What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
This was the sequel to The Myth Hunter. I had always hoped that The Myth Hunter could be the beginning of a series of books about Elisa Hill, a globe-trotting adventurer in the vein of Indiana Jones who seeks out the supernatural myths and legends of the world. While doing research on legends for The Myth Hunter, I came across one about the four Dragon Kings of China, and the title “Dragon Kings of the Orient” popped into my head. That seemed like such a great title and as I did more research, I learned about Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, and he seemed like such a fun character and an excellent addition. The book sort of grew from there.
