Sophie asked for a recommendation. Chaya prescribed The Song of Achilles. A DM became a dialogue; a dialogue became @thebibiliofilles; and now, finally, a podcast. Chaya is a barrister, Sophie a former editor. We read across all genres and trends, from classics and non fiction, to contemporary fiction, romantasy and everything in between. The Bibliofilles: The Podcast is life through books, where we get to ruminate beyond the reviews and reels, with thematic episodes, academic deep dives, classics, cult favourites and viral sensations. There will be a book club built for those of us who never quite fit the mould. (with a twist, naturally).","last_synced_at":"2026-07-20T10:20:32.231576+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-bibliofilles-7704872"},"episode":{"title":"Sarah A Parker: I Risked Everything","slug":"sarah-a-parker-i-risked-everything","published_at":"2026-06-15T05:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-bibliofilles-7704872/sarah-a-parker-i-risked-everything","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-bibliofilles-7704872","url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/LPS5733937112.mp3","audio_url":"https://traffic.megaphone.fm/LPS5733937112.mp3","summary":"Chaya sits down with the author of the moment New York Times, Sunday Times, Australian and New Zealand bestseller Sarah A. Parker for the most emotional, raw and revelatory interview The Bibliofilles has ever recorded. We're diving into When the Moon Hatched and the newly released sequel The Ballad of Falling Dragons in a completely spoiler-free deep dive that will leave you absolutely wrecked (in the best way). In this episode, Sarah opens up about: - The real man who inspired Kahn yes, he exists, and yes, he gave up his entire career for her - Why she built her entire world behind closed eyelids before writing a single word - The devastating personal grief that gave birth to the dragon moon concept - Her powerful stance on female rage, suppressed identity, and protecting your creative bubble - Why she refuses to look at Goodreads and why you probably shouldn't either Super fans join live with burning questions, including: - What is Kaydence actually an allegory for? - Does Elwyn share Raven's complicated relationship with rain? - Will we ever get side character books set in this world? - How many books are left and is book three already written? This is not just a fantasy podcast episode. This is a masterclass in storytelling, trauma, creativity, and what it means to write a legacy. 👇 All books mentioned are linked below 👇 When the Moon Hatched by Sarah A.
