Paul Kearney, author of The Monarchies of God and The Ten ThousandThis interview’s been a long time comin’.

Many folk around the Internet will claim that there’s no author that deserves a wider audience than Paul Kearney. He’s best known for his five volume series The Monarchies of God, which is due to be republished later this year in an updated omnibus edition. Paul also has another upcoming novel, The Ten Thousand being published later this year by Solaris Books as well as the concluding volume to his Sea Beggars Trilogy. A pretty hectic year for an author who almost swore off writing entirely.

Paul has been the essence of patience as we’ve tried to get this interview to see the light of day. For some reason the Internet gods seem to be conspiring against us and, despite all of our various efforts, Paul and I cannot seem to connect to get the second part of the interview into my hands! Talk about weird. Instead of delaying any longer, Paul and I decided to run the first part of the interview and, with any luck, we’ll be able to bring you the second half somewhere down the line.

So, without any more delays, enjoy!
