Guest Post: Helen Lowe
Last year, I spoke with New Zealand-based fantasy author, Helen Lowe, about Bitterblue,an interview that has since been translated into both French and Chinese – probably because Helen asks good questions! Recently, Helen’s novel The Gathering Of The Lost, the second novel in her wall of night series, was shortlisted for the David Gemmell Legend Award for epic-heroic fantasy. Congratulations, Helen!
