I’m assuming you already read Achilles (thank you!), so all those fine people I mentioned in those acknowledgements pretty much apply here, too. But I’d like to put a spotlight on a few of those people and add a few more:
To my literary agent, Wendy Sherman, thank you again for getting this ball rolling and then for giving it a push when it got stuck. Let’s keep this momentum going.
To Keith Wallman, Kayla Park, Alexandra Israel, Erin Mitchell, and everyone at Diversion Books, thank you for helping me get this story out there. Your notes and direction have been invaluable. And a special thank you to Jaime Levine for bringing the series to Diversion in 2016.
To my family and friends, thank you for helping me promote my work and giving me a pat on the top of my head when I needed it. I want to add Justin Kinney for encouraging me to keep going and helping me with last-second editing questions (on many different projects) and Jeremy Bell for reading the very first draft of Thetis and giving his much-needed advice. Oh, and Joe Andosca’s brain proved to be helpful again. Thanks, Joe’s brain.
To Veronica and Juliette, my brilliant daughters, thank you for not burning down the apartment whenever I ducked into my room to write something down real quick. Oh, and for your endless love and all that stuff.
And again, to you, the reader: I know there are a lot of books out there, so thank you for spending some time with mine. Truly appreciated.
