Barren Island Books character interview: Andee Tilbrook

30/10/2014

0 Comments

 
Welcome to another interview-with-a-twist in the Barren Island Books series! The rules remain the same: guests imagine they’re being exiled to a remote island with only five books for company, selected from the categories I give them. But the twist is, these guests aren’t authors but fictional characters.

My interviewee this week is Andee Tilbrook, the protagonist of Chasing Azrael – the first book in the Deathly Insanity series by Hazel Butler. Andee is a Gothic archaeologist with a very unusual ability: she can see ghosts. We caught up with her shortly before the start of the mysterious events related in Chasing Azrael …

Welcome to another interview-with-a-twist in the Barren Island Books series! The rules remain the same: guests imagine they’re being exiled to a remote island with only five books for company, selected from the categories I give them. But the twist is, these guests aren’t authors but fictional characters.

My interviewee this week is Anna Martoka, a key character in The Lokana Chronicles by Kay Kauffman. Anna lives with her fiancé, John, in the small town of Riverdale, Iowa, where she works as a projectionist at the local movie theater. Since moving to Riverdale she has been troubled by strange dreams, which she suspects may be connected in some way to the early childhood she doesn't remember. The only person who can answer her questions is her mother, who she doesn't get on with – but Anna is determined to find some answers.

Welcome to another interview-with-a-twist in the Barren Island Books series! The rules remain the same: guests imagine they’re being exiled to a remote island with only five books for company, selected from the categories I give them. But the twist is, these guests aren’t authors but fictional characters.

My interviewee this week, because I couldn't quite resist, is Alyssia Gale – the protagonist of my very own WIP Dawn Rising. Alyssia has lived in a home ever since the age of ten, when she suffered an accident that killed her parents and left her with severe memory loss. Now, at seventeen, she is experiencing increasingly dark and vivid dreams that threaten to overshadow reality: dreams in which she takes on one of four alternate identities in a completely different world. We caught up with her at Woodleigh House, the home where she's lived for nearly eight years …

Welcome to an exciting new spin-off of Barren Island Books! The rules remain the same: guests imagine they’re being exiled to a remote island with only five books for company, selected from the categories I give them. But the twist is, these guests aren’t authors but fictional characters.

My interviewee this week is DI Frank Lyle, the protagonist of the DI Frank Lyle Mystery Series by Juliet B Madison. It’s late 1992 and DI Lyle is about to confront an old adversary in his fifth published case, Best Served Cold.
