Wow!
A massive, massive thank you from me for reading this great page-turning book and series.
I have truly loved writing this great series. It’s been great to see the characters develop, the relationships and the plot.
At the time of writing in July 2021, this has been my favourite series to write. I’ve had tons of fun with these characters, and I really hope you have to.
In terms of this book, it was always about bringing together all the various plot threads and tying things up in the series.
From Fateweaver to the Triad to the law change and the relationships in the book, I wanted to tie it all up in this book.
However, I also wanted to give these characters some twists and turns to finish up their character journeys. The main one of course being Daniel’s as he needed to buy time for Alessandria to destroy the Loom and come to the rescue.
It was only when Alessandria turned up so she could possibly calm him down if the Flesheater ability acted up that he activated it and saved Ordericous.
In addition, I really wanted to prove and explore a few things with this series and book in particular. The biggest of these being autism and I wanted to explore the difficulties and gifts autism gives people in a positive light.
My background is in clinical (mental health) psychology so I know mental conditions are seen in a positive light. Where autism, depression, anxiety and more aren’t seen in a negative light. They aren’t diseases that destroy lives. Sure there are difficulties but when seen in a positive light with the right support provided, people with mental conditions can thrive.
Granted I just gave you a grossly oversimplified crash course in clinical psychology. But this is what I wanted to show in this series right from the start.
Because we see Daniel Fireheart, a gay autistic man, who tried to kill himself because of the difficulties autism gave him and the lies.
But we also see him thrive with the support of Alessandria and Harrison to become a hero to his country. Without his autism none of this would have been possible. As showed in Heart of Bones were Fateweaver Primus tried to control him, but she revealed to Daniel she couldn’t control his mind because of his autism.
So all in all, the message (if there was one) of the series is to celebrate life and accept people’s differences and just because someone is autistic and paralysed doesn’t mean they can’t do things in life.
I’ve absolutely loved writing these books and thank you for reading. I really do appreciate it.
Have a great day and I hope to see you in another book soon!
