The Outcast (Summoner #4)(106)

I must also thank both my commissioning editors, Liz Szabla and Naomi Greenwood, for their stellar work in polishing my books into the best version of themselves. Their combined insight has taught me more in one year than a lifetime of my own study of the craft. I owe them a great deal for trusting in me and believing in my writing. Without their support, there would be no Summoner series.

Thank you to the publishing teams at Feiwel and Friends and Hodder Childrens, for helping bring a beautiful book to as many readers as possible. They have done fantastic work and have stuck with me from start to finish.

There are several artists who I have loved working with to bring my books to life. Thank you to David North, Malgorzata Gruszka and Michelle Brackenborough for their beautiful artwork.

I would like to thank my friends and family for their ongoing support, guidance and patience over the past few years. Robert Ayres, Vic James, Dominic Wong, Michael Miller, Brook Aspden, Kash and Emily Siddiqi, Alice Kingsnorth as well as Liege, Jay, Sindri and Raj Matharu, you guys rock.

Finally, thank you, the readers, for all you have done. Your comments, reviews, messages and encouragement have meant the world to me. It is ultimately you that made me a success, and you that keep me writing. I will be forever astonished, honored and grateful for your support.

Thank you.
