After spending three years in Bukhara in present-day Uzbekistan, they were encouraged by a Mongolian embassy to visit Kublai Khan, grandson of Genghis Khan, who controlled a huge swath of Asia. Niccolò and Maffeo therefore turned east in order to trade in such things as silk, gems, furs and spices. The Byzantine re-conquest of Constantinople in 1261, along with upheavals in the Mongol Empire, may have blocked their way home. Thinking he would reach Asia and having no idea about the Mongol Empire’s collapse, Columbus marked up the book with notes in preparation for a meeting with Kublai Khan’s descendent. The two brothers then went to the port city of Soldaia (now Sudak, Ukraine), where they owned a house.ĭid you know?

On one hand, this delights me, as I do put a lot of effort into the magic in my books. The author who creates interesting types of magic for every book he writes. I’ve begun to build a reputation as the “magic system” guy. And so this time, I’m going to try to talk about what The Way Of Kings is. How much the project has come to mean to me over the decades.) But such things describe the book but don’t actually tell you anything. How I’ve written hundreds of thousands of words worth of worldbuilding for it. (How I started work on it over fifteen years ago. I often end up talking about its creation. Kings has stymied me each time I’ve tried to describe it.

The names of some of the creatures in the story- like "Forsoothians"- was entertaining and curious at the least. ![]() Also creative was how some of these objects were alive, like lampposts, clocks, the magical lakes of cheese and dancing shrimp. His confusion of the importance of eating and puzzling thoughts over men who drink until they must stumble home was refreshing. In fact, almost a whole page was simply him pondering types of chairs, and why many are designed for decoration and less for practicality. The clockwork man's perspective on ordinary objects was intriguing. ![]() |
