Sharon Mcfalls asked Gena Showalter:

What kind of resurch did you do?

Gena Showalter For the Lords of the Underworld? I researched different versions of Pandora's box, used the details I liked and discarded or twisted the rest to suit my needs. Also did some research about Greek and Titan mythology, Budapest and disease Torin could have spread throughout the centuries.

For The Darkest Torment, specifically, I researched dog training more than anything. In fact, I got a lot of amazing tips from fellow author (and amazing woman!) Julie Kagawa. She knows her stuff (and any mistakes are mine)

For the most part, though, I prefer to make up my own mythology, towns, jobs and histories... so I get every detail right lol
