She also discussed how she knew this book was just the first in a trilogy, as well as the book's exploration of gender identity.  * Charlie Jane talked about the worldbuilding that went into "Victories Greater than Death," the challenges of writing the forthcoming second book in the series, and the possibility of returning to this world for other books. * Charlie Jane shared the future of her popular San Francisco reading series, Writers with Drinks.   Listen here or on: iTunes | Stitcher | Spotify | Google | TuneIn | Amazon | Player FM | Deezer Watch on YouTube   Links www.charliejaneanders.com www.facebook.com/charliejane www.instagram.com/charliejaneanders/
