This episode hosts Em and Annica have an exciting guest as they discuss the book Design of Darkness- the author himself, RD Pires! This epic fantasy is filled with magic and mysticism, forbidden love, family, and untold dangers as some set out to save what they hold dear and others trifle with powerful, dark forces. Listen in as we dive into questions about non-eurocentric inspired fantasy, multi-perspective storytelling, and fantasy worldbuilding (and the delightful creatures contained therein). If you’d like to learn more about RD and his other publications, visit his website at https://rdpiresauthor.com/ If you're interested in reading Design of Darkness after listening to this episode, consider borrowing it from your local library or purchasing it from an independent bookstore or directly from the publisher!
