The Blood Ties that bind: Discussing the latest WoW novel

This week Joe is joined by our writer Eric O'Dea to discuss Blood Ties , the newest WoW novel. The events of Blood Ties happen between the end of The War Within but just before Midnight -- basically when we are right now. As such, there will be spoilers for both Blood Ties and a little bit of what we know happens in Midnight . Joe and Eric point out various details they found particularly effective, and things they wished we had more of in other contexts. A fun little dinner party with lots of expository dialogue is a treat, for instance. But there's a lot of ground to cover, and Eric and Joe have a lot to say!
