Chat with Ken Liu - author of The Grace of Kings | Interview
Hey nerds! I was so excited to get to sit down and interview Ken Liu and have a conversation about his stories - particularly The Paper Menagerie and The Dandelion Dynasty. As two of Liu's book made my top 10 this year, this is an author I've pretty much put on my "buy anything he writes" list. If you already love his books are haven't read any yet, this is a great conversation to get to know how and why he writes.
