In this episode of The Happy Rant Podcast Ted, Ronnie, and Barnabas do what they always do and wander to and fro through a variety of topics:
- An update on yoda tweeting
- Blurbing Echo Island
- Left Behind rip offs
- The type of novel we would write
- Self-publishing benefits
SPONSORS
Check out Echo Island, Jared C. Wilson’s new novel. In his own words, “The book is aimed at young adults, probably ages 13 to 19 or so, but I really think the literary quality of it and the mystery aspect of it may afford it a broader appeal. I would say that any reader who has enjoyed the fiction of C.S. Lewis (either Narnia or the Space Trilogy, or both), has an appreciation for speculative fiction (sci-fi, apocalyptic, etc.), mysterious or “meta-fiction” will like the book. Any reader who enjoys a more sophisticated adventure story heavily influenced by ancient myths and classic literature—and how a story full of these elements might say something about God and human existence/freedom—will enjoy Echo Island.
