There probably won't be too much focus on Caleb and Brian, but I think there will be some. As long as those two are at odds, there will be if they are in the same place at the same time. I wonder if we'll get more on Michael and Brian, since apparently they were friends for a time when Michael first started attending there.

I hope there is a purpose to Zoe in the book, but so far I can't even begin to guess what it might be.

If you've read both books, you have met both Kara and Max, although there isn't a ton there. You get a little bit of an idea of the conflict between Kara and Max when you raid Hearst during book 1 to get the spirit stick. Other than that, not much any other time you see them.

But yeah, since you haven't played the original game, there is a lot of stuff that I know about them based entirely on that. And nothing says they have to follow any of that, thought I hope they do, because it makes them very three dimentional characters and characters I enjoy reading even when I don't like them.
