The idea for the book came up one day when Suzanne was in front of the TV. On one channel, she saw a group of contestants a reality show. In the other, images recorded during the Iraq War. The combination of the two themes was also influenced by the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur. The result? Success. As we know, the title was the first in a trilogy, adapted later - and also successfully - for the cinema. Publisher: Rocco Pages: 400
