Ye Olde Dragon's Library: Episode 18

 

Ash and Fang and the ring are on the road again. They have a lot to think about, and a lot of questions that will remain unanswered until Ash completes the quest and she finds out just how far Justiciar Camwell will go to rewrite the terms of the quest and keep her traveling, satisfying his curiosity.

There's a little problem with the maps Blaz gave her, to help her complete her quest faster: they aren't accurate. Or rather, they aren't up-to-date. So she has to risk going into a town to ask questions and find out where exactly she is.

That might not be a good choice ...

*********

We're nearing the end of LIARS' QUEST, the first book in what is tentatively being called the Enchanted Castle Archives.

I hope those of you who have been listening have been enjoying the story. As I upload the podcast episodes, I'm slowly getting further ahead of schedule, and ensuring that if something happens to interfere, the podcast episodes will still be released and you loyal listeners won't be left with silence.

Today, about six weeks before episode 18 airs, I recorded a "look ahead" episode of Ye Olde Dragon's Library, talking about the next book I'll be reading to you, and listing a few changes taking place.

The biggest change is the length of the episodes -- and how many you'll get every week. Instead of one episode between 25 and 30 minutes, I'm planning to upload at least two episodes, of about 20 minutes each. So more story time.

PLUS: I'll be interviewing fellow fantasy and science fiction writers about their newest projects, and posting approximately every other week, so you can hear about other stories that might interest you.

We'll be starting with authors who participate in the 2 yearly anthologies produced by Ye Olde Dragon Books: the fairytale anthology in the spring and the classic monsters anthology in the fall. 

The "look ahead" episode will run May 28. Episode 2-A.

The next story, titled PLANTWISE, will begin on May 30.

So in four weeks ... it's all gonna change!

And if you're a member of the Ye Olde Dragon's Library Patreon group, you'll be helping with the change, because with your member donations, I can increase my hours with the podcast hosting site I use, meaning more episodes loaded every month, and more listening fun for you! So ... consider helping out?
