Dead Reign by T.A. Pratt – Interview

Dead Reign by T.A. Pratt

Fantasy author T.A. Pratt told SCI FI Wire that his latest novel, Dead Reign, is the third book in his series about Marla Mason, badass sorcerer and protector of the East Coast city of Felport.

“The essential premise here is Marla vs. Death,” Pratt said in an interview. “I knew–as part of the unwritten backstory of the series that exists in my head–that Marla’s magical dagger of office was actually the angel of death’s terrible sword, which Death lost to a sorcerer long ago in a bet. Now, many decades later, Death wants the dagger back, so he comes after Marla and asks politely. She refuses rudely. So he banishes Marla into exile and says he’ll hold her city hostage until she turns over his property.”
