Hello again Mr. Eames! I have two questions for you: 1. What can we expect in the third book(characters, bad guys, you name it.) 2. who was the easiest and the most fun character to write in Kings of the Wild and Bloody Rose? (I actually just got Bloody Rose and I am currently reading it)
Nicholas Eames
Hello!
Well, the third book is inspired by the music of the 90s (as opposed to the 70s and 80s of books 1 and 2 respectively), so thanks to bands like Nirvana, NWA, and Rage against the Machine it's steeped heavily in themes of discontent, rebellion, and a general disdain for authority. As for characters, it'll feature a whole new "band", but since it IS the final installment you should expect pretty much everyone still from the previous books to make an appearance. That's the plan, anyway!
I think the easiest characters to write are the POV characters. While Clay has a lot of my sarcastic/pragmatic humour, Tam has my hopeless sentimentality, so I loved writing from both their perspectives.
Most fun, though? That's goota me Moog (in KotW) and Roderick (in Rose). Both are hilarious, but much more complex than they seem at a glance.
Thanks for reading my books! Hope you like Bloody Rose!

Thank you so much for writing "Kings of The Wyld" after trying to finish so many books and fighting a long spell FRE (Fantasy Reader Exhaustion), it was this amazing ride that finally cured me. I already wrote a little succinct review here and I don't wanted to let the opportunity pass without sending you a thank you note for taking me on this fantasy rocking tour bus!. P. S. Gabe=Kevin Costner, Clay=Mel Gibson?.

First of all, loved Kings of the Wyld! So cool! Have yet to read Bloody rose but definitely high up on my tbr list. I was just wondering why you chose to have Cooper’s child be a girl? Was there something specific you wanted to capture in a father/daughter relationship?

Pat Benatar! Wow, that is a throw back. Myron Grombacher was her drummer and I used to love watching him (as a fellow drummer). Funny, when ever I hear "Saga" I think of the Canadian prog-rock band by the same name. They were out of Oakville, Ontario. Ever heard their music?
