Welcome to Tremontaine, where ambition, love affairs, and rivalries dance with deadly results. In this serial, Ellen Kushner and a team of writers return readers to the world of scandal and swordplay introduced in her cult-classic novel Swordspoint. Readers familiar with the series will find a welcome homecoming while new fans will learn what makes Riverside a place they will want to visit again and again.Tremontaine follows Diane, Duchess Tremontaine, whose beauty is matched only by cunning; Rafe Fenton, a handsome young scholar with more passion than sense; Ixkaab Balam, a tradeswoman from afar with skill for swords and secrets; and Micah, a gentle genius whose discoveries herald revolution. Sparks fly as these four lives intersect in a world where politics is everything, and outcasts are tastemakers. Tread carefully, dear reader, and keep your wit sharp as your steel.Written by: Ellen Kushner, Alaya Dawn Johnson, Joel Derfner, Racheline Maltese, Paul Witcover, Tessa Gratton, and Mary Anne Mohanraj.Each author shared a bit about writing their episodes and we’ve collected those posts below!Ellen Kushnerhttp://blog.serialbox.com/ellen-kushner-writing-tremontaine-s2e13-dissolution/Tessa Grattonhttp://blog.serialbox.com/tessa-gratton-writing-tremontaine-s2e2-old-mischief/http://blog.serialbox.com/tessa-gratton-writing-tremontaine-s2e9-heart-liability/Mary Anne Mohanrajhttp://blog.serialbox.com/mary-anne-mohanraj-writing-tremontaine-s2e3-fireworks/http://blog.serialbox.com/mary-anne-mohanraj-writing-tremontaine-s2e6-blood-silk/http://blog.serialbox.com/mary-anne-mohanraj-writing-tremontaine-s2e12-smoke-ashes/Joel Derfnerhttp://blog.serialbox.com/joel-derfner-writing-tremontaine-s2e4-glitters/http://blog.serialbox.com/joel-derfner-writing-tremontaine-s2e10-coming-night/Alaya Dawn Johnsonhttp://blog.serialbox.com/alaya-dawn-johnson-writing-tremontaine-s2e5-alive-home/Racheline Maltese and Paul Witcoverhttp://blog.serialbox.com/racheline-maltese-paul-witcover-writing-tremontaine-s2e8-rushing-wings/Don’t forget to share the love!
