Goodreads asked Gary Whitta:

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

Gary Whitta Mostly from the old-fashioned monster movies that I loved as a kid, and to some extent I was inspired by John Carpenter's The Thing. And since I've mostly written sci-fi I really wanted to try my hand at fantasy for a change.
