Hello, I've just started the audio for Bewitched and was curious where did you get the idea for Memnon's name? When I first heard his name I instantly thought of the spirit "Manon" who was invoked in The Craft movie, was that an influence? How did you come up with the idea for this story?
Laura Thalassa
Gah, you know, it's been so long that I cannot exactly tell you why I decided on Memnon as a name, besides the fact that most readers would hear it and get an ancient vibe from it. It was one of the first and oldest details I came up with for this story idea (which I began somewhere around 2016/2017). I decided to keep Memnon's name as is, despite the fact that it is not Sarmatian as a nod to my first inception of the idea. But it is pure coincidence that it is similar to "Manon" from The Craft (which I've never actually seen)!

With book series, after the first one, I loose a bit interest as you almost know how it goes sometimes or it gets too verbose but jeez both with the bargainer and the 4 horsemen it's really the opposite... can't wait for Death to be out!! I really love your writing style... you give the right amount of description and don't get lost in rabbit holes telling not useful things about the story! which should I read next?
