I am sure that you have heard this a lot...please write a sequel! My friends and I really enjoyed the book, and it is different from the typical plots in the fantasy genre. Remember the saying, "Give the customers what they want!!" :-) I really want to see how the relationship between Maia and Csethiro grows and see him grow into his role as the emperor. I also liked that the plot was not all about fighting; maybe if you did a sequel, a subplot could be about Maia learning to defend himself. I wish you all the luck and thank you for taking the time to listen to me beg for another book!

All the best,

Larry
