Brian Staveley:
This series has been a tremendous read. Instantly in my top ten list. The use of character perspective and political intrigue kept everything grounded and somewhat 'messy' (in a good way). Will be be seeing more of Valyn in the future? His development was the most tragic of the siblings for me, and I feel as though he deserves more ink. Was the prologue in Last Mortal Bond a tease?

When you write your books do you make a specific effort to make them different from other books in the genre. Do you sit back and think "everyone does that" and try to be different or do you just let the story flow and if there are some genre similarities, then so what?

When I was young my teacher told me that I was good at writing and that I should do more of it. In my practice I always found myself blocked by one problem and still do today: Defining the different natures of the characters. What they're going to say, how they're going to act or react to a certain situation doesn't seem to flow naturally. How do you do it? and Thank you above all for your amazing work.
