Hi, I’m indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, Christopher D. Schmitz is joining me to talk about his book, A Kiss of Daggers.
What’s it about?
A Kiss of Daggers is an action-packed, character-driven fantasy adventure set in the mystic land of honor, intrigue, and spellpunk arcana called Arcadeax.
The protagonist, Remy Keaton, trapped in the fey world by a childhood tragedy, faces forbidden love, dueling contests, and the horrors of Cathair Dé’s fighting arena.
The story unfolds with blood, elves, and duels, as Remy navigates a world filled with curses, promises, and the high cost of choices.

Christopher D. Schmitz will take us into the world of Arcadeax with an excerpt from A Kiss of Daggers, exploring elements like forbidden love, dueling contests, and the intricate fey lore. We'll delve into the series name, gaining spoiler-free highlights of what’s to come.
The discussion will focus on Remy Keaton’s journey from an unknown starting point to a perilous ending, unraveling worldbuilding details, politics, and the unique magic system of Arcadeax.
