Daisy asks:I’m currently re-reading ‘Birth of the Serpent King’ and I found myself curious about a couple of things. I think BSK was the first HP that you shared with us (Jan 2011) and I’m struck with how different it is from your more recent HP work.Now I might just be imagining this, but you seem much kinder to various people in BSK than say ‘Darkly Loyal’ which you’re continuing at present on Rough Trade.
