Goodreads asked Dan Koboldt:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Dan Koboldt I've always been a fan of stage magic. I got the idea for The Rogue Retrieval a few years ago when I read a news article about Teller (the quiet half of Penn & Teller) and his efforts to obtain patent/copyright protection for his illusions. I started thinking about how technology has really changed performance magic, and I wondered what it would be like if a modern illusionist somehow got back to medieval Europe.

H.S. Rivney

H.S. Rivney asked Dan Koboldt:

What do you think the sub genre is for "scientific fiction"? This is my favorite subject to write about. I like the challenge of opening an obscure or difficult subject and make it educational and interesting by making it entertaining. I've covered genetics, asteroids, AI, bubonic plague, chirality, DNA, I love it.
