Meet the Minor Players in “The Wall Of Night” Series: Meet Rigan

UK/AU/NZ

The “About the Characters” post series focuses on the less prominent characters in The Wall Of Night series. Chiefly because although the protagonists and major players rightly get the lion’s share of attention, I believe that:

“…it’s the presence of the smaller characters that (also) “makes” a story, creating texture around the main points of view.” (from my Legend Award Finalist’s Interview)

I commenced this series with the minor players from The Heir of Night, but have continued on with those from The Gathering of the Lost and Daughter of Blood. I’m sure you know the drill by now, but yes, they appear in alphabetical order by name.
