Bolt was a character that was very near and dear to me. \u00a0Toward the end of\u00a0The Enemy Within<\/em>, I knew there weren’t going to be too many new characters that I was going to introduce. \u00a0The trilogy was coming to an end, after all. \u00a0But at the same time, Tellest exists as a kind of grand narrative. \u00a0Bolt fits into the world a lot better than you’d think upon first read, and even if you read the\u00a0Son of the Storm\u00a0<\/em>novella first, you’d get the first hints of this.<\/p>\n

You’ll notice here that Joman changed the lightning to a more jagged, electrifying style.<\/p><\/div>\n

Here’s to Bolt, who we certainly haven’t seen the last of yet.<\/p>\n
