We dove into the foundations of his massive Fall of Radiance series, beginning with the book that started it all: Ranger’s Oath.The story is a high-stakes journey set in a world where ancient magic is failing, and a collapse seems inevitable. Centered on the weight of duty and the resilience of those sworn to protect a fading realm, Ranger’s Oath weaves a narrative of survival, betrayal, and the sparking of a new legend.Ahead of St. Paddy’s Day, this episode explores the heart of world-building and the relentless grit required to face an impending dark age. Blake and I discuss the intricate craft of turning classic fantasy tropes into a fresh, pulse-pounding saga that feels both nostalgic and entirely original.If you haven’t started the journey yet, you can find Ranger’s Oath (and the rest of the Fall of Radiance series) at the link below:👉 Get Ranger’s Oath on Amazon This is a public episode.
