A Cat Prince Distinguishes Himself – a short story on the Dunesteef

If you like short fiction podcasts, I recommend this one. While they are a speculative ficiton podcast, they also produce magical realism stories, [...]

Book III – Episode 10

Book III – Episode 6

Chapter 13. The Three-headed Beast

Chapter 14. The City Out of Time

I got a good response to the last mood music, so I did it again. Let me know if the volume is too soft or too loud. Points to you if you can guess Bal (the youngest Architect)’s full name.

Book III – Episode 5

Chapter 11. Violins

Chapter 12. The City Under the City

I tried something different in this episode – mood music. I’m not sure whether I’ll do that again in this podcast, but I deffinitely want to do it for Cowry Catchers.

The music (used by agreement) was:

Lara St. John, Sonata No 1 in G minor BWV 1001 – [...]

Book III – Episode 4

Chapter 8. What Came from the Flood Tunnels

Chapter 9. Jump

Chapter 10. Departure

Just FYI, Raquar (the swamp faun general from Chapter 8 ) is a main character in another book, Walk Upon High. Reading his lines made me smile. He’s such a jerk and such a fun character to write.
