Ankur asked Joseph Delaney:

Can u tell us, which book inspired you the most? Any recent reads, which touched and moved you? Also in your Spook series, the voice of Tom is so sincere, so honest. How did you achieve that?

Joseph Delaney My biggest inspiration has been the ‘Lord of the Rings’ books which increased my interest in fantasy and world-building. Recent books which I have enjoyed ….
‘The Stories of your life and others’ by Ted Chiang (a collection of SF stories) and ‘The Call’ by Peadar O’Guilin.
As for how I achieved Tom’s voice, I am not sure. It was just waiting there inside my head.

I really feel empty every time I finish reading one of your books. What would you recommend for us to read while trying not to go mad waiting for your next books ? I could read all of the Spook's series again, but I did it already not too long ago.. I need your help, Sir ! Thank you so much for the great times ! Lex, France
