Summary
He learned about the roommate in increments. Bits and pieces.
Josten. Neil.
Maths.
He ran. At five in the morning, like a crazy person.
He didn’t bring people over. No friends, no partners, no nothing.
No wonder, Aaron said once in a passing sentence, He’s a bit of an asshole.
Or: Neil is Aaron's roommate. Andrew is fascinated even from afar.

Summary
Nathaniel has spent years surviving the Moriyama court by enduring Prince Riko’s cruelty and keeping his world as small as possible. Mostly, that means Jean and their promise to survive together. For a long time, it had been enough to get through one day and then the next.
But Riko’s experiments on Nathaniel start to go right in horrifying ways and Nathaniel realizes he only has two choices- break the one promise that has kept him and Jean alive by leaving him behind, or stay and become a weapon Riko can use to destroy the country.
The only person who might be able to help is an insolent Druid elf locked deep in Evermore’s dungeons.

Summary
"If one were to ask Andrew Minyard - not that anyone ever does, but if - he would say Riko Moriyama is a sadistic prick.
But no one asks Andrew, because Riko is King. And kings cannot die.
Except, of course, for when they do."
OR
Riko is dead and the press are calling it a suicide, but Andrew isn’t sure that’s the whole truth. The Ravens are splintering, Kevin could benefit from some therapy, and two of Riko’s most loyal players have just transferred to Palmetto State.
Andrew has a bad feeling about this season.
He’s never wrong about these things.
