I am writing a paper about bisexual characters in YAL, and Stranger was on a list of books with bi characters, but I can't find anything else saying whether any of the characters are bi. While I will definitely read this book at some point(and I already purchased a copy)Would you tell me whether it will be useful for my paper? Thanks so much for your devotion to boosting representation in YAL.

Dakota, I think our book will be useful only if you are writing about fictional situations in which LGTBQ and poly relationships are accepted as a normal part of life. If you need fictional evidence that characters are specifically bi, you won't find it in that book. (Some characters are indeed bi, but the storyline didn't pull in that direction; the evidence comes in other books)

Crown Duel has been may favorite book for years. I have the original hard back from when Court Duel was released and the later paperback when the 2 novels were published as one. Recently I saw that the e-book version has some scenes from Vidanric's POV! Should I buy the e-book to read these or are they available anywhere else? Also, are there any additional Vidanric stories aside from A Stranger To Command? Thanks! :)

Hello. Could you please tell me where exactly Mearsies Heili is situated, in relation to some bigger, better known countries (to me) like Colend or Sartor? Is it somewhere near Chwahirsland? Is it on the same continent at all? I've been staring at the maps until my head hurt, and nothing :)
