Hello, fellow nerds! This week, we got to chat with Ligia Cushman, author of Rise of a Dark Throne and the recently published Fhear’s Fury!

Ligia Cushman is a Dominican-American fantasy author best known for the booktok sensation Rise of a Dark Throne: The Mōsa Chronicles. Ligia attributes her runaway success to robust world-building inspired by the Caribbean and in-depth character development that leaves readers escaping to a world centered on women of color, riveting romance, betrayal, and magick.

Listen in as we chat more about Ligia’s books, writing betrayal, and her upcoming projects. And be sure to follow her @lygiawrites
