Hi, I'm indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, Catherine Witzaney is joining me to talk about her book, Wingless.
What's it about?
In a world where everyone can fly, Asher is a wingless sprite orphaned at a young age. When his adopted sister falls deathly ill, he'll risk anything to save her - even striking a bargain with a mysterious bat sprite, a species he's been taught to never trust. His quest leads him into the heart of the bat colony, where he must rethink everything about himself and bat sprites.
Wingless is a soaring middle-grade fantasy adventure filled with courage, danger, and self-discovery.
What's in this episode:
Catherine Witzaney will whisk us into her captivating world with an excerpt from Wingless, spotlighting young Asher's plight.
We'll discuss worldbuilding the contrasting societies of sprites and bat sprites and Asher's struggle with identity.
We'll explore themes of prejudice, trust, and finding one's true self despite preconceptions.
Join us in a world where the ability to fly is only outmatched by the power of opening one's mind and heart.
