Obernewtyn.net: Video Interview & Anniversary Message from Isobelle

Video Interview & Anniversary Message from Isobelle

Back at the Sydney Writers' Festival in May 2009, Penguin interviewed Isobelle and they contacted me, asking if I could discreetly gather some questions from our Theories board to ask her.

As part of their wonderful anniversary gift to us, Sharlene has sent me the video interview - which contains a special message from Isobelle, to us, right at the end!

Many thanks to Penguin, Sharlene, and of course to Isobelle, for taking the time to do this!!

*squees a little*

GL1TT3R @ 08 Sep : 03:09

Thank youu!

Min @ 08 Sep : 03:36

Kayt - try downloading the latest version of flash player? And which browser are you using?

deb @ 08 Sep : 04:59

OML! That was amazing. Thanks Isobelle, Penguin and Min!

Zieria @ 08 Sep : 06:33

Oh wow - that's fantastic!

Thanks so much Min - great questions! *grugs* And you have to love Sharlene and Isobelle for all that they do for us!

I'm especially intrigued by the talk of Elspeth's quest...

cat. @ 08 Sep : 08:30

Awesome. There are all these questions, and she knows the answers!

The new power is so going to be the power to make an unlimited supply of cheesecake. YOu heard it here first

Very cool, though. Thanks for putting this up, Min.

Ness @ 09 Sep : 01:44

I so knew she wouldn't give a very long answer when I saw the question about Seresh

What a great interview! Thanks so much Isobelle, Sharlene and Min!

izzy @ 10 Sep : 02:54

*squee*

oh wow! that's amazing! thank you sooo much Isobelle, Sharlene and Min!

ariadne @ 10 Sep : 09:11

Terrific interview. And the Birthday wishes for the site's 10th anniversary was a lovely addition

Thanks to Sharlene and Min for arranging that, and IC for those wonderful yet evasive answers

emci @ 11 Sep : 00:51

That was awesome! Thankyou so much to Sharlene and Min for putting that up! And of course Isobelle for always keeping us guessing!

cateyes @ 12 Sep : 03:24

WOW! That was awesome! Thanks Penguin, IC and Min for organising that!

Frankie - I wonder if she knows where the teleporting theory came from... I laughed so hard when she said that though!

laurenm_89 @ 13 Sep : 03:48

oooooooooohhhhhhhh! how exciting!

Oh no! loose threads at the end of the Obernewtyn Chronicles!!! that is gonna annoy me - then again, hopefully all will be explained in the beforetime chronicles!

Bunne @ 13 Sep : 08:33

I am so sad that Billy Thunder's coming ahead of the final Legendsong book. I need that book.

Isobelle's right - this truly is an amazing site.

Zara @ 17 Sep : 01:02

oh no! i think i've missed something in the books! whos SERESH???? and what book was she in???

Nef @ 17 Sep : 09:52

I'm still gunning for louis being a Seraphim - you can't bring down my theory!

spider84 @ 21 Sep : 23:43

I think loose threads make sense. In real life there are always unanswered questions you just have to live with, and as much as fantasy is removed from real life, it kind of mimics it in a metaphorical way too.

bambi @ 25 Sep : 02:27

Seresh is in the most recent book Zara, The Stone Key. She is mentioned briefly (though I am unsure what chapter).

That was great! Thanks Isobelle, Sharlene and Min!! Cant wait for the next book though I do wish it wasn't the last but suppose it had to happen sooner or later

cheekygal310 @ 06 Oct : 22:12

Ohh that was so nice:) I think i'll go reread the books now:D Can't wit for The Sending!

thunderous_silence @ 06 Oct : 22:25

That was so good. I agree with Cheekygal. This has inspired me to re-read all the books again!! Thanks Penguin, Min and IC!!

kendra @ 08 Oct : 02:29

oh, now i really wanna read it!! i cant wait till it comes out!!!!
as a writer, stuff like this is quite helpful, u know!
go Obernewtyn.net!! we rock!!

alerose1 @ 14 Oct : 21:28

That was great! Just thought that maybe Seresh is with Ariel and Salmander. Happy 10th Birthday Ober.net

Recneps919 @ 23 Oct : 05:00

This only makes me more eager to read The Sending!

Thanks IC, Penguin, Min and Sharlene!

moo @ 12 Nov : 02:04

I met isobelle at a book talk at my school back in 1989 and just to see her so well and happy and enjoying providing her fans with the best books in the work, makes
me glad to be alive and on this website

Red Queen @ 13 Nov : 02:52

That was great Thanks IC. Thanks Penguin. I'm glad I got to watch that.

Raineth @ 05 Dec : 16:05

wooohooo! What a great interview!

Una @ 12 Dec : 01:31

Ahh, she is so lovely! Can't wait for Darkbane!!

blurrystar @ 06 Feb : 11:22

She's so wonderful. Truly can't wait for Darkbane, but Billy Thunder series is exciting too. I'm re-reading Darkfall at the moment. The words, the poetry! So much more insight now that I'm older.

Moonlight cat @ 05 Jun : 00:36

Personally im glad billy will be complete because i love those books and i nearly fainted when i heard there was not a third one out yet. thank you soooooo much for that clip and thanx IC for your brilliant books.
