In this episode of The Conversation Coffee Break, join host Nadine Matheson as she chats with the remarkable Marvellous Michael Anson about her newly released epic fantasy novel, Firstborn of the Sun. Today marks a significant milestone as we celebrate the book's publication day!


Marvellous shares the inspiration behind her captivating story, steeped in Yoruba culture and mythology, and how a seemingly ordinary moment, viewing ice caps in the Sahara Desert, sparked the creation of a fantastical world filled with adventure, politics, and complex characters. We delve into the intricacies of character development, the challenges of writing a trilogy, and the importance of identity in a world that often feels unwelcoming.


Listeners will discover how Marvellous navigated her writing journey, the surprising twists her characters took, and the valuable lessons she learned about resilience and self-discovery through her protagonist, Laura.
