My name is T. H. Brandt (though there are some who call me "Tim"). I'm a self-published author and a lifelong fan of books and genre fiction.
On this channel, I talk mostly about classic fantasy, science fiction, and pulp, with a smattering of other book-related subjects. If it's got action, adventure, swords, or sorcery, I'm into it!
I also review books from the indie/self-pub scene from time to time.

"I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. You cannot pass... Go back to the Shadow!"
Having just re-read the incredible Balrog encounter from The Fellowship of the Ring, I thought I might as well share the dramatic reading of that scene that I did for Tolkien Reading Day a while back. Enjoy!

Ed Brock @mytholigioused sent some extra additions to the collection! Included is the complete series of BALZAN OF THE CAT PEOPLE, a sword-and-planet trilogy by the late comic legend Gerry Conway (writing as Wallace Moore). I looked the series up and was amused by the snippet of its Wikipedia article, calling it "swill meant for slack jawed teenagers". Consider me hooked!
Thanks again, Ed! 🤘
