Tales of high fantasy, of trials and triumph, of quests both epic and mundane, as well as the occasional musical number. The realm of Yyrgsland is filled to the brim with all manner of folk that would perhaps have made even the late and great Tolkien himself snicker in delight.

Join us as we follow Jade, an Ozark folk witch who runs an occult bookstore and gives tarot readings. In our inaugural season, Jade is dealing with the local coven breathing down her neck as a string of murders occur in her neighborhood.
We’ve another suggestion for a great tale for #AudioFictionSunday this week, and it’s once again a favorite of our curator, @evoterra:
"I recommend Tumanbay, a dramatized #fantasy series from iHeartPodcasts & Goldhawk Productions. Don't let the "fantasy" part fool you. This is much more of a military/administration/coup kind of story, which arguably sounds less sexy than ‘fantasy.’ But I enjoyed it immensely. Perhaps you will as well.”
Tumnabay is a complete series. Queue this one up for your next long trip, as the 34 episodes of the 4 seasons will last you about 30 hours.
Tumanbay: the most magnificent city on earth. The beating heart of a vast empire. A city of dreams – where those who once arrived as slaves now reside in the seat of power.
Word of mouth goes a long way in podcasting, and that’s what #AudioDramaSunday is all about! If you need something new in your ears this week, here’s a personal recommendation from our curator, @evoterra. Here's what he had to say about Desert Skies, a dramatized #fantasy / #comedy from Jared Carter.
"True story: Jared literally begged me to listen to this show, and I loved it. Think 80s-sitcom, but in the best possible way! It's a bit of a slow burn, but once it gets going, you'll be hooked!”
Desert Skies has reached the Season 1 finale, giving you 13 episodes and a little over 6 and a half hours of sitcom-y goodness.
