We\\u2019re roaring into 2019 like teenage griffins thanks to Diana Wynne Jones\\u2019 Dark Lord of Derkholm! Revisit cruel capitalist overlord Mr. Chesney and learn whether you, too, are more affected by this book as an adult. Inspired by the trials and tribulations of the Pilgrim Party organizers (and the pilgrims themselves), Grace relives her worst job and Madeleine her worst camping experience. This one really took us back! Plus: decide whether Derk is initially a bit of a jerk, wonder at exactly what Lydda\\u2019s godlike snacks are, and reflect on just how incredible DWJ is (again and again).

This episode was a listener request - thanks, Tim! If you\\u2019d like to request a book for us to cover, email us at dragonbabiespodcast@gmail.com.
