056. A Touch of Darkness AND Neon Gods: "Once I eliminated that, I went 'Oh! this is a really good meaty story' "

A Court of Fandoms and Exploration - A Podcast.

ACOFAE Podcast presents: A Touch of Darkness and Neon Gods

You know how you can have different versions of the same thing, and both of those versions are pretty good, and you enjoy them separately, but you absolutely prefer one over the other? This is the situation Laura Marie and Jessica Marie find themselves in as they compare and contrast (no competition here!) AToD and Neon Gods. Laura Marie prefers Neon Gods and Jessica Marie prefers AToD and the reasons are probably what you would and would not expect. Aggressive fingering, shivering, yeahhhhhs, and the recommendation to maybe read this one in print, Laura Marie and Jessica Marie are trash for Hades and Persephone and always will be.

AToD = "A Touch of Darkness"
