confusing the readers
filed under your questions, my answers
A comment that came in today:
I have read all the Sara Donati books. Just finished "Fire Along the Sky" and the beginning of Queen of Swords. I am just wondering why Luke Scott Bonner and Hannah Bonner became Luke Scott and Hannah Scott. I thought this was the story of the Bonners. Why confuse the readers?
If I do something like this (and by the way, if Hannah is called Hannah Scott, it's only an assumption made by somebody else who knows her brother), there is always a reason. Think for a minute about where the characters are, what is going on in the world at large, and about the dangers of the situation. canaafrica.org this resource
Though it may seem at times as though I sit up late thinking of ways to be confusing, in fact if I'm up late it's for the opposite reason. Or because I can't put a book down. See the next post.
