When writer Emma Newman published the five urban fantasy novels in The Split Worlds series, it was clear you needed to read all of them to get the full story. But as she discusses in the following email interview about her new sci-fi psychological thriller Atlas Alone (paperback, Kindle), while it is also part of a series, it’s not one you need to read all of, or even in order.
With Before Mars (paperback, Kindle), science fiction writer Emma Newman is continuing to explore the fictional universe she created with 2015’s Planetfall and continued a year later with After Atlas. But in the following email interview, Newman explains why, unlike a lot of sci-fi series, her novels are not only stand-alone stories, but can actually be read in whatever order you chose.
