Everybody’s talking about @caroclaireburke ‘s #YESTERYEAR and we needed to know why. So it’s time for a big departure on DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE as your hosts are diving deep into Caro Claire Burke’s brilliant new novel Yesteryear, which is admittedly…not really sci-fi or fantasy, but is legitimately an incredible, intelligent, and wildly unexpected read. Here’s the scoop: Natalie Heller Mills is the plastered-on smile behind a popular tradwife Instagram account whose perfect facade is beginning to crumble… especially when she wakes up in the 1850s during the era she properties to idolize. It’s thorny, it’s funny, it’s incredibly dark, surprisingly moving, and sharply written. (And, yes, Anne Hathaway will be playing her in a movie) NEXT WEEK: The Last Contract of Isako by Fonda Lee: Chapters 1-13 #booktok #caroclaireburke #tradwide #bookpodcast

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. #jamessacorey #thecaptiveswar #thefaithofbeasts #mercyofthegods #SFFpodcast

You can’t talk about Jacqueline Carey’s beloved KUSHIEL’S DART without talking about…. That cover. The tramp stamp that sold a million copies. But first, pour one out for a dying breed, the mass market paper back. Our three-part series recapping, analyzing, and fan-girling over @jcareyauthor ‘s KUSHIEL’S DART is out now on the DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE pod wherever you get your podcasts! Spoiler alert: according to @jacobodager , it’s his favorite book he’s ever read for the pod. #kushielsdart #jacquelinecarey #booktok #queerfantasy #bookpodcast

The first two episodes of DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE covering the absolutely incredible novel KUSHIEL’S DART by Jacqueline Carey (@jcareyauthor ), are out now wherever you get your podcasts. A winner of the 2002 Locus Award for Best First Novel, it’s a spellbinding and genre-defying sexy queer romance fantasy spy thriller… and one of host William’s all-time favorites. Expect binormative court intrigue, blood play, gorgeous prose, a hot celibate warrior-priest, deeply drawn characters, and an unforgettable evil bisexual dominatrix who may be one of the greatest antagonists in fiction. #kushielsdart #jacquelinecarey #phèdre #queerfantasy #bookclubpodcast

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 #kushielsdart #jacquelinecarey #romantasy #bdsm #phedre

At long last, @dddspod is finally finishing it’s year-long read of the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. There are a lot of pages and characters in this book! Aelin is trapped in a box, Lysandra is cosplaying as the heir of fire without any of the fire magic, Dorian is trying to learn how to shape shift, Manon is uniting the witch tribes, and many, many other characters kill time as we await any meaningful resolution to come in part two. But first, Jacob and William celebrate genre movie wins at the Oscars and William mourns the Buffy reboot. Next week: the epic final conclusion, part two of Kingdom of Ash. #throneofglass #sarahjmass #kingdomofash #romantasy #acotar

Things are getting FREAKY this week on DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE as William and Jacob discuss There Is No Antimemetics Department by antm, a genuinely terrifying, sci-fi/horror phantasmagoria. This club has everything: unknowable entities that eat memories, ideas that kill you if you’re aware of them, Lovecraftian monsters composed of dismembered body parts, and a LOT of giant spiders that are currently all around you-you just can’t perceive them. It’s trippy, it gave both of your beloved hosts nightmares, and it’s quite possibly the scariest book either of them has ever read. Published by @ballantinebooks ! UPCOMING EPISODES: • 3/19: Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J. Maas Part 1 (Chapters 1-67) • 3/26: Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J. Maas Part 2 (Chapter 68-End) #thereisnoantimemeticsdivision #qntm #scifihorror #bookstagram #scpfoundation

This week, DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE podcast is doing a FULL BOOK, FULL SPOILER review of @mattdinniman ‘s OPERATION BOUNCE HOUSE! This one left us glued to the edge of our seats all the way to the book’s epic, twisty, and shocking conclusion. OPERATION BOUNCE HOUSE is super fun, has high stakes, and great pacing. It’s politically resonant, incredibly relevant, wildly inventive, and yet… somehow still a little forgettable overall. We also break down the ways in which it’s both similar and different to the author’s hit Dungeon Crawler Carl series. Tune into the episode to hear how Dinniman manages to make a story about murderous Twitch streamers and their unwitting victims feel like a biting commentary on modern surveillance and civil unrest! #DCC #mattdinniman #operationbouncehouse #acepublishing #sff

This week on the DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE podcast… Hot off the presses, Operation Bounce House by @mattdinniman , author of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series, is bringing zany hijinks and serious sociopolitical commentary to DDDSpod. Oliver, a third-generation colonist on the faraway planet New Sonora, is living a simple life on a remote ranch with his sister Lulu, his rockband The Rhythm Mafia, and a small army of worker robots. That all changes when Apex Industries descends on the planet with a diabolical 5-day “eviction event” to eradicate a nonexistant terrorist threat, called Operation Bounce House, where gamers from Earth will livestream a real-life game where the enemies are the New Sonorans themselves. It’s dark, it’s quick, it’s fun–it’s extremely of the moment. But first, Jacob finishes Demon in White by Christopher Ruocchio, and William decides that jousting just isn’t for him. NEXT WEEK we finish our two-part discussion of the book with a full spoiler review. #operationbouncehouse #mattdinniman #dungeoncrawler #DCC #sffbooks

Warning: This episode contains 20% literary analysis and 80% Jacob and William thirsting over Ser Duncan the Tall [tv version]. That’s right, DDDSpod is in Westeros this week, as William and Jacob are talking all about The Hedge Knight by George R.R. Martin, the source material for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, currently airing on HBO. This buddy dramedy spin on Westeros has Jacob enthralled, and William completely confused as to who anybody is. But first...William journeys to a fantastical lesbian enclave with Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree and Jacob accidentailly overdoses on OTC stress-relief vitamin gummies. UPCOMING EPISODES: February 19: Operation Bounce House by Matt Dinniman, Sections 1& 2 February 26: Operation Bounce House by Matt Dinniman, Full Spoiler Review #georgerrmartin #aknightofthesevenkingdoms #got #bookshopsandbonedust #fantasybooks

We were rooting for you, BLACKTONGUE THIEF, we were all rooting for you! This book started out with a very promising bang but by the end we were feeling let down and disappointed by its failure to deliver. Listen in to the latest DRAGONS DADDIES DEEP SPACE podcast episode to get our book rating and hear exactly why it didn’t live up to the hype. Full book FULL SPOILER discussions. But before we get into all that, Jacob talks about his time with The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter which inspires a novel DDDSpod merch idea. William struggles with SwimP3 technology (look it up), and enjoys a return trip to the universe of Mercy of the Gods via the novella Livesuit by James SA Corey. NEXT WEEK: A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS story, the first Dunk & Egg novella, THE HEDGE KNIGHT by @grrm_nm ! #theblacktonguethief #thehedgeknight #christopherbuehlman #mercyofthegods #thedaughterswar

Episode two of our coverage of @buehlmeister ‘s THE BLACK TONGUE THIEF is out! This ep covers chapters 23-25, and we’re getting human-eating goblins, bath house creeps, and a questionable romance. But before we get into the juicy and inventive #TheBlacktongueThief , Jacob still isn’t sure about Demon in White by Christopher Ruocchio, William is Bob...uh reading We are Legion (We Are Bob) by Dennis E. Taylor, and both Jacob and William visit The Bone Temple and Predator: Badlands. #christopherbuehlman #betweentwofires #thedaughterswar #goblins
