Nerdy Rewind: Tough Like Auren (Gold by Raven Kennedy)
Hello fellow nerds! This week we are taking a break from our Butcher & Blackbird read along and sharing one of our fave previous episodes with you! This episode is from Season 3, Episode 18 where we discuss the book "Gold" by Raven Kennedy, chapters 1-16.
Join us as we chat about:
The origin of ice queen lore (before Let It Go was a thing)
How different fantasy authors have humans traveling to fae lands
Our predictions on when Slade and Auren might reunite.
Visit ournerdiestthing.com for Our Nerdiest Cocktail, named “Aurous Spritz”, which is themed after the intertwining of gold and rot.
