Episode 52 - Arrows of the Queen, by Mercedes Lackey

Madeleine and Grace have officially been Chosen and are heading to the Collegium! Hop on your companion and join us in discussing Arrows of the Queen, by Mercedes Lackey. We revel in the warmth of the community and beauty of small moments, and admire Lackey’s courage in writing a loving story about a bunch of absolute sweeties (with just a few mid-book bullies). We also unpack the book’s compelling discussion of processing trauma and turning empathy into magic. Are you an exhausted introverted empath like us? Then you’ve found your home.

Plus: our favorite magical schools. Sympathetic saviors. Eating horse food at way stations. Join us!

Grace foolishly returned our copy to the library before getting a picture of the back cover, so enjoy the floating head (plus two more floating heads that were covered by the library label!!) as it was intended - surrounded by a black eBay void.
