  2. Norman, I forgot tot ell you that the brothers are in mourning so they are described as wearing black (Primus is one of the brothers), and Primus is described as "monk-like".

  3. Love it!! Do you think it'd be useful to post little clips from the book describing characters and environments? I already have some, but I'm only half way through the book at this point.
    Eh?

    Again, great job on the style guide.

  4. Anna, I don't see how it would hurt. I don't think we have to stick strictly to the book, but the personalities are important and are best in context!
