Is it possible that fantasy fiction can help us to process real-world challenges?

Best-selling author of The Black Witch Chronicles, Laurie Forest joins us to discuss this through the lens of her series, The Black Witch Chronicles.

In a timely discussion that was recorded before the resurgence of book banning, Zoya and Laurie deep dive into a chat about:

How prejudice in the fight for civil unions and marriage equality was a catalyst for The Black Witch Chronicles
Religion, including Wicca, and Paganism
The sentience of trees and establishing a connection with Nature
Young women and their access to books on sexuality and consent
The potential and resistance to fantasy fiction in childhood education
Laurie’s next book in The Black Witch Chronicles, The Demon Tide, released on March 1, 2022
…and much more!

The Black Witch Chronicles series order:

Wandfasted (prequel)
The Black Witch
Light Mage (novella)
The Iron Flower
The Shadow Wand
The Demon Tide
The Battle for Erthia (working title)

*The Rebel Mages is a combination of Wandfasted (book 0.5) and The Light Mage (Book 1.5)
