full transcript

Karyne (00:00:06) – Hi fantasy readers. This is Karyne Norton, your fellow book binger, and you are listening to the Finding Fantasy Reads podcast, where you can test out a new fantasy story every single week to find your next favorite author.

Today’s story is a bit grittier with your classic sword and sorcery fantasy. It follows a young elf dedicated to becoming a warrior and shows how ambition can carry a steep price. It’s written by Jeffrey L. Kohanek, who writes about unlikely heroes overcoming impossible odds to save worlds.

And speaking of unlikely heroes, when you sign up for his newsletters, you can expect to see his adorable pups, Frodo and Lionel. I think they’re French bulldogs, maybe pugs – I don’t know dog breeds. But that doesn’t stop me from appreciating pictures of adorable dogs dressed up for holidays. I’m sure one of you will be quick to educate me after you see them.

Today’s narrator is Paeter Frandsen, host of Christian Geek Central. Stick around to the end or check out today’s show notes to see where you can find more from both the author and the narrator, as well as how to enter our brand new giveaway for the month of July. For now, please enjoy Soul Blade by Jeffrey L. Kohanek.
