Did Aldrik die? You're going to have to wait until the third book to find out for certain! There's already been a lot of speculation on the Air Awakens Goodreads Fan Club: https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/...
I also have some fun things planned from now until the release of Earth's End for readers to enjoy, but I won't say much there yet either.
Aldrik was just a name that "sounded right". Many times I'll mush sounds together to make a name until I hit something that feels "right". Other names will have little homages to other things. For example, Vhalla is a play on Valhalla because I was inspired superficially by Loki and Thor for the appearances of the princes Aldrik and Baldair. So the names can have a number of reasons, or none at all.

I've recently fallen in love with AIR AWAKENS and your writing style. I love the way you create characters and romance and worlds. Having said that, I'm curious– are there any plans for a new series outside of AIR AWAKENS, or will you be staying with that world for a little bit longer? Either option sounds fantastic to me, I'm just wondering if there's something else you're going to surprise us with. :)
