Will there be a sequel to The Only Thing to Fear? 


Yes, kind of! Let me explain: there will be a companion novel to The Only Thing to Fear that will be published in Spring 2018. It's called Live In Infamy, and it will take place in the world of The Only Thing to Fear, but it will feature a bunch of new characters who live in the Western American Territories and who are fighting the Japanese (AKA the Empire of the Rising Sun). 

Can you tell us more about Live In Infamy? 
Sure! It's about a sixteen-year-old guy named Ren who grows up on the Californian coast, in a world where the Japanese won WWII and colonized the western half of the United States. This book will feature, in no particular order: super powers, spies, a big undercover mission, a fancy ball, a huge battle, and maybe some lighthearted moments tossed in! 

Will Zara or Bastian or Uncle Red be featured in the companion novel to The Only Thing to Fear? 
Maybe! Maybe not! I have to keep a poker face, I'm afraid. 

How did you get the idea for The Only Thing to Fear? 
I'm a big history nerd  +  I love asking 'what if' questions  +  I adore X-Men An idea for a book!
