Some things aren’t for everybody, like our current read NOS4A2, or the new Game of Thrones trailer. But don’t worry, there are plenty of other great things to read like the British Fantasy Award winners and more!
#420 – Spoopy Spoilers
Lots of award winners to beef up your To Be Read lists, plus our assumptions about Murderbot, what makes a spoiler a spoiler, and we wrap up our final thoughts on Terra Nullius.
#419 – Trust me, It’s SciFi
Tom and Veronica are jealous of those with Leviathan Falls ARCs, and wonder if a phobia ever affected your book enjoyment! Plus we kick-off Terra Nullius, and Tom reassures us that it IS SciFi.
#418 – Don’t Fart on My Art
Alastair Reynolds has a book, Tom needs a bookcrate sub stat, and our wrap-up of The Ruthless Lady’s Guide to Wizardry.
#417 – Bong!
We’ve got Dragon Award finalists, a Kickstarter roundup for small publishers, and Tom buys new bookends. Plus, our non-spoiler thoughts on The Ruthless Lady’s Guide to Wizardry.
#416 – Does The Droid Die Dot Com
Poet Andrew Heaton joins us to wrap up our thoughts on Consider Phlebas by Iain M. Banks. Plus, the greatest zombie film in the world and totally metal T-shirts to show your support of Octavia Butler and other awesome authors.
#415 – DisCon is not for Disco
DisCon is not for Disco but it could be? Why Veronica and Tom aren’t idiots. All the summer reading list fodder your list can take. Who was your first binge? And is hard Sci-Fi cold by nature?
#414 – The Age of Aquarium Shoes
Should Tom enter a book contest? Good Omens season 2 is a good idea. And our final thoughts on Piranesi, problematic and otherwise.
#413 – Herlock Shlomes and the Loss of Innocence
Congrats to the Nebula Award winners! Plus, a nine-year-old forum conversation on cover art continues, and our further thoughts on Piranesi (and how learning things can be a bummer sometimes).
#412 – The Year Veronica Returned to Sword and Laser
Veronica is back! And we have good news about TorCon, lots of new book recommendations from iO9, thoughts on the phrase “Asian Fantasy” and our kick-off of the June book pick, Piranesi by Susannah Clarke.
