Fathers and Sons Part 1 by pdmac [Epic Fantasy Short Story]

Karyne (00:00:07) - Hi fantasy readers. This is Karyne Norton, your fellow book binger, and you are listening to the Finding Fantasy Reads podcast where you can test out a new fantasy story every single week to find your next favorite author.

Today's story has another unusual look at an artisan in a fantasy world. It also explores the relationships between family and the pros and cons of chasing dreams. It's written by pdac, who spent a career in the US Army before transitioning to education as a university academic dean, and now he writes full-time. If that's not enough, he's also sung backup for Broadway plays, provided voice for radio plays, and acted and directed theater stage productions. In his off time, he and his wife enjoy cycling, kayaking, and traveling.

Today's narrator is Paeter Frandsen, host of Christian Geek Central. Stick around to the end, or check out today's show notes to see where you can find more from both the author and the narrator, as well as how to enter our newest wintery giveaway.

For now, please enjoy Fathers and Sons, Part 1 by pdmac.

Karyne (01:04:53) - I hope you enjoyed listening to Fathers and Sons, Part 1 by pdmac, narrated by Paeter Frandsen of Christian Geek Central. If you want to read more by pdmac, you can find his books on Amazon, and I'll have a direct link in the show notes. This particular story is from the Chronicles of Mirstone anthology, and inside it you can find Part 2 of Fathers and Sons, and other short stories from different authors as well.

If you enjoyed listening to Paeter narrate the story, you might also enjoy listening to his audio dramas at spiritblade.com, or his podcast, Christian Geek Central, where he discusses movies, video games, and all things enjoyed by self-proclaimed geeks from a Christian worldview.

This month, several authors who've been featured on Finding Fantasy Reads have teamed up with me to give away four wintery fantasy audio books and a three month Audible subscription. And yes, even if you're in the southern hemisphere and your summer is approaching, you can still enter because it's open internationally. The four audio books include Chronicles of Narnia (the whole series, even the non-wintery parts) The Winter King by Christine Cohen, Wolf Soldier by James R. Hannibal, and The Snow Queen Saga by K.M. Shea. So if you want a chance to win, go to findingfantasyreads.com/giveaway to enter. I'll have a direct link for that in the show notes as well.

Thank you all for listening, and happy reading.
