Fantasy, Lore, & More: Shade of Light

from Epic Fantasy Adventures, Books, Lore, and More! · host Melinda Kucsera

Hi, I’m indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, Kimberly Grymes is joining me to talk about her book, Shade of Light. What’s it about? A mind-infiltrating monster escapes captivity to uncover the mysteries of her past and purpose in this YA dark fantasy adventure. Shade of Light kicks off the character-driven Three Shades Trilogy.  Believing herself a monster, Adele escapes the general holding her captive and returns home, only to encounter the mysterious Shade with similar powers, drawing her into a dangerous quest for self-discovery. What’s in this episode: Kimberly Grymes will pull us into her dark fantasy world with an excerpt from Shade of Light, and we’ll explore Adele’s unique mind powers. We’ll find out if Adele can learn who she is and where she belongs while surviving mounting dangers. We’ll discuss Adele’s journey to determine the kind of person and future she wants. Join us for a thrilling tale of monsters, mysteries, and self-acceptance. We also talk about Preptober, Nanowrimo, and the Spotify/Findaway Voices TOS fiasco affecting authors and their audiobooks.
