The opening line of Kushiel's Dart is actually an homage to the opening line of The Persian Boy by Mary Renault, my first major influence. Fun fact: Another author once referred to me as a tawdry plagiarist, presumably based on that single sentence! 😮

The Kushiel series is like the parable of the elephant in the dark. By the time you've explained, yes, there IS an edgy erotic element--which can also be profoundly transformative--you've still got 900 pps of plot to describe... and all the lovingly researched historical detail!

@WorldOfTigra @HarperStephens_ One of the best books I have ever read. I simply do not understand why @JCareyAuthor is not a household name.

I WANT to nominate Joscelin, because, well, Joscelin. But I sort of want to put Khai up there, because he is a murdery tornado.

And THIS is one of the reasons I wish STARLESS had found a bigger readership! Princess Zariya on her crutches is fierce as hell, relentless polite, and carries lightning in the palm of her hand. Disability impossible in fantasy? Not even the slightest little bit, my darlings! ;)

@JCareyAuthor I'm rereading Imriel's trilogy and I can't express enough how thankful I am for him as a character. His inner turmoil and what he's gone through in unfortunately relatable but your grasp of what it means, how it feels is incredible for me. Have a bright day

An exciting night in our household! We had a bat in the living room. After we got the dog and cats secured elsewhere, it roosted on the ceiling, and I sang lullabies to it while Julie manufactured a net. Bat safely captured and released. Hope it liked the lullabies.

a) "Kushiel's Date" would be a very interesting reality TV show, b) for 19 years, my readers have been the best publicists EVAH! (Also just maybe, good storytelling is timeless)

I hear this a lot, and I understand, but hear me out... you don't HAVE to watch. And if, heaven forfend, an adaptation did go awry (which it could SO many ways), it doesn't compromise the original work--the version you keep in your heart will always be private and sacrosanct.💖

@JCareyAuthor I'm afraid that if the Kushiel's book series is made into a TV series, that they would not do it justice! I really want it to be made into a TV series, but what if they ruin it? 😫
