Amy asked Mark Lawrence:

If you were sent on a magical quest which other 4 fantasy authors would you take with you?

Mark Lawrence That rather depends on the nature of the quest. If the chances of survival were essentially zero I would take authors I don't like with me, or ones I felt the world would be better off without!

If the quest required a cool head and military thinking - then Myke Cole, as a former serviceman and mercenary. Also his selfless nature would make him likely to come after me when I got in trouble!

If it were a sword & sorcery affair then Doug Hulick because he's damn near seven foot tall and a skilled swordsman.

If it required the gentle arts of negotiation then Mazarkis Williams because she's ridiculously reasonable and polite.

And, probably George RR Martin because it would be fun to have a chat with him.

Scott Shjefte asked Mark Lawrence:

"He has held secret level clearance with both US and UK governments. At one point he was qualified to say 'this isn't rocket science ... oh wait, it actually is'.' Hey me too except secret clearance in USA was with BAE. Rocket science I did was mostly launched from guns and from ships, so what 'branch' of rocket science did you work with? Plasma and rail guns were cool.
