Easter eggs in Queen’s Thief series

[rouan1.livejournal.com]

We all know about the ring from Rosemary Sutcliff’s books showing up as an Easter egg and the quote used from Howl’s Moving Castle. What I am wondering is, if there are more that I’ve either missed, or forgotten. Your thoughts and/or suggestions. 😊

I just finished reading Eagle of the Ninth to my son and noticed a few things I think influenced The Thief specifically. Not exactly Easter Eggs, though.

And, to be honest, I'm a bit reluctant to mention them here as then I might not have anything to contribute to our WSK book club read of the Roman Britain trilogy later this spring.

I guess I can wait for the discussion. 😉. I just got my copy of The Eagle of the Ninth from the library so maybe I’ll pick up what you did

I'm reading The Silver Branch out loud to my son these days.

While reading tonight I was reminded that Megan definitely used some names from EotN. I don't have a copy in-hand, but I'm confident Aulus was one. (Or Boagus. But I think it was Aulus.)

It seems iike there were 1 or 2 more.

Hmmm, I had forgotten that!
Thanks.
