JULIE KAGAWA
THE IRON KNIGHT
The Iron Fey series is one of my FAVORITE series ever! Like every other fan of The Iron Fey, I got very attached to the characters and the amazing world that Julie Kagawa created. Just LOOK at this series and these covers!
I bet you didn’t know this, but Julie was the very first author that I got to know when Reading Vacation first started. The Iron Knight had just been released and Julie and I became twitter friends. It has been SO MUCH FUN to watch Julie go from a debut author who no one knew, to the mega-star she is today. And she is still the same Julie who glomps onto twitter and talks about kung fu and Sims. Love her!
To celebrate the recent release of The Iron Knight, I have a short interview with Julie. Enjoy.
My Review of The Iron Knight
Are any of the characters based on someone you know?
Not really, though there is a bit of myself in each of the characters. Except Grim. I’m nothing like Grimalkin, as he would tell you himself, I’m sure.
The Iron Knight is the fourth book in the Iron Fey series. Will there be more? What can we look forward to?
Meghan and Ash’s journey has come to a close, but it’s not the end of The Iron Fey series. In 2012 there will be a new series starring Ethan Chase, Meghan’s little brother, when he is older.
What do you like to do when you are not writing?
I’m a video game geek, so you’ll usually find me on the 360, PS3, or PC in the evenings. (Skyrim needs to come out sooooooon. And Assassin’s Creed Revelations. And Mass Effect 3, and Borderlands 2…the list is endless.) But I also enjoy reading, painting, movies, and gardening. I also take classes in Wing Tzun and Kali, or as Neo puts it: “I know Kung Fu.”
Who is your favorite author and what really strikes you about their work?
I have so many favorite authors I can’t possibly name them all, but Neil Gaiman is my author hero. His writing is just so haunting and beautiful, and I aspire to write like that someday.
THANK YOU to Julie and Meryl L. Moss Media Relations for arranging this interview. I appreciate it so much.
