Craig, Ryan, and Kenn talk about the second half of Joe Abercrombie's The Blade Itself. Is this really the first book in a series, or do we need a different way to think of this one? What's the most "grimdark" line in the book? And are any of these characters worth rooting for?

This is one of those books whose title tells you quite a bit. The book is Origins of The Wheel of Time: The Legends and Mythologies that Inspired Robert Jordan, and it's about...well, that! Craig sits down with the author, Michael Livingston, to scratch the surface of what's in the book, and eventually they take off their official interview hats to get down and nerdy about how much they love The Wheel of Time.
Pre-order (or order!) the book here

Craig, Ryan, and Kenn talk about the first half of Joe Abercrombie's "The Blade Itself," book one in the First Law trilogy. Does it live up to expectations? Should we even *have* expectations? There's humor, there's prose, and there's character work to talk about, not to mention your own questions for us, so plenty to dive into.

Craig and Ryan welcome Mary Robinette Kowal to the Author's Shelf. She asked the guys to read The Dispossessed, the award winning 1974 novel by Ursula K. Le Guin. There were some hiccups with the audio that had to be edited around, but the conversation was good enough that we were going to bring it to you regardless. Enjoy!
