003 This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me: The Start of a New Fandom Craze

Published on: 25th April, 2026

This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me is the first book in the "Maggie the Undying" series by our favourite authors, known together as Ilona Andrews.

Reenie Nayden, AKA @thefangirlsdelimma joins Paroma (that's me) on a fangirling session over Maggie and her found family.

We are mildly incoherent, but our obsession is strong.

Hello BDH! I've been reading Ilona and Gordon’s books since their debut, and they've kind of ruined the urban fantasy genre for me cause I can't find another writer like them. I'm a full time butler to 3 dogs and 4 cats and live in one of the older cities of India. I love books with intelligent heroines and compassionate heroes. I also have a love for gore and mayhem but can't stand sad endings. I write essays on k-dramas for fun and re-read Kate Daniels when I'm in a slump.
