Author Lani Forbes discusses her new young adult historical fantasy series: Age of the Seventh Sun. This new series is a trilogy, with Books 1 and 2 (The Seventh Sun and The Jade Bones) available in bookstores now. These books are inspired by MesoAmerican mythology and, in particular, the origin myth of the five suns. In creating this series, Lani has woven together a fun mix of fantasy, history and romance set in a rich and complex world, based on the legends and history of the Aztec and Maya people.
