Will I need to brush up on my plate tectonics to read this one?! Seriously, your first trilogy was heavily scientific sci/fi. I loved it, but getting into the wholly new world was hard, especially as I let too much time lag between the books. Does this new series demand as much from the reader, and is this a concern to you as the author?

I can safely say that there is not a lick of plate dynamics in THE CITY WE BECAME. :) As for how much this series might demand of readers, that's up to readers. I just write 'em!

First, I’d like to say that your books with such diverse characters and brilliant story telling is inspiring! I was curious to hear how you think about putting together magic systems? For example, The Fifth Season with orogene is very unique to that series and where power comes from.

I don't have a question I just wanted to say you're awesome and I really loved the Inheritance Trilogy. Parts of the mythos reminded me of Gaiman's Sandman in a very good way. Or actually, now that I start writing I do have a question - what are 3 authors/series you'd recommend because you like them?! I found your series via a Reddit thread and am constantly looking for new series to read
