Here we are, at the end of all things. It's time to say goodbye to the Gansey as we read chapters 62 to the epilogue of The Raven King through the theme of promise this week. In this section, Ronan is being unmade and Adam, unable to bear it, scries and gets some useful advice from Persephone. Meanwhile, Gansey accepts that there is no time to save himself, and asks Blue to kiss him. She does, and he dies. It's pretty terrible. Henry compells them to action, and Adam suggests asking Cabeswater to die for Gansey. Together, they work with the last of Ronan's dreamt forest, and Gansey is remade. In the epilogue, Adam confronts his parents for the last time; Gansey, Blue, and Henry receive a graduation gift from Ronan for their gap year; and Ronan begins to dream. You can find the show notes on the website.  This episode was recorded on 25 November 2023. This is the final part of the Raven Cycle - check out season 5 for The Raven Boys, season 8 for The Dream Thieves, and season 10 for Blue Lily, Lily Blue. Thanks for listening! We're going to be taking a break for a wee while to consider the future of the pod. We'll be back with an update as soon as we can, but keep an eye on the website for updates, too.

Here we are again, at the end of another season! It always comes around too fast. This week, we read chapters 84-epilogue of Any Way The Wind Blows through the theme of love and wrap up our time with this book. It's the perfect theme to end our journey with this wonderful series!  In this section, Lady Ruth and Jamie invite Simon and Baz over for a celebration lunch where Simon commits a sword faux pas... or does he? Turns out Simon's picked up the family Excalibur, which can only be moved by a Salisbury, which means that Simon Snow is Lucy's lost child. Finally, a resolution! Penny takes Shepard home for dinner - they like each other and it's very great and cute. And we get a glimpse of Agatha's future - she's moved to Watford where she keeps the goats, and she's content with trading in her wand for a walking stick. You can find the show notes on the website.  This episode was recorded on 26 September 2023. This is the last part of the Carry On trilogy - you can check out season 6 for Carry On and season 9 for Wayward Son.  Thanks for listening! We'll be back with a one-shot of a delightful Kiwi film, The Hunt for the Wilderpeople. Then we'll take a week off before roaring back with Season 12.

Pretty grim topic this week but one that comes up often enough for these characters, sadly – we're reading chapters 33-37 of Blue Lily, Lily Blue through the theme of violence. In this section, the Greenmantles go spelunking. Piper continues to be weird and it's freaking Colin out! Gwenllian, meanwhile, is wreaking noisy havoc at 300 Fox Way, but the Gray Man asks her to sing her story, and she does. She shows Blue that they're the same, they're mirrors. If things aren't weird and spooky enough, there's a scaffolding failure at Aglionby and where Adam should have been killed, he's been perfectly protected–Cabeswater again. Heads up: Jenn D's story today talks about corporal punishment for kids, and we talk about the ramifications of growing up in countries with normalized violence If that's not your jam, the story starts at 3:55 minutes in, and we move on to chapter summaries at 11:25.   We're well into our journey with The Raven Cycle - check out season 5 for The Raven Boys and season 8 for The Dream Thieves.

Welcome to Intermezzode Take2, aka are we better at this whole remote thing yet?! The stinger section says NO! Join us as we cover a few listener questions related to everyone’s favorite Magician, Adam Parrish! We talk headcanons about how Blue found out about Pynch, how Adam’s deafness may or may not be used as a plot device, how readers can interpret characters and find personal representation regardless of textual evidence, and how sometimes those interpretations can be difficult for others due to extenuating circumstances and lived experiences (or lack thereof). CAUTION: This Intermezzode has some discussion of abuse as it relates to Adam’s hearing loss, as well as topics of race in the context of the Raven Cycle and the systemic oppression of Native/Indigenous populations in the U.S.A. These are sensitive and difficult topics and we urge you to please practice compassion while listening.

Welcome to Intermezzode Take1, aka how do we do this whole remote recording thing and what the heck happened to a whole year?!?! Join us as we stumble through what it takes to record in two different places, answer questions about when we might come back with Season 3, talk about how we got through 2020, and recommend a few things that we enjoyed and/or helped us cope. We also dunk on South Dakota a little too much (Sorry, SD!), are baffled by the thought of a whole town in one building (Hi, Whittier!), update Shannon on the status of the TRC TV show, hint at the plans we had for covering Maggie’s YA graphic novel Swamp Thing, and debate whether the “X” in XOXO is a hug or a kiss. NOTE: We apologize for the quality of Shannon’s audio, we do believe we have worked out the kinks for future recordings! CAUTION: This Intermezzode discusses the impacts that the difficult and isolating time of 2020 had on our mental health.

Hey friends! It has been a hot minute! But I'm back and better than ever with the first episode where I cover a series, The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater. This isn't just your regular run of the mill young adult fantasy series. There's magic, curses, a hitman, a sleeping Welsh king, sassy tarot readers, a love triangle - oh wait, maybe it is. Follow along as I dive into the series and the gang of rag tag teens that find themselves crossing ley lines and forging unbreakable bonds to find the magical sleeping Welsh king who is thought to be hidden somewhere in their sleepy small town. Also, this is my favorite series so I may be a bit biased in saying that it is the best and most magical collection of books I have ever read. Thank you so, so, so much for listening!

Acclaimed author, Maggie Stiefvater describes Call Down the Hawk, the first book in a brand-new trilogy, as a “big, strange, weird novel” full of all of the things she likes in both novels and life. This includes art, magic, music, and mythology. Call Down the Hawk follows Ronan Lynch, a character who can take things out of his dreams and bring them into real life, and Jordan Hennessy, an artist, a thief, and maybe something else. If you're a fan of young-adult literature, you're probably familiar with Maggie's work. She is the New York Times best-selling author of The Raven Cycle, The Shiver Trilogy, and The Scorpio Races. On this episode, we'll talk with her and award-winning author Scott Westerfeld about what it's like to expand a fictional universe for eager fans. Scott is the author of The Uglies Series, The Leviathan Trilogy, and Impostors, among many other titles.

Maggie Stiefvater is the keeper of a host of odd obsessions, threading her bestselling fantasy novels with vicious water horses, sleeping Welsh royalty, ley lines, and liminal spaces. She's the author of books including the Raven Cycle, which continues this fall with the first installment of the Dreamer trilogy, Call Down the Hawk. In it she'll further explore the Lynch brothers and the dark gift of dreaming, taking objects from your unconscious life into your waking one. I talked to Stiefvater about her early ambitions, books that feel like a fever dream, and why Call Down the Hawk is THE book for her.
