Goodreads asked Nicholas M. Scholl:

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

Nicholas M. Scholl In the Eirdynn realm, anything can happen. But the thousands of miles of forests and the jaggedly beautiful mountain ranges I pictured for it were inspired by my home state of Colorado.

As for the plot, I knew I wanted to write about dragons at some level, but I didn't want to be like everyone else. So, I added assassins. Cliche I'm sure... I loved the Inheritance Cycle (Chris Paolini) growing up, and I wanted to introduce a new take on dragons where men could become them.
