Will do.
It went something like this.
Me: 'The hero is called Colin.'
The marquis: 'Not Colin Landwaster or anything like that?'
Me: No. He's only 12.'
The marquis: 'Oh, okay.' (Colin is not a very cool name over here. In fact, it's rather the opposite.)
Me:' On the other hand, he's from Andover.'
The m: 'Is this urban fantasy?'
Me: 'No. It's an imagined world fantasy. Andover seems to be an empire.'
Cue minor outbreak of Britishness about a empire based on Andover, which is not very big nor very exciting -- think somewhere like Oak Forest Illinois. There may have been accountancy jokes.
Having said which, I love the book.
