And I like that it didn’t have a happy ending – it had a challenging ending, one that left us wanting more from the characters, one that said “these characters are going to grow or die.” I think it’s the deepest, grittiest, and cleverest. TD – The Empire Strikes Back, no question.
Lightsabre – Which of the Star Wars movies stands out as your personal favourite, and why? Deep down, Star Wars is about the interplay between spirit and technology, whether we will find a way to have a healthy relationship to our technology, or be seduced by its power and fall victim to its corruptive side. That’s a very relevant question for our time, and I think it’s what makes Star Wars so popular.
There’s some of that in Star Wars, but there’s also an emphasis on technology, and on how it interacts with one’s spirit. But, at it’s core, I think that epic fantasy is about man’s relationship to his spirit, whether he is learning to truly know himself, or resist the forces of darkness, stay true to his own heart, or some similar question. TD – I’m asked this question a lot, and I probably answer differently every time. What similarities do you find between those stories and the themes of Lucas’ Star Wars films? Lightsabre – You’ve been writing in various genres since your first book back in 1989, writing D&D and fantasy.
