New Character Profile & News
It’s Thursday and blog day…and time for the next character profile to be revealed! This one is Thomas, from The Caein Legacy.
Character Profile: Thomas Marsden
Thomas is the youngest son of the Novanian King, and as such never had aspirations for the throne. He trained as a scholar and a scribe, and has a keen intelligence that shines through once he overcomes his initial anxiety when meeting new people. Though Thomas knows the intricacies of Novanian law better than nearly anyone else, he distances himself from politics as much as he is able.
When circumstance pits his three elder brothers against one another, Thomas initially attempts to maintain a diplomatic and neutral stance. It is only after Colin sentences Alexander to execution that Thomas is prompted into action, believing that in this case, what is right goes against the written law.
Though Thomas has little experience with confrontation, he risks his own life and reputation to do all he can to save Alexander. It is Thomas who warns Andrew of their brother’s plight, and it is Thomas who assists Andrew in his scheme to thwart Colin’s plan.

This will be the last profile I release for The Caein Legacy for some time. There are other characters, but until I get a bit farther along the road to publishing that series, they’ll remain a secret. But don’t worry – there will be other, unrelated character profiles coming in the future. If you’re interested to learn more, the big announcement in my June newsletter will give you an indication of what is to come.
Next week’s blog will feature my book reviews for the month of May. I haven’t been able to read as many books this month as I did in April, but I did find a few more great reads to share.
