Join us, two life-long friends and avid fantasy readers, on a journey through some of the most beloved fantasy book series out there. Our weekly podcast is filled with a mix of attempted humor (admittedly sometimes poorly executed) and in-depth analysis. In each episode, we will dive into 5-7 chapters of a chosen book series, providing a detailed summary and insightful analysis of literary themes, writing style, world-building, races, and magic systems. Whether you’re a die-hard fantasy book lover or simply looking for a fun book club to join, we invite you to be our friend and join in on our discussion. So, grab your favorite reading spot and come along with us as we explore the enchanting worlds of fantasy literature together.
Dane and Jacqui discuss the nightmares they would inflict on their cult.

They also have major updates for the future of the show! This episode contains spoilers for the entirety of parts four and five of Murtagh, the fifth book in The World of Eragon by Christopher Paolini.
