Swords up and spellbooks open! This week’s Fave Five From Fans is all about heroes from epic fantasy films. We’re joined by the creative team behind C.M. Willows: Caroline, Marie, and Will. Together we go through your favourite sword-and-sorcery heroes from movies, anime, TV, and books. Which barbarians, rogues, warriors, and wizards made the fans’ list? Who holds up after all these years, and who deserves a comeback?

C.M. Willows also tell us about their new book, Betrothed to the Blade, out now. We talk about how three creators work as one author, where the story came from, and what readers can expect from this sword-and-sorcery adventure.

Grab your blade and join the quest!

📖 Betrothed to the Blade is out now in ebook, audiobook, and paperback. You can get the audiobook anywhere audiobooks are sold.

Returning guest Dame Judy D is back at Plastic Microphone Studios for another round, and it’s Spooky Tober, so the porch light stays on. The challenge is to count down the songs that make the hair on the back of your neck stand up, with one rule: “Thriller” stays in the grave. Along the way there are werewolves with takeout menus, haunted hotels, swamp legends, dancing skeletons and a few theme songs you can’t help snapping along to. Jamie and Judy trade honorable mentions, then count down their five favorites, with a few detours into movie trivia and Halloween traditions.That’s our Fave 5!
