I stumbled accross Ana dressed in blood one day and i am so glad that i did. What was your inspiration for for the duo of books?

Kendare Blake I'm glad you did, too! Anna came about simply from a desire to write blood and entrails. I love horror, grew up on it, and hadn't written any in a long time. So when that name showed up, Anna Dressed in Blood, like a whisper in my ear, it was all the inspiration I required.

Julia Alfaro asked Kendare Blake:

For non-queens, are gifts generally inherited genetically? For example, can two giftless parents have a poisoner child, or can two elementals have a naturalist, or even a child born to the Arrons be giftless? Also, how common is being giftless on Fennbirn, and are they considered less than people with gifts because of it?
