In 1970 Avon Books published a landmark anthology “Science Fiction Hall of Fame” featuring 16 classic short stories that represent landmark tales of the genre. The stories were voted on by the members of the new (at the time in the late 60s) organization Science Fiction Writers of America. In this series, I will be joined by a panel of different guests to break down these stories and talk about the authors in the book.

Welcome to Light On Light Through, Episode 360, in which Joel McKinnon and Cora Buhlert join me for a conversation about The Beatles' "Now and Then". We had reconvened for a conversation about the second season of the Foundation series on Apple TV+ -- I had asked them to join me to talk about the first season back in 2021 -- but Joel, who's been in a band for decades, asked me what I thought of The Beatles new single, and this led to a conversation about the new single, The Beatles in Hamburg, AI and recording, and lots of observations you won't hear any place else. (And look next week for the conversation about Foundation that ensued.) Relevant links: my review of "Now and Then" our 2021 conversation about the 1st season of Foundation
Cora Buhlert is a Hugo award winning indy Sci Fi writer and an expert on the Golden Age of Science Fiction, from the 1930s to the 50s, the period when Asimov fell in love with Sci Fi and became one of its greatest writers at a young age. Cora shares some of her favorite reflections on the period and comments on the new Apple TV adaptation of Foundation.Active Transcript (read/listen)
I podcast, therefore I am. Or is it, "I podcast, therefore I philosophize?" If you've listened to some of our recent episodes, you might think it's the latter as recently we're delved into topics like free will and pondered whether there's an objective morality beyond things that we might be programmed with, like societal norms or the Three Laws of Robotics. Well, if you like that stuff, you'll love this episode! There's a new book out called Asimov's Foundation and Philosophy (AF&P), a collection of essays about... well, you've figured that out, right? Remember books, by the way? They're weird. You can read them, but they don't have batteries and they're made of wood of all things! We discuss this book with three of the authors who are simultaneously two-and-a-half special guests! Josef Simpson is one of the editors of AF&P and helped bring the book to life. He also wrote "A Foundation-al Lesson on Free Will and Determinism" for the project. Our second guest is long-time friend of the show, Cora Buhlert! Cora was our first guest way back in Season 1 Episode 7. She now becomes our first returning guest and the first Hugo Winner to appear on our show as she was chosen the Best Fan Writer for 2022! Congratulations, Cora! Cora contributed "Between Cynicism and Faith" fo AF&P. The book also contains a chapter by our very own Dan Fried, "The Dao of Psychohistory!" Thus, Dan is our one-half of a special guest as he splits his duties between interviewer and interviewee! So if our excursions into philosopy have wheted your appitite for such things, pick up a copy of Asimov's Foundation and Philosophy. You're sure to enjoy it! And if you want to read the book without harming a trees, or through inaction allowing a tree to come to harm, here's one one option.

In November 1933 Weird Tales featured the first published science fiction of Catherine L. Moore, who wrote under the name CL Moore. This story Shambleau features a very cosmic horror style vampire and space rogue decades before Han Solo became a thing. This story has the elegant purple prose that Lovecraft was known for while at the same time featuring themes that would be considered lurid today. In this episode we look into CL Moore's life, growing up in my home state of Indiana, going to college walking distance from my childhood home, her first adventures in publishing, and then of course we talk about the story. Featuring Cora Buhlert who won a Hugo award for best fan writer since we recorded this episode, and bestselling author and editor Greg Cox.

