In this episode, Julia chats with debut author Lindsey Byrd about the first book in her new duology The Sun Blessed Prince (out now!) In this three POV narrative, we follow Elician, Giver and Prince of Soleb, Cat, Reaper of Allelune, and Fenlia, Elician's younger sister who also happens to be a Giver. Their fates are woven intricately together in this fantasy, and begs the question: are we really that different from one another?
Death By TBR (Lindsey's Favorite Books): Doctor Sleep by Stephen King, Inkheart by Cornelia Funke, Sistersong by Lucy Holland, Le Fay by Sophie Keetch, (Sophie's Novel Finds Episode), Shades of Magic series by V.E. Schwab, Dark Heir series by C.S. Pacat
