The Legendarium Podcast is a community for lovers of science fiction and fantasy books, from classic to contemporary. Red Team and Blue Team are under the main Legendarium Podcast. They're the pros. Green Team's podcast is a bit different. We are the newbies, upstarts, the kids in the back of the class who riff off of different one-off topics, about books, life, games, pancakes vs waffles, and all the important arguments.

Customer Reviews
Malazan,
huh, what other books? Maybe I’ll listen one day to those too, if I remember to come back, also, I may never read those books.
Best Malazan Companion
This podcast is the best Malazan read along, and I’ll admit my review is limited to those episodes as that’s all I’ve listened to so far. The folks who run it are also incredibly friendly over on the Legendarium discord. They delve into books in an interesting and entertaining way. They’re excellent at staying on topic and focused on the text. Would highly recommend.
Fairly good for new podcasters!
I enjoyed listening to what Steven Erikson/Lundin had to say, but the interview was just that: an interview; question-answer-question-answer. I would have loved if there was more of an organic conversation, rather than an imperative to get to each question.
