Oh, that was heartbreaking, but so well done. I'm really enjoying all your Heir fic!

Yeah, it was. I'm trying to keep this series true to canon. Thanks for reading.

I'm going to admit that I was so excited after reading the Warrior Heir and since I couldn't get my hands on a copy of the other 2 books I turned to fanfiction instead. And I feel pretty good about myself for guessing that the Wizard Heir had /something/ to do with Linda and Leander. Their relationship had so many facets and although I haven't read the following 2 books it seems like their troubles and worries relevant to your fic. :) Simply lovely.

Well, on the surface it doesn't have too much to do with them. But underneath, yeah, it does. I read Wizard Heir first, so I missed a lot of the subtext the first time around. But coupled with Warrior Heir, there's a new dimension added. And so much makes sense, even though Linda doesn't come in until about halfway in, and the Revelation doesn't come until pretty close to the end. Unfortunately, Dragon Heir doesn't have half as much to do with Linda and Leander. It focuses primarily on two other characters who you meet in Wizard Heir, and, well, I didn't like it half as much as the other two.

Um, if you want to read the last two books and are having trouble finding them, I have them uploaded as eBooks and could send you the links.

...I ended up reading Warrior Heir twice and the second time around I felt like the side characters didn't nearly get enough attention as they should have (especially Leander and Linda with their tricky-not-so-secret-secret-relationship!). Good to know that they get to play a bigger part in Wizard Heir! Something to make up for Dragon Heir...sort of.

I was planning on going on a man hunt at my local library...but I would definitely take you up on your offer if it isn't too much to ask? Please and thank you so much if you could! :D

Oh, it's not a problem. Here is the folder with the books. I'm always glad to help people get a hold of these, since they're not that well known, and I consider that very unfortunate.

I think in Warrior Heir, since it's in Jack's POV, Linda and Leander don't play that much of a role in his mind. I mean, yes, they are important characters. But aside from a slight curiosity as to what's going on and how did they know each other, he doesn't care as much. Whereas in Wizard Heir, Seph is direcly involved and therefore is dying to know what's going on. Jack has always has a family, so he's more worried about how the whole Warrior thing is going to affect him personally, and his "normal life", while Seph is more into the movement itself. Well, sort of. You'll see. *grins* I don't want to spoil too much for you, but ( ... )
