DTR: Down To Read
This is the podcast for dragon riding witches and the people who love to read about them. Your hosts Ali Plante (librarian + medievalist) and Jackie Jennings (SYFY host + writer) are two friends who love all things fantasy, sci-fi, romantasy and historical fiction.
You know that text thread you're on where everyone is freaking out over Azriel + Elain memes, screaming about HotD, and sharing deep cut faerie smut recs? This is that...in podcast form
Join them as they dive into their current reads, analyze the latest news and trends in speculative fiction.
DTR: Down To Read
Episode 6: Don’t Give It To Sanderson
For this immediately post-election, deeply felt, and fully unhinged episode, Ali and Jackie are brining you some news you can(not) use!
This week, A+J were all about:
Folk of the Air Series by Holly Black
Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J Maas
Wonderbook by Jeff Vandermeer
Two Can Play by Ali Hazelwood
Fable for the End of the World by Ava Reid
Gild by Raven Kennedy
Ice Planet Barbarians by Ruby Dixon
THRUM by Meg Smitherman
Jackie was less than thrilled to admit to listening to The Daily, so if you have recommendations, let us know!
