OMG!! I bought your book wanting to kill time but I got caught up in the flow! You've crafted a masterpiece! Haven't enjoyed a book so much since Way of Kings! Is there a connection between Caeden and Malshash? Are Dav and Caeden the main characters? What is a Doken(?) is it like a sort of dream space? Any spoilers from book 2 your willing to divulge ?? ;)

Thank-you! To answer your second question, I'd probably describe the four POV characters - Davian, Caeden, Asha and Wirr - as the 'main' characters, which will be the case for book 2 as well. I know a lot of epic fantasy series have a tendency to branch off and follow other characters in sequels, but I generally prefer it when a story stays focused and follows the ones I'm already invested in, so that's what I'll be aiming to do for this trilogy.
Other than that, I don't really want to give anything away but you'll definitely get some answers in book 2. :) Cheers for the message!

Hi James, I'm on my third read of the Will of the Many and it hits every time I read it. I also want to add that I am a Nethgalla apologist and hope when you revisit Licanius you come back to her! My question is: Does music inspire your writing, and if so do you listen to music while you write/ what music do you listen to?

Soft Spoilers for: Will of the Many-
In the blurb of the Strength of the few, you mention there being three realms. We probably missed it, but my friends and I only caught evidence for two. Is there evidence we are missing in book 1 of all three realms? Not looking for spoilers, but want to have something i’m looking for when I re-read Will of the Many.
