IF John is going to be shown with a wife in the next book... do you think that his wife is in love with the just Mischief or do you think she has a love for every brother? I always wondered how that would work. Would she just ignore the other heads... see them as just one creature whom she is in love with or what...? Ok this is a really weird question but whatever  |

I thought I had read somewhere that John's wife was just like him. With multiple heads. I have to try to remember where I read that. Let me get back to you on that.

I thought I had read somewhere that John's wife was just like him. With multiple heads. I have to try to remember where I read that. Let me get back to you on that. I just read that interview today, actually, XD "The third book is called Absolute Midnight – which suggests it won’t be a happy book! But the idea is that we are aiming for something which is going to be apocalyptic, but it’s going to be a private apocalypse - it’s going to be played out on a grand scale but also played out on a very localised, very intimate scale...
"Lots happens to John Mischief; John Mischief is this character who has all his brothers living on horns on his head, and they’re all called John: John Serpent, John Drowze and whatever, and - if any of you have siblings, imagine the consequence of living in constant proximity to the other seven siblings in your life and no possible chance of getting away from them - yeah, nightmare! What’s going to be very interesting, and I’ll give this not as a spoiler away for Book Three, we are going to meet their wives. And their wives are also arranged on two horns... the idea of the brothers Mischief speaking to the sisters whatever they’re going to be called, is going to be quite fun. They’re all going to be called Joyce or Jane or Joan, so it’s going to be Jane or Joan and John..."taken from here: www.clivebarker.info/yaabaratunpub.html |

Ohh awesome Rawk. So the John's must be like a certain species type on the Abarat. People with horns that have their siblings heads attachced to it. Oh gosh I'd probably want to die if my siblings were attached to my head at all times. Sounds like a nightmare. Poor Mischief... poor Johns.

That's amazing! That has to be hard when it comes to love, though. They all have to love one of the other girls, right? Soooo, it has to be hell when one of them falls in love with a brother's wife/gf/crush, or even falls in love with a girl on another pair of horns! Procreation must be hell, and relationship must be around-the-clock-drama.  |

Procreation must be hell, and relationship must be around-the-clock-drama. Lol, Munanna...I've never really thought about this. Could be enough drama to fill a whole other book. Imagine all the arguments... I didnt want to go there with the procreation bit... but now it's been mentioned. It'd sure need some organising... |
