In the latest interview on The Read Carpet, Gemma dives deep into The Scarlet Alchemist by Kylie Lee Baker. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat, introducing you to magic that can raise the dead! Our host, Gemma, asked questions about setting the book in a re-imagined China, social commentary on the rich, and how Kylie’s mixed lineage (Japanese, Chinese, and Irish-American) has influenced her writing.
Alchemists need to break themselves into pieces. They want to rebuild the world around them so desperately that they would give their blood, body or soul. But people in power cannot fathom breaking a world that already bows to them.
