“Many fantasy stories close with the villains defeated and the heroes riding off into the sunset.”

“A lot of fantasy, especially YA fantasy, stops at the end of the revolution. You have the righteous woman who is willing to risk her life to be brave and change the system, or at least bring down the last system. That’s where most of them end, and then you presume it’s a happily ever after. But what’s more interesting to me is what does the world look like the day after the revolution? What does it look like after a year? What does it look like after 10 years? Because that’s when the story gets even more complicated.”

“As much as I love the heroine of my last books, and as much as she represents everything that virtuous power could be, I wanted to write a fantasy book that talks about what happens when there’s simply too much space between the most powerful person and the least powerful person in any government.”

“It might be controversial to say this, but as necessary as revolutionaries are, a lot of revolutionaries in their personal sphere aren’t always great community members. When you have someone who is so driven and focused on wider structural concerns, to the point where it basically becomes their career, a lot of personal things can slip under the cracks.”
