In which we’re back, baby, all cultured up from our summer holiday to tell you what’s good in books, shows, comics & more. You can get us from iTunes or over at Galactic Suburbia.
Thank our Patreons for the Alisa’s headphones which have greatly improved our sound quality!
Alisa is about to go to print on the Year’s Best YA.
Over the summer, as well as appearing on Galactic Suburbia’s sister-wife podcast Verity!, Tansy also guested on the Two Minute Time Lord talking about the Doctor Who Christmas special. Yes, Chip’s episodes are totally 2 minutes or less most of the time, but of course Tansy talked for longer than that, don’t be ridiculous! Tansy also wrote an article on Sex & Science Fiction over at Uncanny Magazine.
Alex has an exciting new announcement too, but you’ll have to listen to find out what it is. (cough, Tor.com, cough)
The Locus Recommended Reading List is out now, and features lots of Aussies.
