Thank you so much for checking out the World of Azuria podcast! This episode introduces you to me, Beth Ball, author of the Age of Azuria series, and covers what we'll be exploring together in the World of Azuria podcast!

Hello adventurers,

And welcome to the World of Azuria podcast! I am so excited to be sharing stories with you here on your favorite podcatcher! 

But before we dive into some high fantasy fiction magic, who am I, and what kind of stories am I going to tell? 

Well, my name is Beth Ball, and I’m the author of the Age of Azuria high fantasy series. You may know me from my work in the tabletop roleplaying space where I write 5th edition adventures with my husband Jonathan as part of D&D Duet. 

Outside of that work, I’m also a PhD candidate who is so close to finishing her dissertation on reading ecology. 

But let’s talk about the World of Azuria podcast. Most of the episodes will consist of chapters from my novel series, Age of Azuria. Others will dive into the lore behind Azuria and explore the myriad stories that make up the characters and settings of this intriguing land. 

So, if you enjoy high fantasy worlds, immersive settings, nature-based magic, and vivid characters, then this podcast is for you! I hope you’ll join me and allow yourself to be swept away into a magical world of druids, pirates, werewolves, and more! 

Let’s start our adventure!
