Can you feel the love tonight? - So in etwa haben sich Elzar und Avar wohl begrüßt, nachdem sie sich am Ende von Eye of the Darkness wieder getroffen haben. Alles was danach kommt, erfahren wir nun in diesem Roman. Mit Temptation of the Force (Die Versuchung der Macht) liefert Tessa Gratton eine umfassende Analyse dessen, was Liebe eigentlich ausmacht und was alles Liebe sein kann. Liebe zwischen Menschen, Liebe zu etwas oder einfach nur die Liebe zur Macht oder Anerkennung. Doch der Roman überzeugt nicht nur mit dieser Allegorie, sondern auch mit seiner Funktion als direkte Fortsetzung von Defy the Storm (Trotzt dem Sturm) und einer doppelten Actioneinlage und der Neusortierung der Bedrohungslage in der Galaxis. Also mehr als genug Stoff, damit sich Ines, Janina und Tobias mal so richtig in einer Diskussion verlieren können. Wieso muss man Defy vorher gelesen haben? Warum sorgt Vernestra bei uns für Wutanfälle? Inwiefern ist Porters Rolle schlecht eingebunden? Welche Rolle spielt Burry, der endlich wieder zur POV-Figur erhoben wird und warum war Marchion nicht schon im vorherigen Roman wieder so zentral für die Handlung, wie er es nun wieder zu werden droht? Alles Fragen, auf die wir - sofern keine Antworten geben - doch ziemlich gute Mutmaßungen anstellen können und somit wollen wir euch einladen, mit uns zusammen erneut in die Hohe Republik zu reisen!

Juni 2024 auf Englisch bei Random House Worlds Ein englischsprachiges Hörbuch, gelesen von Marc Thompson erschien am gleichen Tag Die deutsche Übersetzung von Blanvalet erscheint voraussichtlich am 18. Dezember 2024 Die Rezension Ines hat das Werk kurz nach Release für euch rezensiert und befindet bereits im Titel, dass das Buch die "Herzen höher schlagen [lässt]". Sie resümiert folglich, dass "Temptation of the Force ein weiterer sehr lesenswerter The High Republic-Roman [ist], der vor allem mit einer sehr starken Darstellung der Beziehung zwischen Avar und Elzar punktet und die neue Bedrohung angemessen aufbaut". Einzig bei der Verbindung mancher Handlungsstränge sieht sie Nachholbedarf. Den JediCast abonnieren Wir sind auf allen gängigen Podcast-Plattformen vertreten!

In this episode, Tessa takes us on a trip down memory lane as we take a deep dive into all things Temptation of the Force. Along the way we chat about the writing process, the camaraderie between The High Republic Authors, and just how much heart and soul it takes to write a novel of this magnitude. Tessa also brings us through the monumental task of reuniting two fan favourites in Elzar Mann and Avar Kriss.
Liam and Sanak review the latest book in The High Republic multimedia initiative, Temptation of the Force by Tessa Gratton. In this book, the Jedi and the Republic look to press their advantage against the Nihil after Avar Kriss and Avon Starros both found ways past the Storm Wall in The Eye of Darkness and Defy the Storm. Meanwhile, Elzar Mann must grapple with the decisions he's made in the previous books as he's offered Stellan Gios's seat on the Jedi High Council. The book also picks up with new developments from Defy the Storm, as Marchion Ro becomes infatuated with the blight seen in that young adult novel. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/starwarslads/support

In dieser Ausgabe Ausgelesen dreht sich alles um den neuen YA-Roman der Hohen Republik namens Defy the Storm (Trotzt dem Sturm) von Tessa Gratton und Justina Ireland! Der Roman bringt uns zurück auf die Charakterebene und lässt uns alte Lieblinge aus der ersten Phase wiedersehen. Neben Avon, Xylan und Vern tauchen auch Schiffsbesitzerinnen wieder auf, ein Jedi findet zu sich selbst und ein neuer Plus One kann unsere Herzen erobern und Mitgefühl (bei 2/3 Beteiligten dieser Aufnahme) erringen. Viele vage Andeutungen, die deshalb in den folgenden zwei Stunden mal ordentlich analysiert werden müssen. Dazu machen sich Ines, Janina und Tobias auf, um nicht nur den Stormwall zu entwirren, sondern auch die vielen Handlungen, die sich gerade in der zweiten Hälfte in alle Richtungen entwickeln. Da hatten ein paar keine Lust auf Zu-sammen-arbeit. Was würde Doktor Hakim nur dazu sagen? Warum der Roman am Anfang sehr lange braucht, bis wirklich was Eindeutiges passiert, wieso die Charakterisierungen unserer Lieblingsfiguren die große Stärke sind und weshalb er am Ende vor allem als Puzzleteil-Vorsortierstation (gibt es sowas, wäre praktisch...) fungiert, besprechen wir ausgiebig in diesem JediCast!

