hm, ouy of curiosity, is there a third fence book in the works? I especially adored your characterization of nic and seiji, so im excited if there is!
Sarah Rees Brennan I think it's agreed that it's time for more fencing that fits in with the structure leading up to the championship, so more graphic novels should come next, but Fence is a fabulous world and there's a lot of scope there--so in future there might be graphic novels, novels (written by me or someone else), or who knows what exciting thing... In any case, thank you for asking me and I'm so happy you liked what I did with Seiji and Nicholas: Seiji's was my favourite POV to write (in part because of his dad... :))

in other lands is my all time favorite book and it saved me in 2020. thank you. in your mind, is golden bi or pan or something of the sort?
Sarah Rees Brennan Aw, thank you so much--stories give me great comfort and I'm so glad to have given you comfort too! Especially in our year of greatly needing comfort. As regards Golden, I don't want to be one of those writers who do representation outside of but not within the novel--but definitely I wouldn't rule it out, your Golden headcanons are valid, and maybe someday 'twill be addressed in... another tale in the world. Maybe!

Will there be any further books in the Sabrina series now that the show has been cancelled?
Sarah Rees Brennan You are so kind to ask! I did hope to write a book 4, and had tentative plans for a little more time with Zelda and Theo, and the beginnings of Sabrina and Nick coming back to each other (I felt terrible giving him a hard time and her so much uncertainty about love, life and identity in book 3 in preparation for Part 3, but I knew certainty was coming in Part 4 before I knew anything else). But with the cancellation--and other stuffs--perhaps it would just have been too sad. Thank you again for asking. I'll always be a little wistful about book 4, but I had so much fun in that magical world, and I loved Sabrina, Zelda, Hilda, Ambrose, Prudence, Nick, Harvey, Roz, Theo, Lilith and Salem a lot.

Hi Sarah, I'm a huge fan of In Other Lands and the Lexicon's Trilogy. There isn't no hope of seeing them translated into Italian, sooner or later? I love them with the power of a thousand suns... <3 <3 <3
Sarah Rees Brennan Thank you for loving them! <3 <3 <3 We've been talking about the Demon's Lexicon being translated into Italian... fingers crossed for all of them! I'd love it.

I will solidly admit that I haven't read "The Demon's Covenant," but now I will be. I just have to ask ... is the one off mention of "Arthur Dee" based off the son of the alchemist John Dee? I was researching Arthur Dee and Google kept picking up on this one mention. But then wouldn't supply if I was right. I always get very excited to know if anyone actually knows of Arthur Dee apart from me, since he's so niche.
Sarah Rees Brennan Yes, great catch. ;)

I'm a huge fan of In Other Lands! Were there any particular books that inspired it or that you would recommend? Thank you!
Sarah Rees Brennan Oh thank you, and yes! I was especially inspired by Tamora Pierce's Tortall series, especially her 'The Immortals' series. And the Narnia books of course. And I'm always inspired by Diana Wynne Jones--I can't recommend her books highly enough.

Sarah Rees Brennan It has been translated to Spanish, yes! As 'el camino de la bruja,' published by Puck! I don't know how many words it has in Spanish, but it's a quick wee book.
