Andrew Peterson talks with Michael Foust about the origins of The Wingfeather Saga, the childhood inspirations behind his fantasy world, and why C.S. Lewis moved him to start writing. The series has been adapted into an Angel Studios series. He also opens up about his deep connection to Rich Mullins, the legacy of Mullins’ music, and the powerful live album that pays tribute to one of Christian music’s most beloved songwriters. We talk fantasy, faith, storytelling, music, and what’s next for Peterson — including a new book he’s quietly working on.
