GRADUAL INTERVIEW
SPOILER WARNING!   ..........   Spoilers - Fatal Revenant
John Blackburn:  Hi there. First, I wanted to let you know that FR is not on sale in most bookshops near me (London). This is very unfair as ROTE was so successful in the UK. FR cannot be a success if it is not even stocked! I have only been able to get a copy in Borders not Waterstones (a pretty dismal shop anyway with an uninspired collection --but the market leader). I hope a Haruchai-style kick can be delivered to the appropriate backside!

I have a few (easy) questions:

1) Did you draw the FR map of the Land yourself? In that case, why not sign it? Why was it not set more formally like the other Chronicals?

2) Why didn't Stave just stand between Linden and the Harrow, blocking her line of sight to his eyes. Or he could have just spun her around? Surely that would've broken the spell?

Thanks for your answers and continuing work on the Land and GI!
1) The FR map is based on changes I made to the original "Covenant" map; but I didn't draw either version myself. I don't know what you mean by "set more formally".

2) I suspect that the Harrow would have been perfectly capable of swatting Stave out of the way if Stave had tried to interfere directly between the Harrow and Linden.
