Read This F***ing Book RTFBPodcast

Long promised and not forgotten, Elena and Rachel are back to talk about the gentleman bastards of The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch. It's a bit of a heist, a bit of a mystery, with a lot of swashbuckling flair and enormously engrossing world-building. 
As always, beware spoilers!

We took a year off but we're back and what better book to get us back into the swing of things than the sequel to our last episode? We spend this entire episode raving about Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir, but beware all the spoilers!

Rachel rec'd her favorite book of the year for this spooky-season episode of RTFBPodcast and Elena loved it. We're reading Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir. The story of a smart-ass sword fighter and the necromancer she loves/hates (and there's MURDER). Come for the skeletons! Stay for the emotions! Gideon the Ninth is like nothing you've read before. Rejoice, the sequel (Harrow the Ninth) is out June 2020.

We are back after our summer off! We're reading Brandon Sanderson's Warbreaker. This is Elena's first dip into the Cosmere and Rachel's favorite of Sanderson's works. We talk about why fantasy is a great space to write about religion, why Nightblood is our favorite and debate the husbandly merits of Vasher vs Lightsong.

We can't stay away from Ann Leckie! We read her full-length Fantasy debut, The Raven Tower. This one is a vengeance gig with gods (rocks, swarms, forests, talking snakes and more!), murder mysteries and subtly complicated twists and turns. Take a listen for a spoiler-filled discussion.

As promised, a supplementary episode discussing the rest of Anne Bishop's Black Jewels trilogy. The Content Warning is still in effect while we decide what works, what we wish was different and, ultimately, why this trilogy is so compelling and influential.
