Readers' Most Anticipated Books for Fall 2025
David Wooddell
David Wooddell asked Jacqueline Carey:

Are there poets who inspire you in your writing? Do you write poetry yourself? I've noticed that some of your writing has a poetic feel to it.

Jacqueline Carey Not directly, but I did study a lot of poetry as an undergraduate, so I'm sure the influence is in there somewhere! Mostly the usual suspects like the Romantics, but I do like John Donne, T.S. Eliot, William Butler Yeats. And yes, every once in a very great while, I'll write a poem.

Britt B asked Jacqueline Carey:

I cried when I read the last Kushiel's and Naamah's series- because it was ending. Those are my go to reads and have been my favorite books that absolutely no one has managed to beat for me personally. Any chance that you add any more to these series or create a similar type? Wishful thinking...

William asked Jacqueline Carey:

Hi Jacqueline, do you think in time you will find the energy and inspiration to recreate an epic saga like Phedre's trilogy? I keep trying to find a book series that moved me like Phedre did and nothing I found is at that level.
