Every week, we are highlighting a panel from TBRCon2023, looking back on the amazing variety of panels that we had the honor of hosting.
This week, join moderator/author P.L. Stuart and authors Ed McDonald, Premee Mohamed, Ben Galley, Rebecca Zahabi and Scott Drakeford for a TBRCon2023 author panel on “Hard vs. Soft Magic Systems.”
Daughter of Redwinter is beauty and brutality personified, a perfect melding together of coming of age fiction and the pursuit of finding ones own identity in a world that doesn’t accept you, the exploration of mental health and a character study of one of the most interesting and well realised protagonists I’ve ever had the pleasure of being in the head of.
Join host Adrian M. Gibson and authors Claire North, Rebecca Roanhorse, Ed McDonald and Vaishnavi Patel as they delve deep into antiquity, exploring the intersection of history and fantasy. During the panel they discuss what fascinates each of them about history, why fantasy and history play so well together, how history can apply to worldbuilding, character and plot, the freedom of secondary worlds versus the rich lore of mythological retellings, how fictional stories can highlight obscured histories and much more.
