S3E18: Music in Fantasy with Author-Composer Marla Himeda

Today I talk music and Fantasy with author-composer Marla Himeda. She not only wrote an original book series, but it is centered around a bardic culture which, in her stories, left Ireland and emigrated just over the horizon to the west, to a group of islands she calls the Bardic Isles. There, music itself carries real power and plays a central role in the story. Please enjoy this fascinating conversation.

You can find her work–both prose and the music that accompanies the story–at https://www.mhimedabooks.com/ and can purchase book 1 at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C2D5P4DC. (Book 2 is on the way!)

We’ll see you next Thursday.
