Surprise! Today is a special fiction pick day, and I have one of the most popular writers of fiction on the market today: New York Times bestselling author Katharine McGee, author of the wildly beloved American Royals series. The four-part series debuted in 2019 and wrapped in 2023, and asks the compelling question “What if America had a royal family? What if, instead of becoming president, George Washington became king instead?” As a royals editor, royal podcast co-host, and general royal obsessive, I couldn’t get enough of this series. (Katharine is also the author of the popular Thousandth Floor trilogy, but today we’re talking about American Royals.) In addition to talking about the royals (come on, we had to!), we also talk about Katharine’s process in writing fiction and what we can expect from her in 2024.
All by Katharine McGee:
American Royals
Majesty
Rivals
Reign
Katherine’s fiction picks to keep you satisfied until our next fiction episode:
His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman
The Buccaneers, The House of Mirth, and The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton
The Wolf Den by Elodie Harper
