Sherrie asked Genevieve Cogman:

Very good and interesting series. I want to congratulate you on your wisdom, fun, and interesting characters. Letting you know that I did obtain the book from the library and that there are a lot of people requesting your first book in the series. I am so glad that there will be more than just the 3 books. How do you work with the imagination of going through doors and into other worlds, etc.?

Genevieve Cogman Thank you very much, and I'm delighted that you're enjoying the series.

I'm not sure quite what you mean here by "work with". I try to research the history of the base concept for the world a bit - Venice, St Petersburg, etc - but then I just adapt details as I want for the story. They are alternate worlds, after all...

Andrea Instone asked Genevieve Cogman:

This is not really a question - I just want to tell you how much I enjoyed the first book and that it was a hard time waiting for the second. I just started reading it and will surely enjoy every minute of it. So, do you have other ideas for other series, too?

Judi

Judi asked Genevieve Cogman:

Thank you very much for your answers!! Will there maybe be more about Vales family in book 8? Sometimes I can not help but feel sad for certain Great Detektive characters like Sherlock Holmes or Vale. They are supposed to be alone somehow, which creates a special kind of loneliness I guess, no matter how good their friends are (and Kai, Singh and Irene are great friends for sure). Looking forward to your next book!

Gianna asked Genevieve Cogman:

I read the first two books in the Invisible Library series last year, and I love them, and I'm so excited to read The Burning Page, although I think I have an unpopular opinion in that I'd love Irene and Kai to be friends with benefits? but anyways yes I love your books, they're amazing!
