π! Awesome, thanks in advance. In case you've not noticed, I live in Nigeria, and your endnotes on my motherland are priceless! Sundering the Gods could have used some of your lovely humor? Maybe on the continuing Sundering the Crowns trilogy to come?

LOL. I hadn't even thought of people in Nigeria reading that end note! Awesome. People who know me will see a lot more humor in Sundering the Gods, I know an old buddy of mine laughs out loud when reading it and he has to explain it to his wife. There are allusions ranging from The Muppets to Monty Python scattered throughout. The Contessa might be a better balance of heavy & dark with adventure, mystery, and humor.
One of the fun things I did with The Touched is to scatter in hints as to who the actor I would want to play him would be, and sadly, said actor died about the time I was writing The Touched's scenes, but it also inspired me to put in those clues. He was more famous as a singer but also did movies. Those hints are in the first chapter where you meet him in Eve of Snows, I won't spoil it if you want to give it a shot.
