Callie Hart on Quicksilver and Brimstone

Watch bestselling author Callie Hart as she discusses her smash-hit Fae & Alchemy series with host Jay Kristoff.

Originally presented on Thursday 9 October 2025 by The Wheeler Centre, in partnership with RMIT.

The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares – but it turns out they're real. When Saeris Fane, a thief hiding secret alchemical powers, lands herself right in the middle of a centuries-long conflict, she mistakenly binds herself to the mysterious Fae warrior Kingfisher. His past is murky. His attitude stinks. And he's the only way Saeris is going to make it home…

Blending high fantasy, magic and a steamy enemies-to-lovers romance, 'Quicksilver' is the first book in British-born, US-based author Callie Hart’s addictive series. Originally self-published, the book found an enthusiastic audience on TikTok before being snapped up by a traditional publisher and subsequently optioned by Netflix.

In this session, Hart sat down to talk all things 'Quicksilver' and revealed some tantalising details about 'Brimstone' (book two of Fae & Alchemy).
