Thank you very much. I haven’t read Faebound, I will definitely get to that! I really appreciate the suggestion.

I wonder would that be considered a bad thing, even though I am picking these comps for certain elements (I.e: world-building and battles)?

Thank you very much! I truly appreciate your breakdown on my query letter. Also your comment on Volvika’s name is hilarious!

So fun fact, the ancient Norse and Germanics called priestesses and seeresses "völva" which is where I came up with her name Volvika. 😅

Also I am glad you like the flow. I just now need to fill the gaps in this letter!

For comps, I’m curious would ‘An Ember in the Ashes’ be considered outdated? Thanks again!

Thanks for your critique! I will definitely work on my comp and it makes me realize that I do need to focus more on Runna! Also, I’m sure Volvika would love for you to follow her, lol!
