Our anthologies will be available in audiobook on most platforms that cater to audiobooks, including but not limited to Audible, Spotify, Libby, Kobo, etc.
Podcast
Like your favorite bus line transfers, Lightforge City’s premier podcast is a twofold journey. Part One focuses on episodes featuring single stories read by a pool of talented narrators and voice actors. Part Two follows up on those episodes with interviews helmed by Sam Stark. We'll chat with the authors and deep dive into the creative process from inspiration to procrastination and all the stops along the way.
