#164 - Author Chat w/ Fonda Lee

On this episode, we welcome back author Fonda Lee to chat about her latest novel, Jade Legacy, the conclusion of her Green Bone Saga trilogy. We last had Fonda on the show four years ago when she had just published Jade City, the first book in the series. We catch up with Fonda's thoughts on the growth of Asian-inspired fantasy over the last few years, as well as chat about the themes and inspirations for her expansive world-building over the last two novels of the series.
