I lent my copy of The King of Attolia to someone (no, of course I didn't loan my beautiful hardback) and she had a question when she was finished.
Although Costis lost his temper and punched Gen, she wondered if Gen treated Costis unfairly by involving him in all the court intrigue, shaming him to his family, and manipulating him again and again.
And, I know we talked about this before, but how do you think Gen really felt about Costis? Was he angry because Costis punched him, since Costis only did what Gen wanted him to? Why did he choose Costis for all this?
