Brooks's Books

The end of the season is upon us, and it's time to deal with this Morgawr guy once and for all. We're in for a wild ride, and our enthusiasm for different parts of the book vary just as wildly. Join us as we discuss the return of book 1's pacing issues, the satisfying return of a sidelined character, and the bizarre decisions made about how this book treats women.

Next time we're watching Treasure Planet! The time after that we're watching Reign of Fire! And the time after THAT we're starting Season 7 of Brooks's Books with Sometimes the Magic Works.

Freed from the tyranny of fantasy reference books, we return to resolve those big cliffhangers from the end of Antrax! Morgawr may not have the breadth of horrifying concepts as Antrax did, but it sure has one really strong one. Join us as we get into how Terry starts to converge the separate story threads, the bold choice of reducing a character to a Macguffin, and dive deep into our feelings on the end of a character we love.

Send us questions at brooksbooksshow@gmail.com and we might answer them on the show! If you'd like to send us financial support, head over to ko-fi.com/brooksbooksshow.

Next time we're reading chapters 18-33 of Morgawr.

Sometimes on this show we get to read really excellent books. Sometimes there's really great writing and themes. Compelling character arcs. Interesting worldbuilding ideas. Maybe even some good horror.

Sometimes, instead, we read The World of Shannara.

Welcome to Brooks's Books, the show where we're tormented by an evil AI for all eternity! Join us this week as we discuss how Leah wants better for Ryer Ord Star, Dave dislikes Phoenix Stones, and Josh believes that Bek Rowe is the personification of the Sword of Shannara.

Our schedules have been crazy lately, and Josh and Leah are stuck recording without Dave! We can't just finish Antrax without him on board, so instead the siblings got together to talk about some media we've enjoyed (or not enjoyed) recently.

Next week we'll be back to our normal schedule, with the back half of Antrax.
