Read all 4 Greatcoats books in less than a week, a testament to my enjoyment of them & my ability to not sleep. I really loved the friendship between Falcio, Kest and Brasti- so well written! I’m already missing their voices in my head… although it is now quieter in there which is probably better for my sanity! You’ve mentioned they’ll be back- will that be fronting their own series again or as cameos in others?
Sebastien de Castell
Really delighted that you enjoyed the Greatcoats Quartet, Emma.
In the short term, both Falcio and Kest appear in some of the short stories in my Tales of the Greatcoats collection, which you can find here: https://decastell.com/book/tales-of-t...
In the upcoming Court of Shadows series, Falcio, Kest and Brasti will be making cameos now and then, but won't be in starring roles for some time yet; they deserve a break after all they went through in the first four books!
Best,
Sebastien

Hi, Sebastien! The Greatcoats tetralogy has often been discussed as part of the grimdark subgenre. Do you consider those books as grimdark and do you think there's something about "The Greatcoats" that makes it different from the classics (say, Abercrombie's First Law series)?

Just finished the Greatcoat series and loved it!!!
One part I can't quite figure out is at the end. When Falcio asks which heir was "really" the charoite, and the king responds by saying "What's a charoite?"
I'm missing something. Was this ghost not really the king? Was the search for the charoites part of Falcio's madness? That doesn't track because Cunien was also asked to find the charoites. I'm confused. :-(
