My desk is covered in post-it notes with scrawls and flashes of inspiration. When you’re not trawling through dungeons, do you prefer to type or to hand-write? Why? I would be a wizard and my weapon would be a magical whip that would turn monsters to dust on contact. What character class are you, and what’s your weapon of choice? Okay, time to escalate things: reality warps and you suddenly find yourself leading a D&D-style party through a monster-infested dungeon. The narrator Nick J.Russo was also fantastic. The story was great and it had wonderful steampunk elements, with transport shaped like bugs and fascinating world building. One fantasy audiobook I listened to recently was called “Under the Rushes” by Amy Lane. Let’s start small: tell us about a great book you’ve read recently!īecause I spend my days in front of a laptop, writing, my poor old eyes can’t cope with reading to relax and so audiobooks have become a huge part of my life in the past few years.
