Michael asked Alan Brennert:

Emma-leigh Rioux asked Alan Brennert:

What would you say is the theme for "Moloka'i"? Is there more than one theme? Does the theme or themes correlate with "Daughter of Moloka'i"? I love these books by the way, how you detail the setting and emotions is so raw and beautiful.

Cynthia Shannon asked Alan Brennert:

With all the research you do before writing your books, what's one interesting, unexpected thing about the period you write about in Moloka'i that you didn’t know before you set out to write the book?
