* In ''A Gathering of Shadows'', which takes place in February, Kell says that his birthday is in a month when canonically it is in July.
** On second thoughts, V.E. Schwab may have given us Kell's real birthday (July 10th) which the characters have no way of knowing. The royal family doesn't know Kell's name, much less his birthday. So it's likely that they just assigned him one (in March) so they would have a day to celebrate.

Added DiffLines:

* In ''A Gathering of Shadows'', Kell tells Lila that he didn't look for Alucard when he initially disappeared from London three years prior because he was the one who banished Alucard in the first place. Later, we find out that [[spoiler:Reson Emery sent him away, not Kell.]] Furthermore, Kell says that Alucard ran from London ''before'' Kell ever tried to cast him out. If so, why didn't Kell try to find him when he disappeared? He can't have been angry at Alucard for [[spoiler: breaking Rhy's heart yet because Rhy only felt betrayed ''after'' he found out that Alucard was at sea during that time.]]
* If Antari can't use the spell ''As Tascen'' to travel to and from ships because they aren't in a fixed place, how can Kell use it twice to find Rhy on a ship?
** Possibly the rule only applies to things that are moving, so teleporting into a docked ship is fine but a sailing ship is not.
* The Arnesian word for market is translated as ''volan'' when referring to the Night Market in Red London and ''merst'' when referring to the ''Ferase Stras''. Are the two words used interchangeably or is there a mistake in the language?
* If [[spoiler:Rhy and Alucard's initial romance and Alucard's subsequent banishment]] took place in ''summer'' three years before ''A Gathering of Shadows'', why does Tieren say Alucard was unable to participate in the Essen Tasch of that year (due to "certain circumstances" heavily implied to be his disappearance from London), if it happens in February, before [[spoiler:their affair]] even took place?
* Why does everyone let Lila get away with posing as Stasion Elsor during the Essen Tasch? They would have nothing to lose by reporting her (except Kell, who also had a disguise to maintain) and they all seemed very concerned for her safety, if not appalled by her cheating.
* Since bone magic is illegal in Arnes, why is it included in the game board? It seems like they wouldn't want children trying to learn how to do it even if they have the ability to.
