And I don't care if I can't write another word again, but I need help. And I started realizing that I can't live like this for the rest of my life. And then this past November, I had, you know, this panic attack that went on for two weeks straight. I just had this overwhelming sense of panic and dread. I didn't even know they were panic attacks until my psychiatrist later told me. MAAS: It was a couple days of just, like, pure panic and not - panic attacks. And I would have these, I guess, like, episodes, as - I called them episodes, where. I was very hesitant to get help, mostly because I had just heard horror stories from other writers and creative types about how, you know, medication - the medication they were put on really messed with their creativity, and they couldn't create once they were put on medication. And those are things that I myself have struggled with, especially recently. I mean, Bryce goes through, you know, depression, anxiety, PTSD. I mean, this book actually - I mean, I don't want to give any spoilers away for the book.
GARCIA-NAVARRO: I understand that you wrote this book at a particularly difficult time. MAAS: Yes, lots of interesting things - twists and turns and then a slow-build romance between the two of them that was a lot of fun for me to write. GARCIA-NAVARRO: And interesting things ensue. And Bryce gets paired up with Hunt Athalar, who is this notorious fallen angel. And they think they catch the murderer, and the guy goes to jail.Īnd then the book jumps ahead two years to when the murders start up again, and they realize that the wrong person was put in jail. And one night, she's out partying, and the majority of her friends are all brutally murdered. She's got her close-knit group of friends. And when the book first begins, she is a bit of a party girl. So Bryce is a half-human, half-fay 20-something-year-old who works at this magical antiquities dealer. Tell us about Bryce and Hunt and how they joined forces. The two main characters, though, are supernatural. Ultimately, we should say this book is a murder mystery. The first installment is called "Crescent City: House Of Earth And Blood," and it is a murder mystery set in a world with angels, werewolves, demons, witches and fairies with a love story at its heart.
Maas is the bestselling fantasy author of two blockbuster series, and now she has a new one.
So it may be the moment to dig into a big, epic fantasy novel that takes you literally to another world. Life is, yes, pretty scary right now, and you may very well be spending a lot of time at home.
