This year, Solaris published the latest fantasy novel by Juliet McKenna, Dangerous Waters. It is the beginning of a new trilogy (The Hadrumal Crisis) set in one of her already-established fantasy worlds, and it sounds pretty cool. After reading the prequel novella, I wanted to learn more about the series and also McKenna’s writing in general. I contacted Juliet about an interview, and she was kind enough to answer my questions.
Prelude to The Hadrumal Crisis
“Captain!” Hosh’s shriek startled everyone. Up on the cliff edge, he was hopping from foot to foot, pointing out towards the distant horizon. “The wizard! The wizard’s coming!”
This was the first fiction I’ve ever read by Juliet McKenna, so I had no clue what to expect. I have a mixed opinion of this short story (offered free by Solaris), but I’m certainly intrigued to read more of these characters and this world.
