In my opinion, Barbara Hoffert is the queen of the interview, so it was only fitting that she sit down with Erika Johansen, author of The Queen of the Tearling, the first in a new trilogy.
Erika's book has been getting lots of advance praise (including from our own Amanda Rountree), and it is getting made into a movie starring Emma Watson! It is an adventurous saga about an untested young princess who must claim her throne, learn to become a queen, and combat a malevolent sorceress in an epic battle between light and darkness. Dun, dun, dun!
