After my third rereaf, I was curious on two parts: 1) you mention that Flicker is "Shade's warrior." In the Raksura culture, is this like Jade's faction? 2) ember has all warrior brothers, why did none of them go with him? Thanks again!
Martha Wells
Hi, 1) It basically means that Flicker is Shade's favorite, or closest warrior friend, which in Raksuran culture could also be a sexual relationship. 2) They weren't given the option by Emerald Twilight, mostly because Emerald Twilight knew that Indigo Cloud already had too high a percentage of warriors in the court compared too Arbora, and giving them more warriors would have been openly rude, something ET was trying to avoid at that point.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I loved Murderbot & he is my all-time-favorite "bot" now! He reminds me of me, I guess, mostly concerning my attitude, especially concerning work (I'm an I.T. guy for a prestigious University and let me tell you, if I had a desk that wasn't open to the world, I'd be reading 24/7! My question is simple, do you know how long (or if) until Audible has part 3 and 4 available? Have they even been written yet?
