About this listen

Author Richard H. Moon, based in Southern California, is an award-winning screenwriter, producer, and (like me) a self-described history buff. His latest book, "To Conquer Death," is set in Ancient Egypt and has the grandeur of an epic historical fantasy adventure. Richard chats with me about the Bronze Age collapse, which occurred in around the 12th century BCE and brought an end to all civilizations worldwide, with the possible exception of the Egyptian Empire, which survived but became severely weakened. The Bronze Age collapse serves as the historical backdrop for his book "To Conquer Death," and there are unsettling parallels between the fall of the Bronze Age and the decline of contemporary society in our own age. We discuss writing historical fantasy fiction, the differences between screenwriting and novel-writing, and about bringing characters to life.
