Damian: Wings is the first in a new series featuring faeries and trolls. Where does the series go from here? For readers looking forward to future Aprilynne Pike books, are there any hints you can provide about what is next on the horizon?
Pike: I can tell you that in the next book, readers will get a chance to enter Avalon with Laurel. We will see Tamani in his own environment, explore Laurel and David as a couple, and see lots more of Chelsea. I am so excited for readers to get ahold of book two!
Damian: I find myself constantly pondering and exploring the topic of creativity. In a past blog post, I asked readers if they practice more than one form of art, exploring multiple venues as a means of expression, or if they have committed to one definitive media, to the exclusion of all others. Besides writing, do you express yourself via any additional creative outlets? What are some of your other interests and pastimes?
Pike: Writing is really the only medium in which I create art. But that doesn’t mean I’m not a huge enthusiast. I love music and theatre, art — especially paintings and sculpture — and have also found that I really enjoy good photography. I feel like enjoying creative arts that I didn’t have to work to create is like refilling my bucket. Without being surrounded by beautiful art, I would have none of that passion and appreciation to draw from to write my own stories.

I loved the book Wings but the ending for me was not satisfying.
Who is Laurel in love with? David or Tamani?
Aprilynne Pike has written their characters really well but maybe too well. You can tell from the start that David loves Laurel and they are happy together until Laurel finds out she is a faerie. Then Tamani comes along and makes it harder on Laurel by charming her with his looks and his smile. How is she going to be completely happy when she is in love with both of them?
Then at the end of the book we find out that Tamani has loved her since she was little and that makes it harder on Laurel because she now feels that she is cheating on David when she is with Tam and Tam when she is with David. Then at the end she kisses Tam but she is still in love with David.
So who is she going to go with Tam or David?

The second book in the series is entitled Spells. She is also working on a stand-alone novel separate from the series. I don't believe the release dates have been announced as of yet.
