbled onto the FAQ page on your website, and under the Errors section, I see you mention a character who dies then miraculously pops up again in a later book – who was this character, before he was renamed in the reprint?

Hi Briony, and apologies for the slow response. I'm so happy you've enjoyed my books!
Re that character, he's one of Johnny's men who dies in the fight for the islands toward the end of Child of the Prophecy (I just re-read that scene to check.) His name is Mikka. He pops up alive in Heir to Sevenwaters. I did ask the publishers to rename him, whether they did so I'm not sure as I don't have a copy of every reprint. Usually they won't make a change unless it's something really major, as it involves some expense.

Hello, like everyone who posts here I am a big fan of your books and have them all. I notice on your bio that you are a member of a druid order OBOD - that sounds absolutely fascinating, can you tell me what this order does? I live near Canberra in NSW, I am sure they don't have anything like that near here although I have discovered recently that there is a Freemason order (and one for women).
