The Maiden, The Mother, The Crone 
©Sean Crisden

Look at all you’ve done
Since from the trees you’ve come
To stand upright and run
I’ve been watching

Build your towers high
Fire from the sky
Burn until it dies
I’ve been waiting

Shiny things to keep (Waning songs to pull the tides)
Pull them from the deep
Dreaming while you sleep (Half-lidded eye still sees where you have been)
I am rising

Look now to the East (Waxing now a lullaby)
Dawn brings light so sweet
Ash tastes like a feast (I will appear so lift your head again)
Look to the sky
I am coming

I have heard the songs you sing to me
A rare display of beauty and empathy
You’ve grown fat on all her gifts
Emptied the well so none may drink of it
You can’t eat your gold or home
Now you will see you can’t stay on the throne
As you choke on the dirt of the earth and her bones

Eye open wide
I am coming
Look to the sky
I am coming
From the heavens above
I am coming
Fall upon you with love

The crater old will be found by life anew
An eon of time but a breath to forget of you
All you know will be reclaimed
Verdant, the Earth, with sweet summer rain
Ascending again my eye shines down below
The rebirth of sister and new things she grows
Beauty and bounty through my will is done
But if I am needed again I will come
With eye open wide as I black out the sun

Eye open wide
I am coming
Look to the sky
I am coming
From the heavens above
I am coming
Fall upon you with love

Unending night
I am coming
Fade with the light
I am coming
To breathe life again
I am coming
By bringing the end

The Maiden, The Mother, The Crone

‘Made me laugh out loud and feel alive’ AMY SCHUMER

‘Sharp-witted dialogue, charming, smart characters, and tons of heart, Best Men is such a funny, clever, fresh take on a modern romance’ MOLLY SHANNON 

 First comes lust.
An hour after meeting a hot stranger at a bar, Max is with him on the rooftop of his Manhattan apartment, making out.

Then comes hate.
Just five minutes later, Max is bolting back down twelve flights of stairs, hoping never to see him again.

Then comes your best friend’s wedding.
So the last person Max wants to turn up at his best friend’s wedding – where he is official Gay of Honour to the bride – is that very same hot stranger. Or for him to be a Best Man too – for the groom.

Now the co-Best Men are in a fight to the death over who will be the actual best. But although Max wants to keep his friend close, he discovers he wants to keep his enemy even closer…

‘Joyous, funny and very sweet, this is one to savour’ STYLIST

‘Best Men takes the reins of the rom com and reinvents the genre in a thoroughly modern way . . . inventive, hilarious and satisfying, it’s also a keenly-observed portrayal of love and friendship. This is a hilarious, heartfelt charmer of a book’ GRANT GINDER, author of The People We Hate at the Wedding

‘With an unforgettable voice, Best Men is all at once funny, tender and wise. A sexy, swoony, summer love story to get lost in!’ ASHLEY HERRING BLAKE, author of Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail

Never Too Soon Sample

We're throwing it back to 2015 in today's episode of the Audiobook Lovin' Series 2025 with the fabulous Author Darynda Jones!

Darynda has long been one of our favorite authors and favorite people, and revisiting this episode 11 years after it originally aired is a total wow moment. It's incredible to see how far we've come since then!

If you haven't read her books yet, I highly recommend diving into the Charley Davidson Series—you’re in for a treat!

Now, sit back and enjoy this blast from the past!

Guest: Author Darynda Jones

Co-host: Kelly from Books-n-Kisses
