Q1. Would you like to introduce yourself to your readers?
Absolutely, thank you for the offer. My name is Brian Sieteski, and I am a 33 year old former active duty US Army soldier. I am a loving father to my young daughter. I am a dog lover as I have three large dogs of my own. I am currently engaged.
Q2. Congratulations for your debut book sir. What’s the significance of the title “Humanity’s Gauntlet”?
Humanity’s Gauntlet would be the title of the series. The book title being the Archons Rise. The series title is significant in the sense that the story is impactful to humanity and the trials faced throughout the storyline.
Q3. What do you hope your readers take away from this book?
I hope that readers of the book take away the complexity of the world today and even in fictional worlds. I also hope the readers enjoy the story itself.
Q4. Who is your favourite author and why?
My favorite author would likely be Orson Scott Card. He is the author of the book/series Ender’s game. To me this was one of the most inspirational science fiction novels and series I ever read.
Q5. What was the first thought which came to your mind that actually persuaded you to write your own book?
That is a great question, and difficult for me to answer. What I can say is that writing a book is something I always wanted to do, and I found an interesting concept that I wanted to create my own story and world around.
Q6. Which character inspired you the most and how?
The main character Dante Light is the focus of the story. His character is designed to show how overwhelming, but also human government can be in times of crisis.
Q7. What did you learn while writing this book?
More things than I can count! If I had to provide a general answer it would be that it is easy to start a story, however the most difficult part is putting in the time and effort to complete the story and maintain a cohesive storyline throughout the book.
Q8. What were the difficulties you faced while writing this book?
The most difficult challenge I faced when writing this book was honestly just getting the beginning started. I wanted the story to seem as plausible as possible given the fictional world the events are taking place in.
Q9.Which is the one thing that writing changed in you?
While I learned a great deal from writing, I wouldn’t want to say it changed me as a person. I would want to say that my personality and writing style was shown throughout the story I wrote.
Q10. Any message for your readers?
Thank you so much for reading my story! I really hope you enjoy the setting it was placed in as well as the fast paced plot.
Thanks a lot, wishing you good luck sir! Thanks for sparing time from your busy schedule.
