This was my first time writing a book with a female lead—a strong, powerful protagonist at the heart of it all.

The story began as what I like to call a “fun project.” After finishing Highest Society, I needed a breather—something lighter, something different. This book was meant to be a short escape from the grim and heavy world I had just built. It was supposed to be a standalone, a one-off adventure to clear my head before diving back into the darkness.

​

But something strange happened. I couldn’t leave it behind. The world still had more to say. The journey wasn’t done. And the characters—especially Thalia—refused to fade away. What began as a standalone has now evolved into a planned five-book series.

​

I never saw it coming. Hence why the second book, The Devourer’s Path, serves as a kind of soft reset—expanding the universe while staying true to the heart of the original.

​

As for the title? It rhymes with Birds of a Feather by Billie Eilish—and that just felt right. It such a good song too, give it a listen!

Favorite Scene?
One of my favorite moments to write was the build-up to Thalia unleashing her Supernova. The anticipation, the tension, the sheer weight of the moment—it was so satisfying. She’s such a compelling character, and that scene still gives me chills.
