Hello! Sorry, I have to fangirl here but I am in love with all of your books I've had the opportunity to read. After a few small debates with friends (in fact, as I'm writing this, my friend is arguing with me) I was wondering: how do you pronounce Roden and Imogen's names? Also, I know there are maps of Carthya and the surrounding countries, but I noticed there wasn't a scale. How big would you say Carthya is?
Jennifer A. Nielsen
The way I pronounce Roden is Ro (rhymes with bow)-den. And Imogen is Im (rhymes with Him) -o- gen (like gin).
For scale, Carthya is about 200 miles wide and about 175 miles from north to south.

Hello! I love reading, and so it is hard for me to choose an actual favorite book, but your books are definitely close to, if not at, the top! Something I especially loved about The Ascendance Series was that it was a perfect balance of unpredictable and predictable. When you wrote the Ascendance Series did you know what you wanted to have happen next or did you let the characters take you on the journey?
