I am a huge fan of your books and have read everything you have written since first diving into Hover Car Racer aged 12. I am yet to come across another author who can weave multi-dimensional characters together with blockbuster action as seamlessly as you. I particularly enjoyed The Tournament (especially as a current Cambridge Student it was nice seeing the university being the home of the hero rather than Oxford!). I have so many questions I could ask, but will limit myself to just two:
The Tournament was a big departure from your usual settings and action, although you managed to keep a similar level of excitement and tension throughout the book. Did you mean to come up with a setting/idea/location for a different type of story or did the idea come first and the pacing second?
What's next for Scarecrow? After his last adventure with the Army of Thieves he was continuing his recovery from the losses he suffered in Scarecrow, but what comes next?
Many thanks for taking the time to do this and, as always, keep writing!
Edit: I meant to say that I was so sorry to hear about your wife and glad to read in the end of book interview after The Tournament that things are starting to get better. Stay strong and best wishes.
