This week on Two Crones and a Book, Annette and Chell spin the bingo wheel and land on the prompt: A place you’ve never been. From the depths of the ocean to the winding paths of a magical house, theCrones take you on a journey through two wildly different realms of fantasy.

🧠 Annette dives into the abyss with Point Nemo by Jeremy Robinson, narrated by R.C. Bray. It’s a mind-bending, bioluminescent romp through the most remote spot on Earth, where science fiction meets cosmic horror and the mushrooms glow withmenace.

🏡 Chell wanders the whimsical corridors of Howls Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones, specifically the illustrated Folio Society edition. With its enchanting artwork and classic Wynne Jones charm, this tale of magical misdirection and reluctant heroism offers a cozy counterpoint to Annette’s deep-sea dread.

Together, they explore how unfamiliar settings shape character, tone, and reader experience—and how fantasy lets us travel to places we may never physically reach, but can always visit in story.
