BronteHOST
And it was very different to Tor's usual books.
BronteHOST
It isn't romantic, it's dark academia, fantasy, but it has enough of those qualities that she does like in things like Legendborn that I thought would interest her.
BronteHOST
I wasn't 100% sure if she would like it, but equally it was a standalone in like 450 pages.
BronteHOST
So it's like not too big of a commitment if you don't like it.

BronteHOST
So often.
BronteHOST
Yeah.
BronteHOST
Do you know where that doesn't happen though? Legendborn.
BronteHOST
I find Bloodmarked the best one.

Mm-hmm.
Tracy DeonnGUEST
But my hair usually, I try and have the color correspond a little bit to the book that I'm promoting.
Tracy DeonnGUEST
And I think my first round of color was very Legendborn red and, and blue.
Tracy DeonnGUEST
Um, and then we did purple, and like there was a lot of purple for Oathbound, like deeper purples and like violets.
speaker_0HOST
So funny.

Once you get into them and you get to know them, you might find some characters annoying at first, but once you get into them and you get to know the characters, they are so... fucking hilarious yeah and one of the big kind of criticisms this series gets is the writing style but the audio is actually really great too yeah so you could do the audios if you are nervous about that writing style because they are even funnier on audio than they are reading them oh so good so good please if you haven't read them think about picking them up for sure and then go and watch our interview with the authors yeah best moment of 2026 yeah it really was the best thing we've done this year yeah it was too good it's such a funny episode as well um and then do you want a second book we'd love that series as well the next series that we love that's academy based is legend born I stan Legendborn so hard.
speaker_0HOST
Again, one of my most favorite characters ever is from this series, which is Selwing Kane.
speaker_0HOST
If you don't know, get to know.
speaker_0HOST
There is fantasy too, but it's dystopian first, I would say.
speaker_0HOST
And...
speaker_0HOST
If you like Red Rising or you like Legendborn, you should read these because it's one you've been recommending to me for ages.
speaker_0HOST
Yeah.

If you were a high school teacher, you can pick the class, the kind of class you teach, English is usually what people do, but if you wanna do something more specific, you can, what's the book you would assign your students?
Jess LeeGUEST
I would probably do Legendborn-
