Quotes About Sarkan

I wanted him to look up from among his heaped books and snap at me at the disorder I'd created. I wanted to know what he was doing, if the Wood had struck back. I wanted him to tell me how I could persuade the king to let Kasia go.
~ Naomi Novik
Sarkan, I said, holding the smoke and thunder of his name in my mouth like a prize, and slid onto him.
~ Naomi Novik
