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.

  • 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.

Epic Fantasy Adventures with Melinda Kucsera
I am Melinda Kucsera, an indie fantasy author and I narrate chapters from my adventure books, talk about other fantasy books and shows and try my best not to get derailed by the shenanigans of characters who are supposed to be fictional, but they don't stay within the pages of my books. I tell all their secrets and what trouble they get into in between books.
