Free The Sparrowhawk Companion by Edward Cline

and, try as I might, I could not find a more active role for him in the story, except in narrative.
    The lists that follow became necessary when, after finishing
Book Two
, I began to lose track of or misplace characters and even ships. The population of
Sparrowhawk
’s universe swelled when the series’ setting first moved from England to the York River in Virginia in
Book Three,
and then in subsequent
Books
when I filled the benches of the House of Commons and the House of Burgesses in Williamsburg with friends and enemies of liberty. Most of the names in the first list are of characters who actually appear in the series; a handful are of characters who appear “off stage,” such as Amos Swart in
Book Three
and Captain Musto of the ill-fated
Charon
near the end of
Book Two
.
    So, like Jack Frake, I heeded Parson Parmley’s advice to think earnestly on the names I chose for my characters, places, and ships. It is the only advice from a cleric I have ever taken seriously.
