Vampirism is time travel. It's also tragedy and freedom and Queerness, and sex and death. We talk about all of these thing with V.E. Schwab, when we sink our teeth into her new epic novel, Bury our Bones in the Midnight Soil. It's the story of three women who lead complicated, violent, sensual lives across the centuries. The interconnect. They love. They kill. It wasn't the book I was expecting…and I loved it. I think you'll love this conversation too. Enjoy!

Surprise! Hey there folks, this week Kross was fortunate enough to get to interview Joel Daniel Phillips, and talk to him about his path through art, his work with Joe Abercrombie, Pierce Brown, and VE Schwab, AND a little bit about The Devils! We also get some exclusive thoughts about new projects coming down the pipe... including something fun with Red Rising. A small apology for the audio quality- Squadcast somehow failed to capture the audio quality, but with some wizardry from Andrew and Kross, we were able to recover it and make it work, all in record time. This is a unique episode is the way that it is also the first episode that we've recorded on video. We'll be sharing that early next week, so that you can get excellent looks at each of the prints that he shared within the conversation, and more. Beyond that, be sure to check out the merch drop that Lit Escalates has going for special editions of The Devils, and more! Next week, our friend Adam steps back in to lead the show, and Krossland through discussing Becky Chambers Monk and Robot duology. Don't worry- only another week or so until we return back to The Heroes. See you then.

Tune in as Makayla (Your Friendly Neighborhood Blerd) jumps onto the podcast for a breakdown of First Kill, the 2022 lesbian vampire Netflix series that follows the forbidden romance between two teenagers—one who's of the literally bloodsucking sort, the other who's of the monster-hunting variety. It's a shame that this only had the chance to stream for a couple months before the big red N suddenly decided to cancel it. The sociopathic Elinor quite possibly being the most fascinating character here, the show taking an incredibly dated and MAGA-era stab at political commentary, and the terrifying state of generative and deepfake AI in Hollywood stand out as a few of the talking points for this episode. Created by V.E. Schwab, First Kill stars Sarah Catherine Hook, Imani Lewis, Elizabeth Mitchell, Aubin Wise, Gracie Dzienny, Dominic Goodman, Phillip Mullings, Jr., Jason R. Moore, Will Swenson, Jonas Dylan Allen, MK xyz, Dylan McNamara, Polly Draper, Joseph D. Reitman, Walnette Santiago, Roberto Méndez, and Christopher B. Duncan.

Summary: Grab a book and a slide of deep dish pizza, it's time to visit Chicago folks! Today Holly and Devin discuss books set in the iconic city that brought us greats like The Bean and Al Capone. While neither host has a lot of experience in the midwest or in Chicago itself, they both think it's a great setting for a book - especially in Holly's darker wheelhouse. Stick around after the end credits for a spoiler-y romp through some horrifying details on her book today! Topics Discussed: The Dagger (3:05): Holly discussed The Fourth Monkey by J.D. Barker, a crime thriller that follows Detective Sam Porter as a bus accident that killed a man quickly turns into a hunt for the not-yet-murdered final victim of the Fourth Monkey Killer. He had been crossing the street to mail a package containing a human ear when the bus struck him down, but Sam's work isn't anywhere near over. Holly's key takeaways were: This book may be the most horrifying and messed up book Holly has ever read. Dual storylines follow the content of a diary the killer had on his person when he died and the current, real-time hunt for his final victim and both are deeply disturbing. The novel explores the blurred lines between good and evil, as the 4MK sees himself as a punisher of wrongdoers rather than a mere killer. This moral ambiguity challenges readers to question what constitutes true justice and whether taking the law into one's own hands can ever be justified. There isn't a strong sense of Chicago, with the focus resting much more on action and the characters involved. The investigation roves around the city but without too much detail on place, and the diary feels more suburban family life vibes and the tone of it is very midwest, stilted 60s tone. The Heart (19:09): Devin discussed Love at First by Kate Clayborn, a second-chances romance following Will Sterling and Nora Clarke after Will inherits an apartment from his uncle Donny. As the leader of the HOA in a six-unit building that has barely changed in decades, a new presence (especially one who wants to convert the unit for short-term renters) is a threat to everything Nora fights for. Feuding and at loggerheads, Will and Nora can't help but notice there's an undercurrent of something else in their fights and attempts to undermine each other. Devin's key takeaways were: The sense of place isn't super strong in this book because the focal point is a single apartment building in Chicago. Will works at a hospital near the south shore and Nora is much further north. Later in the book there are more scenes set in popular Chicago, but otherwise it's really a character driven story. The tenants in the apartment building that acts as our focal point is a chosen, messy family. Both protagonists struggle with their own biological families and the trauma they got from their parents, but they also both seek found family in their community as it evolves. The primary trope in this novel is enemies to lovers, but even that element is subtle and infused with a lot of emotional intelligence on both parts. It diffuses a lot of tension in the book; Devin was never stressed out or unsure about our protagonists even though it technically followed our classic arc. Alternating between Nora and Will's perspectives, we go deep on who they are and their interior perspectives.

