    Episode Thirty Two S2: Clowns, Balloons & Blood Hunt

    Send us Fan Mail This week Katy and Rosie have a proper chat about Blood Hunt by the brilliant Marnie L. Norton — book one of the Female Rage series, and yes, it is exactly as feral as it sounds. Bronya is a Strzyga cursed to avenge witchkind and wreak destruction upon all men in a world where witch blood is a currency and a commodity, and witches have been hunted and bled for a century. It is dark, atmospheric, fiercely feminist and we had a lot of thoughts. Marnie couldn’t join us this time but she will be on very soon — watch this space. Plus Rosie’s Bit on the Side this week is a squeakual. Following on from the beloved tale of the shapeshifting balloons comes the next chapter — a shapeshifting clown enters the picture and, reader, they all find each other and live happily ever after. It is the wholesome ending nobody asked for and everybody needed. Katy’s reaction to the reunion was everything. ☕ Grab your cuppa. Female rage and sentient inflatables. Just a normal Tuesday. ⚠️ Trigger warnings: dark fantasy themes, violence, adult content, female rage (the good kind).

    Episode Thirty One S2: Who’s Got Your Back & Quicksilver Chapters 23-34

    Send us Fan Mail This week Katy and Rosie are back with chapters twenty three to thirty four of Quicksilver by Callie Hart and things are getting SIGNIFICANTLY more unhinged. We are not okay. We were not prepared. We will not be taking questions at this time. We also tackle this week’s big question: which book character would be the best at actually protecting you if things went sideways? Not the most attractive option, not the most fun option — the one you’d genuinely want in your corner when it all kicks off. The answers were debated with great passion and absolutely no objectivity whatsoever. ☕ Grab your cuppa and possibly a comfort blanket. Chapters 23-34 require emotional preparation. ⚠️ Trigger warnings: graphic violence, adult content.

    Episode Thirty S2: Old Bastards, Scottish Accents & a Man Who Used to Be a Drink ft. Stevie Duffy

    Send us Fan Mail Episode Thirty S2: Old Bastards, Scottish Accents & a Man Who Used to Be a Drink ft. Stevie Duffy This week Katy and Rosie are joined by the wonderfully chaotic Stevie Duffy to chat about his debut novel Old Bastards — a gloriously filthy, outrageously funny comedy set in a nursing home where the residents are absolutely feral, the staff are barely holding it together, and nobody is behaving themselves. Think less peaceful twilight years, more booze-soaked chaos with extremely questionable decisions and characters you will fall completely in love with despite everything. We had an absolute blast chatting with Stevie — and yes, the Scottish accent is exactly as good as you’re imagining. Plus Rosie’s Bit on the Side this week features a man who was, until recently, a margarita. Not a sentient margarita — we want to be very clear on the terminology — just a man with a very unusual origin story and apparently a lot to offer. Katy had questions. Many questions. We should also mention that there may or may not have been an additional presence in the room for this part of the episode. We’re saying nothing further. ☕ Grab your cuppa. Or a margarita. We don’t judge. ⚠️ Content warnings: "Con Non Con", crude humour, adult content, themes of ageism Support the show Check out our socials: TikTok  Instagram  YouTube  Niles' Historical Footnotes Edited by: Kelly Jones Fantasy Author

    Episode Twenty Nine S2: Chapters 11-22 Kingfisher & the Woman Behind the Press ft. Rhonda Penders

    Send us Fan Mail This week Katy and Rosie are back with chapters eleven to twenty two of Quicksilver by Callie Hart and things are getting considerably more complicated for Saeris and Kingfisher. We have thoughts. Strong, chaotic, slightly feral thoughts. No spoilers here but the slow burn is doing its job and we are not coping well. We are also joined by the remarkable Rhonda Penders, co-founder, President and Editor in Chief of The Wild Rose Press — a publishing house built from scratch in 2006 by two authors who were thoroughly fed up with how the industry treated writers. Over 500 authors and 3,500 titles later, Wild Rose Press remains one of the most author-friendly publishing houses around. We chat with Rhonda about what it really takes to get published, what she looks for in a submission, and what authors consistently get wrong. If you have ever dreamed of getting your book out into the world, this one is unmissable. ☕ Grab your cuppa. Romance, fae warriors, and a masterclass in publishing. We have range.