Blick in die Datenbank Zur Werksübersicht von Trotz dem Sturm (Defy the Storm), geschrieben von Justina Ireland & Tessa Gratton Die englische Ausgabe erschien am 5. März 2024 bei Disney-Lucasfilm-Press Am gleichen Tag erschien ein englisches Hörbuch, gelesen von Amber Lee Connors Die deutsche Übersetzung erscheint voraussichtlich Ende Mai beim Panini-Verlag Die Rezension Florian hat das Werk zu Release für euch rezensiert und war insgesamt sehr angetan von dem Roman. Vor allem auch die Nebenfiguren - allen voran Deva Lompop - stellten für ihn "unerwartete Highlights" dar. Am Ende resümiert er, dass er sich "beim Lesen so gefühlt [hat], als würde [er] einer leicht dysfunktionalen, aber im Großen und Ganzen immer noch zusammenhaltenden Familie auf ein großes Abenteuer folgen, was eine wunderbare Form des Eskapismus ist und auch die Stärken des World- und Character-Buildings der Ära der Hohen Republik voll ausspielt".

In dieser Ausgabe des JediCast machen sich Ines und Tobias auf den Weg zur Odyssee durchs Outer Rim, alles nur dafür, um den Planeten X zu finden, der uns mehr über die Leveler zu verraten verspricht. Doch werden ihre Erwartungen am Ende enttäuscht? Und was ist mit den Mitreisenden? Sind sie spannend und haben wieder mehr innere Konflikte als noch beim Ausflug auf Aubadas und Gloam? Außerdem sprechen wir über die Darstellung der zentralen Hauptfiguren, den überraschend plausiblen Antagonisten und das Worldbuilding rund um das Prospecting. Wieso uns Quest for Planet X von Tessa Gratton am Ende wieder mehr überzeugen konnte als der direkte Vorgänger Quest for the Hidden City von George Mann und damit wieder näher am Stil und an der Qualität der Justina-Ireland-Beiträge aus der ersten Phase ist, wird ausgiebig besprochen. Zudem diskutieren wir, inwieweit man mit unseren Erwartungen spielt und ob das am Ende ein Problem des Romans oder der bisher eher redundanten und wenig aufschlussreichen zweiten Phase als Ganzes ist.

April 2023 bei Disney-Lucasfilm-Press. Parallel dazu erschien ein englisches Hörbuch, gesprochen von Amber Lee Connors. Die deutsche Übersetzung ist Stand jetzt Ende Juni bei Panini zu erwarten! Die Rezension Ines hat das Werk nach dem Release für euch rezensiert und - wie auch im Podcast - wieder mehr lobende Worte dafür gefunden. Lediglich das Ende und das Spiel mit unseren Erwartungen konnte sie nicht ganz überzeugen. Schlussendlich "ist Quest for Planet X ein stärkerer Jugendroman als sein Vorgänger Quest for the Hidden City und kann vor allem mit ausgearbeiteten Figuren punkten, die mit nachvollziehbaren Teenager-Problemen kämpfen und damit Identifikationspotential bieten."

In dieser Ausgabe reden wir über den Auftakt der zweiten Phase der Hohen Republik namens Path of Deceit (dt. Pfad der Täuschung) von Tessa Gratton und Justina Ireland! Der Roman dreht sich um einen Machtkult, der eine sehr reglementierte Auslegung der Macht hat und deshalb auf Jedi nicht so gut zu sprechen ist. Welche Konflikte sich daraus ergeben und was wir sonst an dem Roman erwähnenswert finden, soll im Zentrum dieser Ausgabe stehen. Dazu sprechen Ines, Patricia, Florian und Tobias über Liebesgeschichten, die vor Tropes nur so strotzen, über die Macht der Indoktrination in Kulten und die beeindruckende Leistung, komplexe Charaktere nuanciert darstellen zu können, sodass wir mit allen mitfiebern. Außerdem bewerten wir, wie es den Autorinnen gelingt, den Auftakt der zweiten Phase zu stemmen, und ob man diesen Roman unbedingt lesen sollte. Also eine vollgepackte Ausgabe mit vielen schönen Momenten, aber auch dem üblichen Damoklesschwert der Hohen Republik!

Für ihn ist Path of Deceit ein "vielversprechender Auftakt für die zweite Phase von Star Wars: The High Republic und fühlt sich wie eine wesentliche Lektüre für das Verständnis des gesamten Projekts an".

Des Weiteren sind wir nun auch sowohl auf Amazon Music als auch Audible abrufbar.

