Goodreads asked James Hockley:

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

James Hockley Originally, inspiration for Fear's Union was from a potent mix of Tolkien and the Chemical Brothers. Check this out:

Since then there have been various other influencers, but I like to think that most of the ideas occur to me while I daydream (and listen to the Chemical Brothers).
