A New Dark Romantasy Voice: Author Shalini Abeysekara

SPECIAL GUEST INTERVIEW: SHALINI ABEYSEKARAIf you’re a fan of dark fantasy and slow-burn romance, then you're going to love the gripping duology series This Monster of Mine by Shalini Abeysekara.This Monster of Mine: A thrilling, dark, slow-burn romantasy debut, where a prosecutor returns to a corrupt city to seek revenge against the unknown man who threw her off a tower and begins a dangerous game of lies with the judge who may her assailant, her ally, or hold her heart. This 5⭐️ read by Canadian author Shalini Abeysekara took me completely by surprise. A book I stumbled upon at the library then became utterly consumed by. The writing, the character dynamics, the unique world and magic system - it was all exactly what I needed after reading a series of romantasy books that felt like the same story over and over. I don't bring authors on the podcast often, and when I do, it's because I absolutely love what they are bringing to the book space. In the Offscript Author Interview Series, I dig deep to get answers to questions you haven't heard anywhere else and glimpse into the world the series takes place in and get a deeper understanding and connection to the brain behind these books that have stood out to me from so many others. In this interview, we get at the heart of this series:<ul><li> What inspired it? </li><li>What can you expect from book 1: This Monster of Mine and book 2: This Blade of Ours (releasing June 30, 2026!)</li><li>What makes the main characters in this series so unique and compelling?</li><li>What does the world and magic system look like?</li><li>How did Shalini's previous career as a corporate lawyer influence the themes of this series? And more! </li></ul> ✨Perfect for fans of: The Song of Achilles, Circe, The Odyssey, Daggermouth, The Hunger Games, Red Rising, Keri Lake, Anathema EPISODE CHAPTERS:00:00:00 - Introducing Shalini Abeysekara and Her Gripping Romantasy Series00:04:27 - Exploring the Tone and Dystopian Feel of the Series00:08:05 - Shalini's Inspiration, Legal Themes, and Dystopian Catharsis00:14:56 - Meet Sarai and Cadra: The Heart of this Romantasy Series00:19:13 - Shalini's Favourite Qualities of Sarai and Kadra00:22:59 - Unveiling the Magic System and "This Blade of Ours" Pacing00:28:18 - Exploring Faragathe, Fantasy Freedom and Dystopian Themes00:37:40 - From Law to Writing: Shalini's Creative Journey and Future Plans00:45:27 - Fun Questions, Author's Message, and Episode ConclusionArtwork Credit: Art images reflected in episode graphics were created by the talented <a href="https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCrccnNMou29QFFscvmsj-iw" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"> ⁨@BellaBergolts⁩ </a> #bookpodcast #fantasybookpodcast #booktubetbr #fantasyfemmefatales #booktok #fantasybooks #darkfantasyromance #darkromancebooks #darkromancereader #thismonsterofmine #thisbladeofours #authorinterview #canadianauthor #newreleasebooks #newbookreleases #newbook
