For this episode of GenreTainment we are chatting with author Erin M. Evans. She is best known for writing novels set in the Forgotten Realms world, which is both enjoyed by fans as novels and as a Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game setting. Her fourth novel set in this fantasy world is called The Adversary and is one of six books in The Sundering series, which promises to make big changes in the world of Faerun.

Erin tells us how she went from graduating with a degree in anthropology to writing for one of the most popular fantasy settings out there. We get hints of what to expect in her new book which hits bookstores on December 3rd.
