A Dark and Drowning Tide is a novel that Ronnie has previously tried to get on the podcast, but unfortunately was delayed due to publishing issues. Now, the book is finally out, and it's Pride! Allison Saft's novel is a sapphic enemies to lover story which follows Lorelei and Sylvia as they embark on an expedition to find the Ursprung: the fabled source of all magic. This expedition has been ordered by the king who has recently "united" all of the kingdoms around him and seeks the Ursprung to cement his power. Along the way, the group deals with murder, infighting, romance, and magical beings, but this isn't just an expedition for fame and glory, Lorelei needs to succeed in this mission, not just for herself, but also for her people.
