Hi everybody!
I can’t express how happy I am to find this community. I read Queen of Attolia years ago. Recently I heard the word “Attolia” on the subway, and remembered the lovely book I had read. As soon as I went home, I searched for it on the net, and there it was. I quickly reread the Queen of Attolia and then went in search of King of Attolia. Not a single Barnes and nobles in New York City had King of Attolia. I dearly wanted to break some amphoras until I found a copy in my local library. Of course, I devoured it. I am even forcing my sister to read the series. I have been lurking and reading all the amazing posts for a couple of days now. I had a few questions and I knew that everybody here will be able to answer them. They might seem a bit tedious and obvious, but please bear with me.

1. Gen loses his temper and hits poor Costis on the head. Does he lose his temper because he heard them humming the song, “The King’s Wedding Night?”
2. Speaking of that song, I really wonder what exactly did it say?
3. Sejanus says, “Sand in your sheets is such an aggravation, especially when that’s all in your bed.” What does he mean?
4. How did Irene know that Gen looked towards Eddis when he was alone? Was it just intuition?
5. Gen says, “It’s true the queen would never have you, but we could both be assassinated, and you could be captain to my heir. Don’t give up hope just because chances are slim.” Costis asks, “For the assassination or the heir, Your Majesty.” Gen says, “Why would I worry at all about assassination when I have such a stout guard to defend me?” Is he just being sarcastic or does he want Costis to think that the chances of an heir are slim.”

Thanks!