In dieser Ausgabe werfen wir einen Blick auf die anstehende Fortsetzung der Hohen Republik, die sich gemäß der Star Wars-Tradition als Prequel zur ersten Phase entpuppt. Welche Werke sind angekündigt? Was wissen wir über diese Werke und was erhoffen wir uns darüber hinaus von dieser Phase, die 150 Jahre vor den Ereignissen rund um den Starlight Beacon spielen wird. Dazu äußern Janina, Patricia, Florian und Tobias Erwartungen und auch Befürchtungen und schwören sich ein, auf Herzschmerz und mit Stöhnen untermalte Hörspielerlebnisse. Hinweis: Diese Ausgabe wurde Ende August aufgezeichnet. Sollten seitdem Informationen erschienen sein, die einige unserer Vermutungen untermauern oder widerlegen, können wir diese natürlich nicht beachtet haben.

Courtney Sullivan (rec'd by Elizabeth) Maybe in Another Life by Taylor Jenkins Reid and Rodham by Curtis Sittenfeld (rec'd by Linda) John Green's The Anthropocene Reviewed (rec'd by Sofia) The Queens of Innis Lear by Tessa Gratton (rec'd by Gina) Questions 1. Lately I've been missing the days of reading as an adolescent when there were so many action/adventure book series (all that included great romantic subplots) like Ally Carter's Heist Society and Gallagher Girls, Divergent Series, Hunger Games, the Uglies series, the Maze Runner, The selection, etc. Now I'm in my twenties and I feel like all the best book series fall under the YA category. So I'm looking for a book series that has all the action, adventure and romance of the ones from my youth, but are more mature. I don't love fantasy, but enjoy dystopian, spy and government stories, and any other realistic adventure story. I read the memory police earlier this year and while I liked it, it wasn't as fast paced, and I didn't connect to the characters like I wanted to. Any thoughts? -Nostalgic Adult 2. I'm going on a trip to the Appalachian mountains at the end of July and I'm trying to gather some books to bring with me. I'm looking for books that take place either in the Appalachian mountains or the woods. So far, I'm bringing Bill Bryson's “A Walk in the Woods,” but I'd love some fiction recs. I'll pretty much read anything, but I'm not a fan of horror. My favorite books are thrillers, mysteries, found family, and memoir. Bonus points if they make great audio versions that I can listen to on the drive down there. Thanks! -Megs 3. I realize I am coming in a bit late here since Pride is in full swing now, but since it deserves recognition all year-round here goes anyway! After coming out of a long-term “normal” cis/hetero relationship, I have been finding my true self. Right before the panini-times struck the world, I started exploring poly-amourous relationships and within the last year I openly acknowledged that I am a bisexual woman. My poly-partners have been amazing additions to my life and truly helped hold me together in the last turbulent year. Now that the world is re-opening I'm now tentatively forging a friendship with one of my metamours- the partner of one of my partners – and we've both discovered that we're each new to this way of doing relationships and are trying to figure out how to co-exist peaceably with each other. She's already given me a great recommendation of a book centering on the poly-lifestyle so I'd love to be able to return the favor, as well as find reading material to help further my own journey of self-exploration. Fiction or non-fiction are welcome, but I'm mostly curious to see if there are any novels that feature characters in these types of relationships that are figuring it out. I'm not so much into romance myself but if it's an aspect of the story that's totally fine. Looking forward to seeing what you can come up with! Thank you for all you do to keep my reading lists overflowing! -Heather 4. hi! so in honor of pride month and almost a year of being more open about being nonbinary and using he/they pronouns, i would really enjoy something full of lgbt rep, especially a trans and/or nonbinary character/s. i don't really have anything specific, just preferably fiction and queer characters. also maybe a good happy ending or at least something that won't rip out my heart, tearing it to shreds and leaving me as an empty shell of what i was for weeks at the end, you know? -Rey (he/him) 5. *Time sensitive – due by July 2nd*. Hi! My father-in-law is having a surgical procedure soon that has an estimated 6 weeks of recovery time. I'm looking for some good sci-fi books to keep him entertained during his recovery. He's a retired computer scientist and he's read a ton of classic sci-fi like Aasimov, Bradbury, and Heinlein. I'm pretty sure he's read some more recent sci-fi like Ready Player One, and I know he's not into military sci-fi. Any recs would be appreciated
We welcome Tessa Gratton, author of speculative fiction such as the recent Lady Hotspur (available now!), to the cultural bridge crew of Re:Engage to discuss the second appearance of Q in Star Trek canon. After we go into the lyrics of Billy Idol's "Mony, Mony" and Richard Dawson's terrible-ness in "The Running Man," there is talk of Gene Roddenbury's vile behavior around the creation of this episode before we delve into what worked and what didn't, story-wise. John Delancie's performance is solid, but Tessa points out what a world-building paradox it is to have an omniscient power like Q's offered to Riker so easily. Kate points out we do get to see Picard out-Shakespeare Q, which is fantastic, although Jimmie G disparages Delancie's phonetic learning of it. And Greg learns what a trochee is.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard had an illustrious career before he joined the Enterprise, and we get to see it in all its glory aboard his old ship, the USS Stargazer. "The Battle" also features the second appearance of the Ferengi in this voyage of the first season of TNG, and we all (mostly) agree it's much better than how they come off in "The Last Outpost." Riker has some good scenes with the Ferengi first mate, but the episode is definitely carried by Patrick Stewart's illustrious acting chops, Picard Maneuver notwithstanding. Greg hosts this episode; Erik does his best to lovingly derail the conversation and Jimmie gets a little more comfortable with Ferengi while Kate expounds on Picard's sexiness ... again.

