Fuse by Julianna Baggott: Interview and Giveaway

Posted on 10:00 PM by Unknown

When the world ended, those who dwelled within the Dome were safe. Inside their glass world the Pures live on unscarred, while those outside—the Wretches—struggle to survive amidst the smoke and ash.

Believing his mother was living among the Wretches, Partridge escaped from the Dome to find her. Determined to regain control over his son, Willux, the leader of the Pures, unleashes a violent new attack on the Wretches. It’s up to Pressia Belze, a young woman with her own mysterious past, to decode a set of cryptic clues from the past to set the Wretches free. 

An epic quest that sweeps readers into a world of beautiful brutality, Fusecontinues the story of two people fighting to save their futures—and change the fate of the world.

1. Your world-building is phenomenal, how did you create the world in Fuse?

In PURE, book I in THE PURE TRILOGY, I did a lot of the world-building -- ash, fusings, Beasts, Dusts, the distant Dome -- so in FUSE, book II, I had the opportunity to stretch the canvas, geographically and visually. I also had time to delve back into the psychologically twisted world of the Dome -- a true delight.

2. Is there any character(s) that you feel more attached to then any other, why?

Of course I love my main characters, but there are those smaller characters, like Iralene and Arvin Weed, who show up in FUSE and take hold. Both are so untrustworthy and yet also vulnerable, I can't help but love writing about them. Their motivations are always hidden and unexpected. 

3. Can you give us a sneak peak of what to expect in Fuse?

In addition to the above, I'll say that both love stories get more complex and messier. I've enjoyed mining these characters -- heart-wise -- and their stories certainly reveal a larger look at the question of what endures the apocalypse. 

4. Are you currently working on any other books?

BURN, book III in THE PURE TRILOGY, comes out one year from this month. So I am still immersed (drowning?) in this world ...
