Bonus Episode - The Curse of Frankenstein

July 30, 2021

It’s another bonus episode featuring the work of JH Brennan, author of the Grailquest book we covered in our last bonus episode. This time he’s taking on gothic horror in the form of an ambitious adventure gamebook that you can play either as Baron Frankenstein or his monstrous creation. There’s big ideas everywhere in this one but can he manage to stick the landing and maintain an appropriately gothic tone? Find out by listening! Special thanks to a new patron, Saul Alexander. You can be like him by going to patreon.com/hjdoom and pledging as little as a single english pound.

Bonus Episode - Grail Quest 2: Den of Dragons

May 26, 2021

Another bonus episode is here! What joy. This time we’re taking a turn through Den of Dragons, the second book in the Grail Quest sequence by prolific UK author JH Brennan. A deadly Brass Dragon is menacing Avalon and King Arthur has told Merlin to tell you to embark on a dangerous quest to destroy the fell beast. Armed with a talking sword (actually pretty quiet) and a whole bunch of spells we’ll be taking on the role of Pip, the pleasingly gender neutral protagonist, and trying our best not to be get killed immediately on leaving home. If you’d like to help fund more bonus episodes then you can do so by going to patreon.com/hjdoom and pledging as little as a single pound.
