Hi Scott - are you getting mixed up with this guy? https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/456923.Scott_Hawkins

Other than in that link right there, not much that I know of? I did link to him on my website for the sake of disambiguation. I also read one of his books--it was pretty good, but he and I don't overlap in genres much.
He was published first though. I think it would be kind of funny if some of his fans picked up Mt Char thinking it was going to be a crime thriller. "Gracious. This is sort of a departure. I wonder if someone spiked the poor man's coffee? And what's this about a bull?"

Hi Scott- Not so much a question as a comment to tell you that The Library at Mount Char is, without question, one of the most original, strangest, most enthralling novels I have ever read. Simply amazing! I alternated between wondering how you ever thought this up and marveling at the immense talent in your writing. Thank you for this affecting piece of literature and I thank you in advance for providing the sequel?

This question contains spoilers…

Pardon me if this has already been asked, or if it really is obvious in the book, but I didn't catch it, even after reading it twice.... How does it become David's "assignment" to rescue Steve from prison? Does Carolyn convince him? How does she convince everyone that Steve is "essential" but also disposable? And is his heart a McGuffin?

Like everyone else, I popped over to see if there were more books. I don't really have a question, other than how do you stand the greedy demands for a sequel? Good for you! I love Mount Char, but too many stretch what starts out as a great story, until it just fades to nothing. Trying to force a story on, when the inspiration is already complete, just sounds like a recipe for creative constipation to me.
