If you love the Bobiverse books like we do (book 6 drops September 10th!), you know they would not have come into existence without Dennis E. Taylor's wife, Blaihin, there to support them. But why listen to me tell you about that when she can tell you about it herself! This month we have both Blaihin and Dennis on to talk books, life, and anything else she wants.

Last year we interviewed Justin Thomas James from Soundbooth Theater and to prepare for that, several of us read Dead Tired that he did some of the voice work on and was written by Ravensdagger. They liked it so much the rest of us read it and loved it as well. Now we get to interview the author himself! He has multiple book series to include Dead Tired, Stray Cat Strut, Fluff, and Cinnamon Bun just to name a few. I have a feeling we’re about to find several more series to listen to.

After the great zombie war that almost wiped out humanity, Max Brooks was tasked to collect data for a report on what led up to the war, during the war, and how we eventually won the war against the undead. This audio book is the oral history of those who fought and survived the war told by an insane cast of professional actors, film makers, readers, and all star celebrities. This isn’t the brainless action movie that shares the same name, this is a gritty novel about a war that could wipe out humanity if the dead ever rise from the grave.

Man, we might have to rename this podcast, “The LitRPG Show.” So you die in our world and wake up in a different one. Now you have powers and super strength. This new world also behaves much like a game would. You are also able to “awaken” creatures that instantly become your friends. Sounds familiar right? Well this time, you’re at the beach and you are obsessed with fishing and eating sea food. That pretty much sums Heretical Fishing by Haylock Jobson. But does this seas-side version of the litRPG formula hot the spot? Host: Eugene Stephens Guest: Ray Andrew, Shaun McLaren, Joseph Moroles Like the show?

Imagine reaching the very heights of magical power, becoming so powerful in fact, you challenge the gods and win. So what do you do next? Take a nap.

While he’d really like to get back to sleep, he decides to see what this new world is about.

Red Dwarf was a British sci-fi comedy show that aired from 1988 to 1999 on BBC Two. Featuring a cast of colorful characters, the show has lived on in books and other media. Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers is book one and serves as prequel / jumping off point for the series. But does it do a good job of it? Does the beloved show translate well into book form? Or will it cause yuo to never give the show a shot if you have never seen it? Host: Eugene Stephens Guest: Kris Andrew, Ray Andrew, Shaun McLaren Like the show?

There is no such thing as witches. Well maybe back when they burned innocent women at the stake in Salem. But not in the 1890s. But even then, witches were not real. But what if there were real witches? And what if they had just forgotten the old ways for fear of being found out? And what if the women's suffrage movement caused them to remember the old ways and bring witchcraft back to help fight for women's rights? This month we are discussing The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow. Editors Note: If you listen to this show as an audio only podcast, first, thank you for the support. But we have been doing a lot more stuff on YouTube. This month, I left in the pre-show banter that is on the video version of the show just so you can get a taste of what you are missing.

Imagine waking up up in the body of another person in a mystic land where people can use their chi to do incredible things... then getting you butt kicked. Forget those jerks, I'm going to go far away and just become a simple farmer. But when you have the strength of 10 men and the ability to infuse things with powerful Qi, life doesn't stay simple. Especially when your rooster and several other farm animals learn to do the same! Host: Eugene Stephens Guest: Kris Andrew, Ray Andrew, Shaun McLaren, Joseph Moroles Like the show?

Have you ever looked at a character in the background of a movie and thought, “I wonder what that guy’s story is?” Have you ever wondered how a certain character got to that point in the story? Have you ever thought about all of the beings that were lost in that big explosion, even if it saved the day? Star Wars: From a Certain Point of View is a collection of 40 stories from characters that filled that original classic. Some are well known characters like Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Grand Moff Tarkin. Others are from those who had very little screen time like Aunt Beru and Biggs Darklighter. And others who you may have never even considered like the mouse droids and the dianoga in the trash compactor on the Star Destroyer.
