Book Talk: Sophie Cassidy

Description

Over the last few weeks I've introduced the lead characters of my book "Return to Death's Province", which is the first in what will be a series called "The Secret War". But there are still more characters to meet. Today I'd like to share with you the sisters, Sarah and Sophie Cassidy. The Cassidys don't have a huge roles in the first book, but will play leads in the later books. They're only in "Return to Death's Province for about a quarter of the story.

I can't say too much about them because most of their back story isn't explained until the 2nd and 3rd books. I can say, they are the only characters in the first book not from the same nation as the rest of the cast. They are from Lithostone, a nation very much like Idoless with a few key differences; one of the biggest revolving around woman's "rights". In Idoless gender roles are very much enforced. Women aren't allowed in the armies, or even to fight in any way. That's not the way it is in Lithostone, likely because it is the only nation of the five that has a queen ruling it.

Though they don't look anything alike when we meet them, the girls are actually twins. I can't go into what happened to Sophie to make her look the way she does, but it's certainly something mystical. For an hour a day, Sophie can access superhuman strength, but even without that, her physique makes her stronger than the average woman and even many men. The girls couldn't carry themselves more differently. Sarah is confident and bubbly, while Sophie is quiet and shy. Embarrassed by her appearance she covers herself in a suit of armor. It's hinted in the first book that one of them is a lesbian, though it's not reviled which one is till the second.
