DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE

DDDSpod is back covering book two of James S.A. Corey's Captives War trilogy as Jacob and William discuss parts one and two of The Faith of Beasts. Dafyd is trying his best to hold it together as he's now the leader of the human moiety at the Carryx World Palace, and Jessyn makes an unexpected discovery while hoping to not run out of her antipscyhotic decoction. Your hosts couldn't be more thrilled to be back in this world, and the pages are breezing by like stars in asymmetrical space.

But first...It's a huge week for the pod as William and Jacob experience their first online hate. They couldn't love their antagonist more, and they hope he continues to waste his time listening to them! All that plus impressions of the new hit movie Mother Mary and the video game PRAGMATA.

It's time for the epic conclusion of Kushiel's Dart by Jacqueline Carey! Phèdre no Delaunay's roadtrip through alternate Europe continues as she visists Tsinganos, Picts, Albans and a ticked-off sea deity. Will Phèdre no Delaunay be able to use her powers of spycraft, linguistics and sensuality to unite the kingdoms of Alba and Terre D'ange to eliminate the Skaldi threat? You'll find all that and more as both William and Jacob gush over this lush five-star novel.

But first, a Winds of Winter rumor from a 'publishing assistant' on 4chan, and live reactions to the Sunrise on the Reaping movie trailer.

DDDSpod is back with the sultry angel descendents this week, as your hosts discuss chapaters 31-60 of Kushiel's Dart by Jacqueline Carey. The plot turns unexpectedly as the story ramps into gear, the stakes clarify, and the central romance develops. Despite the significant time investment required, your hosts are still loving every hour they're spending with this book.

Before they get there, William encounters a chaotic twink at a touring production of Monty Python's Spamalot he wasn't at all prepared for, Jacob defies the critics and loves his time at the Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and both hosts surface some disturbing trends in the popular book landscape.

Get ready to give your safe word, because DDDSpod is diving into Jacqueline Carey's 2001 BDSM historical fantasy masterpiece, Kushiel's Dart. The first thirty chapters of this precursor to modern (inferior) romantasy establish an evocative world of seduction and subterfuge—and your hosts can't get enough.

But first–Taylor Frankie Paul eats up more oxygen and both hosts wonder how bookstagrammers can keep track of their expectations.

NEXT WEEK: Chapters 21-60 of Kushiel's Dart

After a year of on-again/off-again journeying with Aelin Galathynius, FKA Celaena Sardothien, DDDSpod has finally finished the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. In this week’s episode, your hosts focus on Kingdom of Ash’s Part 2: Gods and Gates, but they’re ready to pass judgment on the mammoth final volume and the series as a whole. Was it time well spent? Honestly, they're not sure.

But first, Jacob is underwhelmed by Project Hail Mary (movie) and overwhelmed by Crimson Desert (videogame), William is still at the beach, and they’re both very ready to move on with their literary lives as they head to the sensual world of Terre D’Ange in Jacqueline Carey’s Kushiel’s Dart. Their chat through Chapters 1-30 drops April 2nd.
