For sure - this is something where the full explanation kind of got cut in WotM, but will be clarified briefly in SotF - in short, she's both trying to remove him as a future rival in Military, but also gain favour for her father (who is technically also Military but as the Proconsul in Sytrece, depends heavily on Governance to operate). So her family have a foot in both camps - their loyalties are very split, basically.

I just started reading the book, and honestly I am very impressed. Not very many books catch my attention and hold it as this one has. One of my favorite questions to ask authors is "What is the origin of this story you are telling?" I like to keep that in mind as I read a book. Do you mind answering that one for me?

Might be a strange question - but have your Ebook rights changed? I've managed to get 3 of my colleagues to buy it, as I thought it was fantastic! When I wanted to recommend it today, I found that it was gone from all of the German independent book stores. The only one listing it now is Amazon - not an option... It's really sad, as I would probably find more willing buyers, if only it only was still up for sale!
