Hello!
In the novel I'm currently working on, I write from different characters' Point of Views for each chapter (Third Person Multiple). What I'm wondering is, is it okay to introduce some new characters mid-way through the story, and a few chapters after getting to know them externally/from another character's POV, add them as yet another POV-character?
The thing is that I have a couple of characters that I need/want as POV-characters, and I've just recently begun introducing them, but I'm not sure if it's the right way to go. I've been thinking that maybe I could add them in the second book (I'm planning a series), because that makes more sense, at least in my opinion.
What would you say? Is it confusing if you add another POV halfway through the story? Would it be "acceptable" to do this?
