So if you think there is a significant chance you will finish and send comments, send me your email address and I'll send the draft, along with some associated materials.David Friedmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06543763515095867595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19727420.post-58678710701744322802018-03-30T14:06:25.175-07:002018-03-30T14:06:25.175-07:00I read Salamander and enjoyed the magic system.

No I haven't read Salamander. I'm a mathematician (logican ... computability theory) and generally big fan of both scifi and fantasy but don't usually read much crossover.