Oliver and Nicole Emmelhainz discuss her essay on feminism and sword & sorcery, "A Sword-Edge Beauty as Keen as Blades: The Gender Dynamics of Sword-and-Sorcery"! This covers things like Weird Tales Magazine, Robert E. Howard and Conan, Jirel as "Alice in Wonderland with a big sword", Howard and Lovecraft's correspondence with each other as well as fellow Weird Tales writers like Moore, S&S writing as "an opportunity to expose gender as fundamentally performative in nature", growth and change in Conan, the flexibility of sword and sorcery, what Nicole sees as the necessary qualities for an S&S story to be feminist, defying gender roles, the body as a vessel for victory, S&S as a very body-centric genre, good old barbarism vs civilization, queer possibilities in S&S, an intriguing ambiguity in the ending of Black God's Kiss, what might be a "trans utopic space" in sword and sorcery?, the potential for expanding the space of sword & sorcery along lines of gender & sexuality, cozy fantasy, and more! Nicole's Essay Gollancz collection of all six Jirel of Joiry Stories Read Black God's Kiss for free here Dehumanizing Violence and Compassion in Robert E. Howard's “Red Nails”, an essay Nicole mentions, written by her husband Jason Ray Carney The Whetstone Tavern Discord The Dark Man Journal of Robert E. Howard and Pulp Studies That cool trans-centric "zombie" apocalypse novel Oliver mentions, Manhunt The episode of The Appendix N Book Club focused on Jirel of Joiry, featuring friend of the show Cora Buhlert.

Cora Buhlert is a Hugo-nominated author and genre scholar who Oliver was lucky enough to meet through his research for the novel, and he'd love for you to meet her too! Oliver and Cora discuss her falling in love with the very American body of work known as pulp fiction while she grew up travelling the world, the survival of dime novels in modern Germany, the irresistible pull of forbidden fiction, Thundarr and He-Man, "the best thing that happened in Germany in 1989", European sword and sorcery comics, a book store that "must have been designed by time-lords", mediocre movie tie-in fiction, the potential future of sword & sorcery, how S&S heroes are usually outsides who aren't chosen ones - they choose themselves, marginalized characters and identity, the "token Irishman in space", how people often miss that Grey Mouser isn't white..., the whitening of S&S heroes of color in the cover art, "he's not black, it's solar rays!", a trans sword and sorcery protagonist and other characters we'd like to see, the historical precedent for trans S&S protagonists, how The Witcher has many stories which qualify as sword & sorcery, She-Ra as sword and sorcery, the Lancer Conans and the last time sword & sorcery had a big revival, Grimdark, Brian Sanderson, short & sweet sword & sorcery as an alternative to bloated epic fantasy tales, mosaic and fix-up novels, Lin Carter should get his due as an editor, Cora's intriguing character Richard Blakemore aka The Silencer, The Shadow with Alex Baldwin, writing two novels a month (!), the Lester Dent pulp writing formula, Batman: The Animates Series and The Grey Ghost, how the pulps brought us Batman (and superheroes in general), how Batman (1989) stole its plot from a Spider novel published in 1934, writing a story written by a character you created, keeping your history straight while also having fun when writing a period protagonist, writing a pulp character who falls in love with his own genre, putting more modern storytelling elements in tales framed as having been written long ago, sexual violence and censorship in the old pulps, C.L. Moore writing about sex and drugs as an UNMARRIED woman (!) in the 1930s, weighing creative impulses against what a genre suggests should happen, Galactic Journey, winking at the present when your writing from the perspective of the past, linguistics and writing, THE HORRIBLE TRUTH ABOUT CANADIANS AND THEIR BILINGUALISM, advice on self-publishing, looking outside the Amazon ecosystem, selling literature like ham at a deli, and what makes "a Cora Buhlert story". Cora's Author Page Her self-publishing imprint, Pegasus Pulp Books Cora on Twitter as @corabuhlert The Sword & Sorcery round table discussion Oliver mentions Flame and Crimson: A History of Sword-and-Sorcery by Brian Murphy Galactic Journey Interested in those European sword & sorcery comics Cora mentioned? After the interview she provided me with the following list: - Aria by Michel Weyland from Belgium: Aria is a warrior woman with a very 1970s haircut who fights evil and also winds up adopting a little girl. Started in 1979 and is still going on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aria_(Belgian_comic) Not to be confused with the Image comic of the same name. - Storm, art by Don Lawrence, writted by Dick Matena, Martn Lodwijk and others including Roy Thomas, from the Netherlands: This is actually sword and planet, but it might as well be sword and sorcery. The titular hero is an astronaut who gets lost in time and winds up in a post-apocalyotic Barbarian future and hooks up with a local warrior woman whom I know as Roodhaar (Redhair), but who's apparently called Ember in English language editions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storm_(Don_Lawrence) Started in 1977 and is also still ongoing. - Thorgal by Jean Van Hamme and Grzegorz Rosinski, also from Belgium. This is basically the Viking Superman, a humanoid alien raised and found by Vikings. Thorgal is also a family man and has a wife and several children. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorgal Started in 1979 and is still ongoing as well. - Alix by Jacques Martin, also from Belgium: This is more historical than S&S, but the aesthetics are similar. Alix is a young Gaul sold into slavery, who winds up being adopted by a Roman Patrician and is perpetually torn between Rome and Gaul. This is basically a serious version of Asterix. Started way back in 1948 and still has new adventures coming out, though Jacques Martin has passed away by now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Alix - Ghita of Alizarr by Frank Thorne. This one is actually American, though I first encountered it in Dutch translation. This was Frank Thorne going further than the Comics Code allowed him to do with Red Sonja. Early Franco-Belgian-Dutch comics can be very prudish, but by the late 1970s no one cared about bare breasts and vague sex scene, so it wound up on the same shelf as the others. Started in 1978. https://comicvine.gamespot.com/ghita-of-alizarr/4005-1348/ - Eric de Noorman (Eric the Norseman) by Hans G. Kresse from the Netherlands: Eric is a Viking who has fantastic adventures. He's also a family man and has a wife and a son. I encountered it via reprint collections. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_de_Noorman - De Rode Ridder (The Red Knight) by Willy Vandersteen and others, also from Belgium. Johan is a wandering knight who has adventures, many of which are supernatural. Started in 1946 and is still ongoing as well, though Vandersteen passed away around the time I discovered the series. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Rode_Ridder www.soimwritinganovel.com PATREON: www.patreon.com/soimwritinganovel BUY OLIVER'S BOOKS: https://www.oliverbrackenbury.com/store SO I'M WRITING A NOVEL...

