Readers' Most Anticipated Books for Fall 2025
Edward Durand
Edward Durand asked Django Wexler:

I am completely enjoying your work, I just finished The Shadow Throne last night/early this morning. I am wondering if Janus will every be one of the perspectives that you write from?

Django Wexler Glad you're enjoying it! In general, no, he won't. The trouble with a genius character is that it's very hard to be in his point of view and make the readers believe it. Using a nearby characters as the point of view helps maintain the mystique, a bit like not knowing how the magic trick is done. It's the same reason why almost all the Sherlock Holmes stories are written by Dr. Watson.

There may be a brief snippet of Janus POV in one of the epilogues, but that's about it!
