This book is on sale right now to celebrate its tenth anniversary. (This piece was originally published on June 15, 2015.) I interviewed Maya again, in 2023, when she put out a revised edition. I was at an absurdly hip underground pop-up dinner (eleven tiny courses based around the 1968 Volkswagen bus) and seated across from a…
There’s a new Chicago Stars book coming out which I, of course, had to read. I have always enjoyed the chance to chat with Susan, so when her team asked if I’d like to do an interview with her about the book, I was thrilled! Dabney: Susan, how lovely to get a chance to chat. I…
Dabney: Kristan, thank you so much for talking to me. I’ve loved so many of your books–thank you for all the joy you put into the world! One of your many gifts is to take topics that elicit deep emotions and present them in compassionate ways that limn the joys life offers. In A Little…

I’m not drawn usually to shapeshifter stories but the rave reviews at AAR for Maria Vale’s series, The Legend of All Wolves, convinced me to read book one, The Last Wolf. Hooked, I binged on the next three and enjoyed them all. The series is uniquely complex and, as I read the books, I had…
We so enjoyed our interview with Milla Vane about A Heart of Blood and Ashes, Book One in her A Gathering of Dragons series, that we wanted to talk with her about Book Two, A Touch of Stone and Snow. She was game–our discussion is below!
