  • #15 The Serpent and the Wings of Night: Chapter 26 - 41
    Nov 12 2024

    Sam and Dan discuss chapter 26 - 41 of Carissa Broadbent's The Serpent and the Wings of Night.

    SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading the chapters we're covering before listening.

    Things got really hot and steamy in this section of the book, and we delve uncomfortably deep into the lusty and the romantic elements of Oraya and Raihn's relationship. As war breaks out, we analyse how Vincent is 'performing' as Vincent the King and Vincent the father. We try to guess who 'Nessanine' might be, as a character from Raihn's past. And, as usual, we make all kinds of predictions and guesses ahead of reading the final quarter of the story.

  • #14 The Serpent and the Wings of Night: Chapter 13 - 25
    Oct 29 2024

    Sam and Dan discuss chapter 13 - 25 of Carissa Broadbent's The Serpent and the Wings of Night.

    SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading the chapters we're covering before listening.

    We dive yet further into this sexy vampire-romantasy. We get into some of Oraya's daddy issues. We theorise about what makes her special, and why she is sooo delicious to all the vampires. We assess the main love interest, Raihn, and debate whether we think we're headed in a more lusty or romantic direction... maybe it's both! And as usual, we have lots of predictions to share about where we're going to end up.

  • #13 The Serpent and the Wings of Night: Prologue - Chapter 12
    Oct 15 2024

    Sam and Dan discuss the prologue to chapter 12 of Carissa Broadbent's The Serpent and the Wings of Night.

    SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading the chapters we're covering before listening.

    We've got a brand new book to deep-dive into. It's supposed to be one of the hottest books of the year, featuring sexy vampires and a Hunger Games-style life-or-death contest.

    We discuss our first impressions of the world and how it compares to other famous vampire stories we know and love, the main characters and, as usual, make our predictions about where this bloody story is heading.
