JQM LITERARY SPOTLIGHT PRESENTS The Dungeon Alaria 2: The Creator’s Daughter by Joshua Kern

 

 

FIRST, LET’S GET TO KNOW YOU A BIT. TELL US SOMETHING UNIQUE ABOUT YOURSELF:

Something unique, about myself? I come from a large family with nine kids comprised of five sisters and three brothers, plus me. It was reportedly rather crowded growing up, I don’t remember though. I can’t really remember anything before I was eleven or so. I get intensely anxious about everything and holding down a job in the cooperate world was leaving me drained each night. Which led to me following my passion and becoming a writer.

WHAT IS THE GENRE AND AUDIENCE FOR THIS BOOK:

Gamelit and Portal Fantasy with a tilt towards the YA readers.

WHAT WAS THE INSPIRED YOU TO WRITE THIS BOOK:

I had just started writing the first book in the companion series ‘The Game of Gods’ and was in the middle of planning out the rest of the series, when the story burrowed into my mind. At first, I wasn’t entirely convinced that I wanted to introduce multiple worlds into the story. Then I finished that first book, and started writing Alaria, just I could get it out of my head. That didn’t really work, instead it set the tone for both series and cemented the storyline and what I wanted to do with them. I always try to make my stories different, and as one my reviewers said “Who brings and entire house with them to another world? Who does that?”

TELL US ABOUT YOUR BOOK:

“The Dungeon Alaria 2: The Creator’s Daughter”, is the second book in a duology about a young man who is taken to another world with his house. The story follows Liam as he finds love, family, and plenty of people who want to take what is his. This becomes especially prevalent when it becomes known that he has the ability to control dungeons, something that is vital to the survival of all species in the world. No spoilers, but it does have a happy ending.
