Page 63 of Empire of Storms


  To Margaret Miller: Thank you for all of your help and guidance over the years—I’ve grown so much as a writer because of you, and I’m so grateful for it. To Cassie Homer: Where do I even begin to thank you for all that you do? I truly don’t know how I’d manage without your help. You’re amazing.

  To my unparalleled and marvelous teams at Bloomsbury worldwide and CAA—Cindy Loh, Cristina Gilbert, Jon Cassir, Kathleen Farrar, Nigel Newton, Rebecca McNally, Natalie Hamilton, Sonia Palmisano, Emma Hopkin, Ian Lamb, Emma Bradshaw, Lizzy Mason, Courtney Griffin, Erica Barmash, Emily Ritter, Grace Whooley, Eshani Agrawal, Emily Klopfer, Alice Grigg, Elise Burns, Jenny Collins, Linette Kim, Beth Eller, Kerry Johnson, Kelly de Groot, Ashley Poston, Lucy Mackay-Sim, Melissa Kavonic, Diane Aronson, Donna Mark, John Candell, Nicholas Church, and the entire foreign rights team: I am so blessed to work with such a spectacular group of people, and I can’t imagine my books being in better hands. Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything.

  To my parents: Thank you for the unwavering love, and for owning a truly embarrassing number of copies of all my books. To my in-laws: Thank you for looking after Annie when we’re away—and for always being there for us no matter what. To my wonderful family: I love you all.

  To Louisse Ang, Sasha Alsberg, Vilma Gonzalez, Alice Fanchiang, Charlie Bowater, Nicola Wilksinson, Damaris Cardinali, Alexa Santiago, Rachel Domingo, Kelly Grabowski, Jessica Reigle, Jamie Miller, Laura Ashforth, Steph Brown, and the Maas Thirteen: Thank you so, so, so much for your kindness, your generosity, and your friendship. I’m honored to know you guys.

  And to my readers: Thank you for the letters, the art, the tattoos(!!), the music—thank you for all of it. I can’t begin to express how much it means to me, or how thankful I am. You make all the hard work worth it.
