In 2017, I resumed my \u201cAbout the Characters\u201d<\/a> post series that focuses on the minor characters in The Wall Of Night<\/a> series, because :<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s the presence of the smaller characters that \u201cmakes\u201d a story, creating texture around the main points of view.\u201d

~ from my<\/em> Legend Award Finalist's Interview, 2013 \r\n\r\n<\/pre>\n
Initially, the series focused exclusively on characters from The Heir of Night<\/em><\/a>, but now I\u2019m continuing on with minor characters from both The Gathering Of The Lost<\/em><\/a> and Daughter of Blood<\/em><\/a> simultaneously \u2014 in alphabetical order, of course!<\/p>\n
(The quotes, together with the covers, indicate whether the character appears in both or only one of the books\u2014although at present we\u2019re having a run on single entries!)<\/p>\n

“Malian…was too keyed up to believe sleep would come quickly, so crossed to the nearest fire and added branches to build it up. She heard an exchange, too low to catch, among the sentries, before a warrior brought her a camp stool and a bowl of soup from the nearby mess tent. \u201cDuar, Lady Malian,\u201d he said, when she asked his name, and she nodded, recognizing his grim voice from the forest.”<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
