The WizLes genre’s finest books

This is the genre of books and the taste in critique I needed. I’ve read many of these but I do enjoy their takes. Great show I’m glad they’re making it

Rocannon R ,

It’s introducing me to a lot of great books.

Is queer desire the revolutionary moment? I’ll be thinking about the nuances of this question for as long as this podcast runs and a good while after.

A perfect reading list

I've been absolutely burning through this show and the books it covers, you two are my favorite source of reading recommendations at this point. I would (and have, repeatedly) totally recommend this podcast to anyone interest in queer SFF.