Seth needed a break from reading, so for this episode, we watched the 2021 Netflix film Stowaway and compared it to “The Cold Equations.” We also mentioned Cora Buhlert’s excellent response to the classic story, “The Cold Crowdfunding Campaign.” Highly recommended.

All the children danced in the street! "It's here! It's here!" they cried! "The seventh episode of Stars End is here!!" It's true! Our seventh episode, "Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing a podcast" is now available! Even though we had some technical difficulties (our sound quality isn't up to our usual standards; our apologies) it's a great episode! It's great in part because it's different! We're honored to welcome Cora Buhlert as our first guest on the podcast! Instead of talking about Foundation, we'll talk to someone else about Foundation. Also, science fiction in general, becoming an SF fan as a kid, Hugo Awards and a bunch of other stuff. Cora is an amazingly prolific and eclectic writer. So prolific that Jon joked about her owning "Asimov's Typewriter" and we suddenly had a new imaginary episode of Warehouse 13 in our heads. So eclectic that no matter your tastes there's a good chance that she's written something that you'd enjoy. If you like stories about galactic empires like Foundation, she's written two full series you might like, In Love and War and Shattered Empire. She's also a two-time Hugo Finalist for Best Fan Writer. I could go on and we do in the Episode. She was an excellent first guest and you can learn more about her at corabuhlert.com. The episode is also great because it's the same! We have new installments of our two regular features, the "Apple TV+ Minute" and "Asimov Trivia.: In the Trivia segment, we explore Asimov and Comic Books while in the Apple TV minute we react to the new trailer which you can watch along "with" us at our website, https://starsendpodcast.wordpress.com/!
