Alma Katsu:
I loved your book! I am reading Old Bones now by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Childs. It is about the Donner family as well. I was wondering whether you collaborated on their book? Thank you!
Alma Katsu
No collaboration, I'm afraid. We were probably working on our books at about the same time. Doug had reviewed The Best Land Under Heaven, a non-fiction book that came out shortly after I wrapped up writing The Hunger, for the NY Times and I wonder if that helped influence his decision to write Old Bones.