    Episode Twenty Eight S2: A talking pickle & The Ink Beneath ft. Elenor Pountain

    Send us Fan Mail This week Katy and Rosie are joined by the wonderful Elenor Pountain to chat about her debut novel The Ink Beneath, book one of the Shadows of London series. Lucas doesn’t exactly fit the usual profile — a precise, solitary man who has been perfecting the art of control since he was fifteen. Then he meets Jas, a water-loving barista who is light and mischief and quiet strength all at once, and suddenly his very carefully constructed world starts to come apart at the seams. He saved her life. She claimed his thoughts. The line between protector and predator has never been blurrier and we are absolutely not okay about it. Plus Rosie’s Bit on the Side this week features a sentient penis from outer space, courtesy of the magnificent Sabrina Cross, and it is exactly what it sounds like. Katy’s reaction was a journey through several distinct emotional stages. ☕ Grab your cuppa. Dark romance and extraterrestrial visitors. Just another Tuesday. ⚠️ Trigger warnings: dark themes, violence, adult content.

    Episode Twenty Seven S2: Who's Your Book Best Friend & Quicksilver by Callie Hart

    Send us Fan Mail This week Katy and Rosie tackle the question that really matters: which book character would you want as your actual best friend? Not your love interest, not your nemesis, your best friend. The answers were very telling and we stand by all of them. Then we dive into the first eleven chapters of the BookTok phenomenon that had the romantasy community in an absolute chokehold — *Quicksilver* by Callie Hart, book one of the Fae and Alchemy series. Saeris Fane is a 24-year-old thief hiding secret alchemical powers in an unforgiving desert realm where water is worth more than gold. One stolen gauntlet, one very unwise portal, and suddenly she's bound to Kingfisher — a Fae warrior with a murky past, a terrible attitude, and the kind of face that makes the terrible attitude considerably easier to tolerate. Enemies to lovers. Razor sharp banter. World building that pulls you in headfirst. We are already feral about it. ☕ Grab your cuppa. We've only read eleven chapters and we have THOUGHTS. ⚠️ *Trigger warnings: graphic violence, adult content.* Support the show Check out our socials: TikTok  Instagram  YouTube  Niles' Historical Footnotes Edited by: Kelly Jones Fantasy Author

    Episode Twenty Six S2: Biscuits, Betrayal & Medieval Florence ft. Emma Hine

    Send us Fan Mail This week Katy and Rosie are joined by the wonderful Emma Hine to chat about her debut novel The Power of the Wouivre: Fiorenza, a YA historical time travel adventure that will pull you straight into the streets of 13th century Tuscany. A Cornish teen discovers he can slip into the mind of a medieval Sienese nobleman called Guidaloste, just as Guidaloste uncovers a family legacy soaked in betrayal, deadly rivals, and secrets he was never supposed to find. Binding them across the centuries is a mysterious amulet called a wouivre. It is immersive, it is atmospheric, and we had a brilliant chat with Emma about how this book spent over twenty years finding its way into the world. Plus Rosie’s Bit on the Side this week features a man with a very particular and frankly impressive gift, specifically the ability to produce American style biscuits from his own flesh. He is also, apparently, excellent in bed. Katy had questions. Please bear with us for the last eleven minutes of this episode as Rosie’s microphone decided it had simply had enough. We promise she was saying brilliant things. ☕ Grab your cuppa. Medieval Florence and buttery biscuits. We contain multitudes.

    Episode Twenty Five S2: We’re Back, Baby! Solved, Sentient Cubes & The F*ck-It List ft. H.R. Lloyd

    Send us Fan Mail We’re back! Did you miss us? Don’t answer that. This week Katy and Rosie return from their little hiatus with an absolute belter of an episode. We’re joined by the lovely H.R. Lloyd to chat about The F*ck-It List, book one of the series. It’s a grumpy sunshine romcom set in the cosiest little café you’ve ever imagined, it’s got spice that will make your ears go pink. We had thoughts. Many warm, chaotic thoughts. Plus Rosie’s Bit on the Side this week is a special one — a sentient Rubik’s Cube from the Kyleverse gets solved for the very first time and things get… unexpectedly intimate. Katy’s reaction speaks for itself. Support the show Check out our socials: TikTok  Instagram  YouTube  Niles' Historical Footnotes Edited by: Kelly Jones Fantasy Author
