The Book of Three
MAY 25, 2023
The Book of Three
<p>In which we talk about Lloyd Alexander's The Book of Three, the first in The Chronicles of Prydain. It's a great book and a great conversation that gets pretty far afield. </p> <p>We'll be back later in May to talk about Mistborn: The Final Empire, which $1 patrons will get a week early as usual. Then, schedules permitting, in June we will have episodes on the next book in Mistborn and Prydain: The Well of Ascension and The Black Cauldron respectively. That Black Cauldron episode will be <strong>exclusive</strong> to our $5 patrons, so be sure to subscribe to hear that!</p> <p>You can find Nora on twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/NeitherNora" rel="nofollow">@NeitherNora</a> and you can find more of her work on <a href="https://norablake.online/" rel="nofollow">norablake.online</a></p> <p>You can find Autumn on twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/Autumnal_Coffee" rel="nofollow">@autumnal_coffee</a> and you can find their other podcasts at <a href="https://www.patreon.com/exportaudio" rel="nofollow">exportaud.io</a>!</p> <p>Music in this episode was &quot;Skye Cuillin&quot; courtesy of Kevin MacLeod (<a href="https://gate.sc?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.smartsound.com%2Froyalty-free-music%2Fincompetech&amp;token=9063d7-1-1684384137198" rel="nofollow">www.smartsound.com/royalty-free-music/incompetech</a>) Licensed under Creative Commons &quot;Attribution 3.0&quot; <a href="https://gate.sc?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcreativecommons.org%2Flicenses%2Fby%2F3.0%2F&amp;token=a0da50-1-1684384137198" rel="nofollow">creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/</a></p>

The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England
APR 25, 2023
The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England
<p>In this episode, we talk about Book 2 of Brandon's secret projects, The Frugal Wizard's Guide to Surviving Medieval England. We found it to be a real mixed bag, but despite having a lot of objections are more or less warm on it. What a ringing endorsement that is haha.</p> <p>We will be back with one more April (hopefully) episode about The Book of Three, the first book Lloyd Alexander's Chronicles of Prydain. After that we are penciled in for a May (hopefully) episode where we will talk about all of The Final Empire! We are going to transition out of chapter by chapter reads of these books and into covering them as a whole. I am looking forward to capping that off and moving onward to the rest of the Cosmere, as well as the other Secret Project books and other fantasy series!</p> <p>You can find Nora on twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/NeitherNora" rel="nofollow">@NeitherNora</a> and you can find more of zir work on <a href="https://norablake.online/" rel="nofollow">norablake.online</a></p> <p>You can find Autumn on twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/Autumnal_Coffee" rel="nofollow">@autumnal_coffee</a> and you can find their other podcasts at <a href="https://www.patreon.com/exportaudio" rel="nofollow">exportaud.io</a>!</p> <p>You can also get access to episodes of this podcast early by giving us a single dollar <a href="https://www.patreon.com/exportaudio" rel="nofollow">on the patreon</a>!</p> <p>Music courtesy of Kevin MacLeod (<a href="https://gate.sc?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.smartsound.com%2Froyalty-free-music%2Fincompetech&amp;token=53eb77-1-1681821298032" rel="nofollow">www.smartsound.com/royalty-free-music/incompetech</a>) Licensed under Creative Commons &quot;Attribution 3.0&quot; <a href="https://gate.sc?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcreativecommons.org%2Flicenses%2Fby%2F3.0%2F&amp;token=1fe86f-1-1681821298032" rel="nofollow">creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/</a></p>
