Like you've got to get rid of him.

It's like, well, what makes the monsters?

He hasn't hurt anyone.

He loves Evie.

He loves Odessa.

But then there are these little moments where you're like, is something going to go wrong?

I don't know.

How much of it is humans?

And how much of it is made?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, my God.

Was it right at the beginning?

It wasn't confirmed, but it was literally when Caspio met Andreas at the cottage and he was sketching.

because Odessa is an artist and I'm like I bet he's her dad oh I was very proud I was very smug meanwhile but a few hundred pages in no but the delight of it as well is that you still don't know so it was like I don't know until I get to the end of the book if that guess was right or not so I think they did a really good job of just dragging out that mystery and I was like I flew through this book I read it so quickly just because you're so like I just wanted to know um the truth of it but you

Yeah, that was very satisfying.

And it all came together in this beautiful.

And even some of the names.

I think they run into, I think in Caspia's storyline, it's Seth Hay at one point, which is the apothecary guy that Odessa met in book one.

I know.
