Book-Bat

C.S. Lewis, xenofiction, and manga, oh my! Tune in for playful banter – and occasional thoughtful thoughts – on all things fantasy! Husband and wife duo Karlissa J. and Jason team up to tackle topics from fun books to classic authors, movie introspection to the magic of friendship, all from within the framework of their Christian faith. Every March is the Month of Sonic the Hedgehog, and every so often Brian Jacques, George MacDonald, and indie authors are sure to come up in discussion.
