Thank you, Bre. I always enjoy when people find things they didn't notice in a previous read. The big stuff is easy to find. The little stuff makes me smile as I add it. Brandon's a fun character for me, so he'll likely make more appearances if I manage to write beyond the 5th book. Since Austin has only been named, he might need to eventually get some print time, but who knows. I'd enjoy having him get together with Dainen as the pair would enjoy being leashed by Brandon. As for Thorin, he served his purpose, though if I ever need a bitchy, obnoxious, prick, I know which character to pull back.
