I loved Kingdom of Beauty. Felicity is such a pretty name! What made you think of Rekavidur's name?
Deborah Grace White
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it 🙂 Rekavidur is actually inspired by the Icelandic word for "driftwood", which is "rekaviður". I don't pronounce the character's name even remotely the same as the word is said haha. But that was the inspiration, because he's a restless character, wandering across oceans like driftwood!

Azalea appears to have olive skin on the cover of Kingdom of Slumber and is described to have "warm brown skin" a couple of times. Technically, she's Listernian, but if she were played by a movie actress, what race would she be? Loved the book! Got me out of a reading slump!
