In defence of Fan Fiction and its writers.

Interview with Erika Johansen author of 'The Queen of the Tearling' trilogy: "I’m constantly impressed by Elizabeth Tudor, not least because she deliberately sacrificed her own personal life for the good of the kingdom. That’s the decision of a good monarch and a strong woman, and I don’t see it echoed nearly enough in fiction nowadays, when everything for female characters seems to turn on romance. For Kelsea, it’s all about the job, and I wish there were more such heroines out there."

In her new novel 'The Lesser Bohemians' Eimear McBride tells the story of two people whose abuse-filled past pushes them towards each other in an atypical love story.

Can 2017 match the tally of this year's fantastic fiction? - A preview of some of next year's fiction releases.

The top 20 books of 2016 that helped keep the world at bay.

For many reasons 2016 has us wishing for either a do-over, or the anticipation to see it already gone. One thing we can't deny though is that this year has been a glorious one for fiction. But also for book covers.

Interview with Bryn Greenwood author of ' All the Ugly and Wonderful Things': "Someone once told me, “I don’t want to imply that you’re working things out” and I said, “Of course I am, aren’t all writers working through their own personal issues?””

Interview with Caroline Leavitt, author of 'Cruel Beautiful World': "There’s part of the world that’s incredibly cruel and tragic, but it’s everyone’s responsibility to try and make that part as beautiful as possible, heal it as much as you can and find beauty in the world even after tragedy."

The most recent and final episode of Erika Johansen's Queen of the Tearling trilogy, 'The Fate of the Tearling' has finally arrived, and it definitely doesn't disappoint.

Author Helen Sedgwick about her book 'The Comet Seekers': “I knew that I wanted to write about people making different choices, and the multiple points of view allowed me to show why each of the characters make the decisions they do. It felt like the natural way to write a book about choice, and the ways in which we are both individual and connected.”
