A Happy Moment

History Plus Fantasy Equals Awesome

Interview with author Judith Starkston focused on her historical fantasy series, the Tesha series, and specifically the fourth book, The Flights of Treason. Starkston discussed the challenges of marketing a niche genre like Hittite fantasy and the interest in the historical figure Puduhepa (Tesha), who is a marquee character in Turkey. She also shared her experience of using Tesha's personal seal (very cool!) to sign her books and the unique rituals and magic in Hittite culture.
