This is soooooo interesting. The Romans were the ancient world’s materials-technology engineers par excellence: this is just another example of it.

“The Ezbekieh Gardens cover an area over twenty acres. They afford a popular promenade at all times of day; the attractions include cafes and restaurants, as well as a variety of rare plants and trees. After dark, in the limited glow of gaslight, they are even more romantic than the Moorish Hall at Shepheard’s, and not at all the sort of place into which a young unmarried lady should venture even with an escort.”

Readers asked me to do a chapter-by-chapter playlist for Call Down the Hawk like I’ve done for the other books in the past, listing the songs I listened to while writing those chapters, so here it is, with some caveats.

a) My actual Hawk playlist is 293 songs long

b) I actually listened to some songs for multiple chapters or had some songs that I used only for brainstorming, not while actually writing (i.e., a Jordan playlist, a Declan playlist, a Ronan playlist)

c) This playlist breaks playlist rules because it uses the same artist more than once, which is VERY GAUCHE I KNOW but honestly I don’t want to tell you how many Matt Maeson songs are on my Declan playlist, I’m sorry, this is actually edited. 

d) if I used more than one song that I can remember specifically for a chapter, I listed it (this happened often in chapters that change moods halfway through)

e) it’s super long, I’m sorry, there’s so many chapters

f) man, does anyone really want this
