Hello Dear Mr. Stroud, I apologise if the question was asked before or is a bit nonsense, but I was wondering if Asmira from the Ring of Solomon and Kitty from the original series are somehow related?
Jonathan Stroud
They're not related, but they ARE certainly similar in character. Taken historically, Asmira is a kind of foreshadowing of Kitty, so when Bart meets Kitty all those centuries later, he's used to strong, formidable young women.

I just finished the first Lockwood & Co. book, and I think it was amazing. I read it at night and had to keep my flashlight on to go to sleep! I love how you describe the Visitations. A question that was bugging me was: Do other countries, like America where I live, have the Problem like England? If so, is it worse or less bad than the Problem in England?

As an author and presumably someone who spends a lot of time alone, how do you know so much about office politics, ambition in a traditional career, and power games? Your characterizations in both the Bartimeus and Lockwood books and your analysis of people's behavior are so true to life.
