Alright, we’re not actually becoming a full-time Gormenghast podcast. Life is simply too short.
BUT, we will be covering the first book in the trilogy (Titus Grown) this very month! And there’s plenty of delights in store for the rest of the year.

Genuinely gutted to hear Michelle Trachtenberg has passed away. She was fantastic. As Dawn in Buffy she made an impossible story work, and she stole every scene of Gossip Girl she appeared in. She’s going to be missed.
