In reply to Michael. Well, I think it's a given that Dungeon Masters are evil. It's right there in the name ;)

I think I have another addition to your list of people who like to torment the things they love: Dungeon Masters. There’s almost nothing I enjoy more than tormenting my players (except for watching authors do it to their characters). Hopefully I don’t fall into the psychopath category.
By the way, your books are amazing.

In reply to Matt. Thanks for the kind words, Matt. It's true that Falcio has some hard times coming to him in Tyrant's Throne, but then, Tristia is a pretty nasty country so that's only to be expected.

Well bravo then, it has been a lot of pain and suffering taking the journey with Falcio; but I admit that I have never felt so connected to a character and enjoyed their triumphs so much. Bracing myself for the escalation in turmoil and tribulation that is surely waiting for Falcio in Tyrant’s Throne (literally moves under desk and puts hands over head while curling into fetal position).
