Kat22 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Posted October 11, 2012 I have read many of your novels and short stories and you always seem to input both the male and female characters inner thoughts in the novel. Will we get to see Gideon's POV in book three???? Or in a short story to come???? I would really love to see what is running in his mind. I love this series and the renegade angels one can't wait for Syre's Novel. Amazing writing always a joy to read Quote
Valgirl Posted October 11, 2012 Report Posted October 11, 2012 I luv this series also gideon and eva r the best hopefully happily ever after in martiage and yes eud luv his pov Quote
Kat22 Posted October 11, 2012 Author Report Posted October 11, 2012 I feel like there are so many things Gideon has yet to tap into it would be great to see his inner turmoil and not just see what he says and reacts to Quote

Crossfire Posted February 3, 2013 Report Posted February 3, 2013 I LOVE the Gideon POV snippet!! Hope there will be more as he is such a tightly wound person it is good to see his softer (in)side! Quote
Crossfire Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 Thanks sylvia and everyone im do excited ur books r great im hooked i was such a christian grey fan now im totally gideon cross omg pls let eva and him marry 😀 I was a CG fan as well.. But now am so glad GC got me out of that! I like Eva's character way more , Ana was such a pushover, I see her as a yes/no/yes/no girl now. A bit annoying really. And I like how Gideon doesnt use sex as an "either punishment or reward" option Quote
Crossfire Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 A scene, maybe. LOVE the Gideon POV!!! Quote
GiGi Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 Hi everyone, I think Gideon's point of view adds such depth to the story line. Thanks Sylvia. :) Quote
Crossfire Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 I think snippet #4 is the bit that fits in the ending of Reflected? Quote
AMC Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 I was a CG fan as well.. But now am so glad GC got me out of that! I like Eva's character way more , Ana was such a pushover, I see her as a yes/no/yes/no girl now. A bit annoying really. And I like how Gideon doesnt use sex as an "either punishment or reward" option LOL!! I am so over CG,too!! Quote
Crossfire Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Anyone here ever watched the tv series Gideon's Crossing? Think This has anything to do with the choice of name in Sylvia's books? (!I hv never seen the series, bit a friend,pointed this out) Quote
GiGi Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 Hi Crossfire, I never saw the series but I have heard of it. I don't know why Sylvia chose the name Gideon, but it sounds very manly. It is a Hebrew name that means tree cutter. The name doesn't mean what I envision the character to be. Who comes up with the meaning of names anyways? Sometimes I think these individuals must have been a little left of centre. :) Quote
Sylvia Day Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 Gideon is Hebrew and means "Great Warrior." Or more literal translation, "He who cuts down/fells his enemies."  The name Gideon comes from the Hebrew verb (gada'), meaning to hew down or cut off. This verb usually shows up when conflicting convictions slug it out, and one party destroys the regalia of the other (Ezekiel 6:6). Or when a person, or a body gets expelled from the mother group (Judges 21:6) or gets cut down a size (Isaiah 10:33). Or even when an entity separates from a quality (Lamentations 2:3).  HAW Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament doesn't often discuss the meaning of names but for Gideon it makes an exception: "His name is connected with his occupation, that is, he was a Hacker or One Who Hewed Down the enemy."  Totally perfect for our Gideon, don't you think?

Crossfire Posted February 11, 2013 Report Posted February 11, 2013 Hi Sylvia! I can't believe you still have the time to read our crazy posts! Gideon..hmm..it's a name I had a hard time getting into, but it certainly grows on you. I can't picture him as anything BUT a Gideon now, tho in the beginning I didn't like it. i liked Alistair in 7 years...am reading The Stranger I married now. Your other books are SO different from the Crossfire series, what made you change tack? Quote
GiGi Posted February 12, 2013 Report Posted February 12, 2013 Hi Sylvia, I LOVE ME GIDEON!! I can totally see how the name fits this character....tree cutter shmee cutter...warrior it is! Quote
