J.M. McDermott Interviewed on Amazon

Just posted an interview with McDermott, author of Last Dragon.Fantasy is not a genre that traditionally values experimentation. Usually, fantasy--especially epic fantasy--is where readers want good to conquer evil and true love to be won and all that. There's absolutely nothing wrong with a little mental comfort food now and then, but I hungered to read the kind of fantasies that take these particular tools and tropes and attempt to make an art form out of them. Not everyone is going to like this kind of fantasy. That's okay. I hope that enough people are out there, like me, that want to sink their teeth into a fantasy novel that honestly - arrogantly--strives for high artistry.