Welcome to the longest episode we've done on Deadline City yet! We invited Tessa Gratton, author of Queen of Innis Lear and Night Shine, to talk about big worldbuilding challenges. We talk about racial coding and queering the worlds we love to read about. What succeeds? How do some fail? Dhonielle has it out for The Witcher and Star Wars, and Zoraida tries to defend her faves. There is a lot of love, shouting, and serious advice on how to get down to business creating new and epic fantasy novels. Support the show (http://Ko-fi.com/deadlinecity)

This week, Wendy and Toni talk about the only gently-bred woman allowed into Craven’s, Lawless Lily and the guy with many resources, Alex Raiford. Many of us go through life being independent and figure out our issues on our own. Some of us are fortunate enough to have friends and family that will help us at the drop of a hat. Although there is nothing wrong with doing things on our own, there is nothing wrong with asking for help. For years Derek Craven had been helping Lily find what was taken from her, but Alex found what Lily has been craving for with his different set of resources to exhaust. When we are hurting or desperate, it’s best to seek help because it’s available. Join the ladies as they discuss how to know when we need help!Drawing Room Discussions –No one to laugh with eventShrimp talkTaylor Swift doing good, again!"Official, unofficial book review” / Listicle – 22:10"Pot-tail Pondering" – 50:03Naughty Brits by Sarah MacLean, Sophie Jordan, Louisa Edwards, Tessa Gratton, and Sierra SimoneHenley talkEmail - litwallflowerspodcast@gmail.comFollow on www.instagram.com/litwallflowerspodcastWebsite https://linktr.ee/litwallflowersFeaturing –Then Came You by Lisa KleypasThe Gamblers of Craven’s serieswww.lisakelypas.comwww.facebook.com/lisakleypaswww.instagram.com/lisakleypas"Pot-tail Pondering" –Tullamore DEW Triple Distilled Irish Whiskeywww.tullamoredew.comwww.facebook.com/tullamoredewwww.instagram.com/tullamoredewwww.twitter.com/tullamoredew

Two years in the making, we’re finally talking to one of our very favorites, Tracey Livesay, about friends-to-lovers romances! Ironically, for a group of people who say they don’t love friends-to-lovers, we sure had a lot of books to recommend! We’ll also peel back the curtain on Tracey’s feelings about Jamie Dornan, talk about the strangest places romance couples have sex, and get to the bottom of why this trope works so well when it works.Sarah wrote a contemporary novella during a pandemic, and it's coming out September 15th! Preorder the Naughty Brits (an anthology with Sophie Jordan, Sierra Simone, Louisa Edwards and Tessa Gratton), wherever you get your ebooks: Amazon, Nook, Kobo, Apple or Google, or in print at bookshop.org.Next week, we’re deep diving on Milla Vane’s A Heart of Blood and Ashes, which is a long fantasy romance.

Some interesting facts about the movies, including the director change from Sam Taylor-Johnson to James Foley. The soundtracks for the movies are terrific, especially two Beyonce songs: the remix of Crazy in Love and the song Haunted. May all of your contract negotiations look like this. Tracey said “we see more of Jamie” in the next two movies, so maybe she didn’t know about his modeling career. All further 50 Shades questions should be directed to Nisha Sharma.Unrequited love is way more stressful than friends to lovers.In Like Lovers Do, Ben's ex-girlfriend is racist to Nic in a way that Ben doesn't quite understand, including a reference to Courvoisier, which Ben thinks is referring to an SNL skit.Unsurprisingly, we adore Like Lovers Do, but we're not sure we can give it a better review than this one by LaQuette, who really hits the nail on the head with the promise of this particular premise (aka, hammock sex friends-to-lovers).Martha’s Vineyard is for fancy people.A New York Times article about Interracial romance in media in 2020.Handstand.

In this, our first interstitial of Season Three, we’ll talk about some of those books…and also Jen will spend some really important time confirming that Sarah is, in fact, right. About everything. That’s canon now.Next week, we’ll read Fifty Shades of Grey. We'll talk fan fiction, Christian Grey, 1st person POV, billionaires, the early 2010s, why the book mobilized so many readers, why it made so many others angry, and what we talk about when we talk about Fifty Shades of Grey.
