Summary: In which Prince Arthur meets Merlin and all hell breaks lose.


Well first of all, a big thanks to rageprufrock for not only writing what is probably my very favorite Merlin fic, but letting me share it with you all as well. This is another podfic for me that has been a long time coming. I originally recorded it somewhere around the vicinity of summer 2009 and then tucked it away for myself because another podficcer had beat me to requesting it. Seeing as a bit of time has passed and there's been some interest building for it again, I contacted Pru back and she was kind enough to speak to the original requester on my behalf. They were very gracious and were fine with letting me post my version first.

So hey, if you don't like it my reading, be reassured that at some point you can probably expect a better one. :)

I had a lot of fun recording this! It was difficult not to crack up trying to say some of the lines and reading the articles in the appropriately annoying netspeak. (Pretty sure my neighbors think I read the internet out loud now.) And I kind of love channeling Bradley James' voice. Especially when he is saying things like "The Prince of Wales does not molest children!"

For the full experience, you should also head over to the original story and see all the amazing artwork that is interspersed with it because the images add a lot, and there is some detail there that didn't necessarily make it into the main podfic. Also, it is all gorgeous.


Finally, a reminder! You have up until 12pm EST on Wednesday to bid on a podfic up to 10,000 words from me over at help_haiti. I will read you pron or whatever suits your fancy for a good cause! The smoking hot sextras from this series are mostly under 10,000 words. Wink wink, nudge nudge. :D
