In 2013, Alex Shaw published a small novel called The Cartographer’s Handbook, the first in a series called The New Century Multiverse. The premise is alt history, where post-Civil War America is suddenly overcome with a plague of dangerous monsters that overwhelm the Reconstruction, and bring the nation to its knees. The series is not about its fall, however, but about the heroes that help bring it back from the brink, and step into a wider world that is not the one they knew. New mysteries to unlock, magics to discover, and worlds to explore. Ten years later, the New Century Multiverse is now thirteen books strong, with more on the way. It has had 2 major story arcs, an Avengers style coming together of the heroes of its various books, and multiple worlds and genres to explore. This is its first fan podcast. Through The Wind Door is a deep dive exploration of the novels and their corresponding audiodramas, along with interviews of the cast and creators. Accessible to new readers and long time fans, join Greg and Toby as they share thoughts about this engaging series.

Okay.
Let's try this one more time.
Once more after a too long hiatus, we're back with our retrospective on The Princess Thieves. And while I'll still be working on other side projects in between, the episodes will keep coming, as I've got three more episodes after this - in the can - to process.
So lets see more about what our guardians of Keledor get into, hmm?

Today is the music episode! Or well, mostly the music episode. We go in depth with a lot of the most important or notable tracks in the Princess Thieves sound track, though more conversation is down the road as tracks come up in the story.
We also have more character discussion, specifically with regards to Meg and The Nag, but also a pivotal conversation between Baltus, Duke Coriolanus, and Mortimer Wilson, as we continue to unpack the motivations, feelings, and character of the Grand Duke.
Outtakes at the end... and a little something extra.

Listen to us discuss all the characters that have been introduced so far: Gwen, Viola, Robin, Oberon, Scarlett, Captain Baltus, and finally Grand Duke Coriolanus, wherein we start looking for answers to a question I started pondering back in 2019!
Enjoy yourselves... and listen to the very end. If you fidget, if you look away, if you forget any part of what I tell you...
