Her dad, who was in the Navy, co-conspired with her on some specific technical details, dreaming up ways to make the fantastical Mors Navis come to life. The book was inspired by the movie Mad Max: Fury Road.
Coming from a family of avid boaters, Natalie spent a lot time on the sea.
I recently had dinner with Natalie and had the chance to ask her about the inspiration for the book. We can all feel small in facing the problems of the world, but when we unite with others to do good we are powerful and mighty. This is exactly the book that today’s teens need to read too. A book about healing from betrayal and allowing ourselves to trust. A powerful sisterhood bent on taking down corruption, no matter what the cost. It was exactly the book I needed to read. Plus, Seafire has been billed one of this year’s most anticipated fantasies. It was hard to not get caught up in the excitement of the moment. While we were there, Natalie had received the news about her book deal. Parker, at Madcap Retreats along with my Winged Pen pal Julie Artz in March 2017 at a Writing Cross-Culturally workshop. But when I read the blurb for Seafire I thought, hmmm. I’m a very hard sell on books set at sea. Is this boy the key to taking down Aric and the Bullets? Or is he an enemy implant who will destroy everything they’ve worked for?
He is taken captive aboard the otherwise all-women-ship while Caledonia decides what to do with him. Caledonia becomes the captain of her own ship, the Mors Navis, and acquires a crew of girls like her and Pisces, those who have lost everything because of Aric and the Bullets. The crew’s mission: stay alive and destroy the Bullets and their evil warlord.īut then Pisces survives an attack thanks to help from a Bullet who claims to be a deserter from Aric’s crew. She and her best friend Pisces are left to fend for themselves. Caledonia Styx’s family was killed by the bloodthirsty warlord Aric Athair and his viscous army, the Bullets.
