54. [Interview] Gabriel Bergmoser talks about The Hunted, adapting his book into a major movie, and how to write gripping stories
Gabriel Bergmoser and I sat down to discuss The Hunted (his latest thriller novel) in depth. This is the third time I've interviewed him, and somehow he keeps getting better. The Hunted is my favourite book of his and it was enthralling to dive into the mind of its creator. Enjoy!

Great show
I just listened to the interview with Gabriel Bergmoser and found it such a fantastic insight into how his novels and other texts are written. Informative and easy to listen to.
Great podcast
I love this show, but you should take that recommendation with a grain of salt because I'm also the host...
