Description
Interview with author Judith Starkston focused on her historical fantasy series, the Tesha series, and specifically the fourth book, The Flights of Treason. Starkston discussed the challenges of marketing a niche genre like Hittite fantasy and the interest in the historical figure Puduhepa (Tesha), who is a marquee character in Turkey. She also shared her experience of using Tesha's personal seal (very cool!) to sign her books and the unique rituals and magic in Hittite culture.
