Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Hiya! Let's start. Who is the first person that dies in Callum's family?

Answer: Lynette

Lynette was Callum's sister. She lived in a fantasy world for three years, then Jude brought her back. She couldn't cope with it, so she killed herself after writing a letter to Callum about it.

2. Sephy was younger than Callum.

Answer: True

Sephy shows this in Chapter One. Callum says it will be humiliating to be in Sephy's class because he is fifteen. Sephy says "I'll be fourteen in three weeks."

3. How does Ryan McGregor die?

Answer: He tries to escape from jail and gets electrocuted

Jude is nearly found guilty of bombing a shopping centre so Ryan covers for him. Ryan says that he (Ryan) was the bomber. He was supposed to be hanged but it was changed to life imprisonment. Then Ryan died trying to escape.

4. What is the name of the only girl working in Callum's cell in the Liberation Militia?

Answer: Leila

Sephy is kidnapped at one point in the story. Later, Leila is arrested.
Callie Rose isn't born until "Knife Edge", Sephy is a Cross and the L.M is a Nought organization, and Minerva is Sephy's sister.

5. How old is Callum when he dies?

Answer: 19

Jude is 21 at this point and he is the only member of the family that dies in a different book. Callum has his sixteenth birthday at the late beginning of the book.

6. Now that is "Noughts and Crosses". Time to go to "Checkmate". How old is Callie Rose when she meets Jude?

Answer: ten

Jude is Callie's uncle but he has a plan to get Callie to kill her grandfather and herself. You could call him a poisoner.

7. Who tells Callie Rose the truth about her dad?

Answer: Tobey

Callie Rose has a crush on another boy called Amyas. Then Tobey says she's stupid to think Amyas would go out with her and ends up blurting out that Callum was hanged. Sephy had told Callie that Callum was run over.

8. What cancer does Jasmine have?

Answer: Breast cancer

Jasmine keeps quiet about a lump in her breast for months. Then she ends up in hospital with breast cancer. Her daughters deal with it in different ways. In Jasmine's hospital room, Minerva goes on at Jasmine for not telling anyone about the lump. Sephy barely says a word and stares out of the window.

9. When the chapter is told by Sephy, what is shown on the line that separates her chapter and the previous chapter?

Answer: A cross

Because Sephy is a Cross, a cross is shown. If it's Callie Rose telling a chapter, there will be a nought and a cross. In Meggie's and Jude's (and Callum's) chapter there will be a nought. In Jasmine's chapters, a cross.

10. Who has the last chapter in "Checkmate"?

Answer: Callie Rose

Callie Rose has the last line. She begins on her sixteenth birthday with hate and ends with love.
(Jude has only just died at this point.)
