Hi, I'm indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, Shannon Holly is joining me to talk about her book, The Door to Trilesk.
What's it about?
Kate's family travels to dimensions using doors only they can see. But the key to saving those hidden worlds and her missing aunt lies in a childhood summer she can't remember and a power she didn't know she had. Against her mother's wishes, Kate returns to her aunt's house, drawn by an inexplicable pull. As memories of a forgotten magical childhood resurface, she discovers her aunt's hidden journal, revealing a family legacy of dimensional travel. When a powerful creature threatens Kate, she realizes her aunt may be alive, held captive for information that could end all worlds. Now, Kate must uncover her own ability to see the doors and embark on a journey to save her aunt and protect multiple dimensions.
The Door to Trilesk is a character-driven modern fantasy with elements of portal fantasy and low magic.
Set in a world where dimensional travel is possible, The Door to Trilesk blends contemporary settings with hidden magical realms.
What's in this episode:

We'll discuss Kate's journey from a young woman with forgotten memories to a dimensional traveler uncovering family secrets, and discover worldbuilding details about the nature of the doors, the threats to multiple worlds, and more.

Hi, I'm indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, L. L. Nelson is joining me to talk about her book, Modern Day Muses.
What's it about?
Alex and Titus survived Mount Vesuvius, but can they survive an immortal hellbent on revenge?
After their escape from ancient Herculaneum, Alex and Titus are safe in modern day America. Alex is home, yet everything has changed. She has plenty on her mind now—her desire for Titus, the realization that she's a time traveler, and keeping her museum job. When Titus finds comfort in the familiarity of military life, Alex is torn between her pacifist background and her desires for a future with him.
Caught between a comfortable past and strange new future, Alex faces an enormous decision: embrace her newfound life with Titus and the Muses, or submit to the manipulative hand of Fate.
Can Alex and Titus defy Fortuna's ruthless schemes, or will they—and their bond—succumb to the unrelenting force of ancient vengeance?
If you love time travel romances (like Outlander), immortals involving themselves in mortal affairs (like Doctor Who), and fresh twists on mythology (like Percy Jackson), then you will love Modern Day Muses and the Tempus Viatores series.
Modern Day Muses is a character-driven time travel romance with fresh mythology.
Set in the Tempus Viatores series created by L. L. Nelson, Modern Day Muses blends contemporary and historical fantasy.
What's in this episode:
L. L. Nelson will take us into a world spanning ancient Herculaneum and modern America with an excerpt from Modern Day Muses, and we'll explore aspects like the immortal vengeful Fortuna, the time travel element, and mythology twists.
We'll find out what to expect from the Tempus Viatores series and maybe get some spoiler-free highlights of what's to come.
We'll discuss Alex's journey caught between her past and future with Titus amidst Fortuna's schemes, and discover worldbuilding details about the muses, time travel mechanics, and more.
Join us in a place where ancient immortals meddle in modern lives, where mythology gets fresh spins, and where time is but a river to cross.

Hi, I'm indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, Isaac Hill is joining me to talk about his book, The Dragon Legion.
What's it about?
Broken generations ago in the Cleansing, The Sunborn Bloodline persists. Dragh, the Sunborn Empire's last son, rises in the ranks of the Second Legion, a Legion of criminals. Sent to quell the rebelling Northern Tribes, the last Sunborn son finds himself in a cruel world of politics, murder and betrayal as he struggles to survive. Welcome to the Sunborn Series, where Empires rise, fall and against all odds, rise again. The Dragon Legion is born.
The Dragon Legion is an action-packed, character-driven fantasy.
Set in the Sunborn Series created by Isaac Hill, The Dragon Legion is fantasy.
What's in this episode:
Isaac Hill will take us into a world of politics, murder, betrayal with an excerpt from The Dragon Legion, and we'll explore aspects of that world, like its empires, legions, and bloodlines.
We'll find out what to expect from the Sunborn Series and maybe get some spoiler-free highlights of what's to come.
We'll discuss Dragh's journey from being the last Sunborn son to rising in the criminal Second Legion, and discover worldbuilding details like the Cleansing event, the Sunborn Empire's fall, and more.
Join us in a place where empires cyclically rise and fall, and the last scion of a bloodline struggles amidst treachery.

Adelei is a master assassin in the feared Order of Amaska. On a supposed suicide mission deep in the Kingdom of Alexander, she finds herself in the hands of her birth father and the Order's enemies. With no holy order to protect her, Adelei tumbles into political schemes and discovers magic is very much alive in the Little Dozen Kingdoms.

Join us in a world where assassins, magic, and the machinations of kings and gods collide and stay for a discussion of her new memoir, Voices Carry.
How did Raven, an abuse-surviving queer, end up teaching in the middle of the Bible Belt? Better yet, how did Raven survive? Find out in Voices Carry, a journey of transition and self-discovery in a world built on silence.