En este episodio, charlamos con dos autores maravillosos de la ciencia ficción y la fantasía. Las distopías sobre Londres, el fin del mundo, las jerarquías sociales y la sobrevivencia a toda costa nos llevan a reflexionar sobre el poder, la comunidad y la literatura que nos lleva a plantearnos nuevas formas de existir. ¡Dale play!
¿Quién no disfruta una buena dosis de suspenso? En este capítulo, nos dejamos emocionar por dos autores expertos en los giros de tuerca y las sorpresas. Mercedes Alvarado conversó con una de las mejores plumas de la ciencia ficción actual: la estadounidense V. E. Schwab, experta en distopías acerca del poder, quien ya cuenta con lectores en todo el mundo. También traemos para ti nuestra charla con el escritor Patrick Morgan, que elabora thrillers psicológicos para llevar a los lectores al límite, ¡y vaya que lo logra! No te pierdas, además, nuestras secciones Lecturas de Película y Horrores de Redactores. ¡Dale play a lo inesperado!
In this podcast episode, hosted by Nina and Anya, the discussion delves deep into V.E. Schwab's 'A Conjuring of Light', the conclusion to the Shades of Magic series, and teases what's to come in 'Fragile Threads of Power'. They explore key character developments, themes of love, loss, responsibility, the emotional depth of the narrative, and the anticipation for the fourth book. Analyses focus on the evolution of characters like Kell, Lila, Rhy, Alucard and Holland, highlighting their struggles with trust, sacrifice, and moral complexities. The hosts appreciate Schwab's character-driven narrative over plot-centric storytelling, noting the emotional resonances, pacing, and execution of fantasy elements that elevate the series. They encourage listener engagement and hint at what's anticipated in the next installment, promising continued discussion on character arcs and thematic concerns within the magical universe Schwab has created.
Vampires, magic, faustian bargains author Victoria Schwab has written about it all.
Summary: Welcome to LoveFest number six, where Holly and Devin gush about the acclaimed fantasy author V.E. Schwab. Every ten episodes our hosts come together to highlight where their tastes intersect. While you may think of V.E. Schwab as being squarely in Holly's wheelhouse, this author is more similar to Neil Gaiman and infuses empathy, care, and creativity into plots so that even the most sensitive romance reader can find something to love. Topics Discussed: Author Background (4:04): Completing her first work at the age of 19, V.E. Schwab (pronouns she/they) has since published more than twenty works for YA and adults. Publishing under the monikers Victoria Schwab and V.E. Schwab, this author is best known for fantasy series that blend with reality and creepy, ghost-filled plots. Highlights for Holly and Devin generally are her monthly newsletter and her almost poetic, haunting style.
