A Spell's End: Part 1 by E.J. Kitchens [Fantasy retelling]

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 is part one of two, and in honor of Christmas being around the corner, it's a fun and whimsical Nutcracker retelling. It's written by an author we featured before who actually won the 2024 Most Played Episodes Award for her steampunk fantasy story, Dawnbringer, so I already know you all love E.J. Kitchens' stories. Elizabeth loves tales of romance, adventure, and happily ever afters, and strives to write such tales herself. When she's not thinking about her stories or traveling to far-off places, she's enjoying the beautiful outdoors and talking about classic books and black and white movies.

Stick around to the end or check out today's show notes to see where you can find more from Elizabeth. For now, please enjoy A Spell's End: Part 1 by E.J. Kitchens.
