Do you ever have the urge to have Jane Austen make a cameo appearance in the Temeraire novels? On similar lines, I sometimes wonder what her books would look like in your universe (which I love with abandon). Do you think she would have written Captain Wentworth as being in the Aerial Corps or kept him in the Navy?

Naomi Novik:
In the Temeraire books, you touch on theological and philosophical questions; and you bring up the RIGHT questions, and refer to the kinds of answers that would actually be proposed by theologians and philosophers. (I have studied and taught philosophy and theology.) Have you studied these topics personally, or did you ask others who were well informed to give you ideas? (Either way, great job!)
