There are plenty of fantasy novels out there. Why should a reader pick up books from the Solypse series?
Ooh, good question. Actually, the answer is easy enough, I think. I grew up loving fantasy worlds and characters. As I transitioned into being a writer, I realized that having an open world for my mind to wander in was as important as having characters I could cherish. I grew up loving the worlds that I read about because they transported me somewhere else. The Solypse books now and in the future are a complex web of characters and environments. I want readers to feel emotion alongside the characters, and I want readers to daydream about the world.
What's the story behind your latest book?
Whereas the first book was an introduction into some of the key figures and the character of the town, "City of Secrets" concerns itself with the complex web of deceit and intrigue that is omnipresent in Solypse. Without giving too much away... Secret police, underground societies, and some old familiar characters in new lights.
