Questions to the author

This is your latest book. Is it your best?
Well, it was pre-read by 200 beta readers and they all said yes! Personally, I would say that it is certainly my most ambitious novel. It takes place all over the world and with multiple viewpoint characters. I'd say that the previous dozen novels I published were all leading up to this.

What inspired you to write The Gates?
I wanted to combine the best elements of The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and other epic fictional platforms with something entirely new. My characters are not facing zombies or white walkers, they are facing something completely different, and it starts with the mysterious gates.

Will there be sequels?
Oh yes! This book is just the beginning. The story will take place over at least three books, but maybe more. I think that horror could really do with some epic storytelling and this is my attempt. I want to build a world that horror readers can live in for years, not days.

So in closing, how would you sum up The Gates?
Independence Day and Hellraiser had a baby and this is the result.
