Goodreads asked George Tyson:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

George Tyson I got the idea for The Keeper of the Wood trilogy more than 30 years ago when I lived in England and visited most of the settings of the first book of the trilogy, The Never King. As that book reflects, I developed a strong knowledge of, and facination with British folklore the ancient Celtic “Fairy Faith,” the vestiges of which can still be found in Christianity as well as in many of today’s neo-pagan religions such as Wicca. Indeed – like Peter Quince, the narrator and hero of The Never King – I collects important books on those subjects.
