Episode 553: Jim Butcher's Codex Alera Series

The Blasters & Blades Podcast

The long-awaited episode where we dive into the iconic Codex Alera universe by Jim Butcher. We talked about the origin of this series and then why we love it. It was a blast, and I am now convinced that I need to read it for myself! This time we’ve got James JE Pittman, Jesse James Fain and Wayland Smith on to talk nerdy with us. This was a fun panel, so check out this episode. Lend us your eyes and ears, you won't be sorry!!

Join us for a fun show! We're just a couple of nerdy Army veterans geeking out on things that go "abracadabra," "pew," "zoom," "boop-beep" and rhyme with Science Fiction & Fantasy.

Co-Hosts:
JR Handley (Author) (Grunt)
Nick Garber (Comic Book Artist) (Super Grunt)
Madam Stabby Stab (Uber Fan) (Horror Nerd)
