I've just finished reading The Riddle, it's sooooooo good, but I wonder why Maerad and Cadvan didn't say anything about their feelings for each other at the end...hmm...
Anyway, Alison, how long does it take for you to write a book, usually? 'Cause I really cannot wait for the series to complete!!!

the first two took her around 3 months (or was it five :confused: ) and the third which she has recentley finished took her around a year i think.

I know but I am just so impatient!!! :D
Don't you think that Maerad should have said something about her feelings (towards Cadvan, not the Winterking) whn she found him, alive, in Pellinor.
I mean, on page 222, in the lkast few lines, it said:
She had loved Cadvan, and he had loved her...
But i was a bit confused when (on page 223), Maerad said Cadvan had been, all at once, her father ,] and her teacher and her friend...

Oh, by the way, I got a question: why were Maerad and Cadvan unable to join their powers together when they were fighting the Iridugul at the Gwalhain Pass? It was never explained, or if it did, i must have missed it... :confused:

Well when I read that bit (where she said she had loved him and he had loved her) I got all excited and then when we had that debate kinda thing on here, people thought it meant something different, that she loved him more than just a friend, but not a boyfriend... or soemthing

[bai_xu]

oh... :(
that still doesnt explain why Cadvan never said anything...I swear that he loves her...all the tenderness that he'd shown etc. :D
Maybe it's just the author's way of making us wanna read on... teasing us...damn it, she's so good at it, lol
