For this bookling we began the excellent Green Bone Saga by Fonda Lee with it’s first book: Jade City. This kung fu inspired urban fantasy has great worldbuilding, characters (loveable and hateable) and an extremely cool magic system.

Welcome to another Mining Media where we turn your binging into better TTRPG experiences. In this episode we're talking about Fonda Lee's incredible gangster fantasy trilogy The Green Bone Saga. This series is one of *very* few (maybe the only?) that I've rated 5 stars down the line. It has enough magic and urban fantasy to feel wondrous, incredibly emotional character development, intense martial arts action scenes, harsh betrayals, drugs, sex, crime, corruption, generational trauma and expectations... I could go on and on forever - please read it and talk to me about it!   Anyway, the take home points for how to make your TTRPG sessions better with The Green Bone Saga include: Hack your favorite system to use the Jade Disciplines as Stats (along with others for non-Green PCs) Consider using a relationship map/web to constantly keep pressure on your PCs from their connections, making every move dangerous in a faction-based turf war If your setting has magic, include a culture or people who are immune or resistant to that magic - how are they viewed in society? How do they overcome this? When making factions always have allied, antagonistic, and neutral parties to the party's goals. The Penitents & religious folk of these books are very cool, silent monks who are the ears of the gods - give them emotional, cultural depth   In the end, I think this episode was less "here's what to use in your game," and more "PLEASE READ THESE AND LET'S PLAY AN RPG CAMPAIGN IN THIS WORLD TOGETHER." If you're interested, please let me know. And Fonda Lee, if you ever see this and want someone to make your world an RPG, I'll help!   Download Rene's One-Page RPG One Last Quest and bring back your favorite characters for one more mission as elderly versions of themselves!   Where to Follow Rene Plays Games: Instagram | Facebook | Twitter/X | Threads | DMs After Dark email: RenePlaysGamesPod@gmail.com   Music in the Episode: Midnight Room by | e s c p | https://www.escp.space https://escp-music.bandcamp.com

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 17! This is the next installment in our series on ethnic enclaves that have disappeared. Today we're here to talk about The History of the Hawaiian Settlement of Iosepa, Utah. It was predominantly Hawaiian, but there were others from the Pacific Islands as well. Established in 1889 in Skull Valley, Utah, it was a place where Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders were able to gather in a safer, more supportive place that still kept them relatively close to Salt Lake City, Utah and the center of the Church of Latter Day Saints. It's hard to imagine going from the weather in Hawaii to the much harsher conditions of Skull Valley (especially in the summers and winters), but they did it… and they even thrived there for a time, growing the community from 46 to quite a few more. In this episode we share the challenges and triumphs of a community, and what eventually happened to them. To learn more about the area, you can check out the Iosepa Historical Association which is made of supporters and descendants of the original community.  In our recurring segment, we share what we're reading. For Ted it was the award-winning book Troublemaker by John Cho. For Gen it was the award-winning book Jade City, part of the Green Bone Saga by Fonda Lee. Hear our thoughts on these two novels!

Award-winning author Fonda Lee returns to discuss Denis Villeneuve's epic sequel that finishes his Dune adaptation where the Bene Gesserit's plan to engineer a savior comes into center frame. In episode 303, Luke, James, and Fonda discuss what Frank Herbert regretted after the initial release of his landmark novel, the many significant changes to the book and what they mean, the shifting role of Chani, the more villainous Jessica, a fetus-version of Alia, and how Denis is laying the groundwork for DUNE MESSIAH. They finish by casting their votes on which was better: the book or Part One and Part Two combined! 00:00:00 Intro/Non-spoiler 00:33:53 Spoilers 01:35:11 Book or film better?

When you've put your heart, soul, blood, sweat, and tears into building a world -- what happens when you then have to leave it behind? Most SFF authors will, at some point, close up their work in one world and start building a new one, but that comes with its own set of challenges! You know the old world so well; it's become comfy and familiar. The new world still has all its work yet to be done, and while it has the shiny lure of new discoveries, it also may seem daunting to start the process of figuring out how a world works all over again. In this episode, Fonda Lee and Melissa Caruso re-join us to discuss shifting focus from one world to another! Where do you start? How different do you need the world to be? We also chat about not just the mental challenges of clearing out one world to make room for the new one, but the emotional challenge of pulling yourself away from a place you love and know so well! Our Guests:  Melissa Caruso writes books of murder, magic, and mayhem. Her published fantasy novels include the Swords & Fire trilogy (THE TETHERED MAGE, THE DEFIANT HEIR, THE UNBOUND EMPIRE) and the Rooks & Ruin trilogy (THE OBSIDIAN TOWER, THE QUICKSILVER COURT, THE IVORY TOMB), all from Orbit Books. Her debut novel was shortlisted for the Gemmell Morningstar Award in 2017, and her books have received starred reviews and made countless Best Of lists. Melissa is a tea drinker, larper, and mom, and lives in Massachusetts with her video game designer husband, two superlative daughters, and assorted pets. Fonda Lee is the author of the epic fantasy Green Bone Saga, consisting of the novels Jade City, Jade War, and Jade Legacy, along with a prequel novella The Jade Setter of Janloon and a short story collection, Jade Shards. She is also the author of the science fiction novels Zeroboxer, Exo and Cross Fire. Her most recent work is the fantasy novella, Untethered Sky. Fonda is a winner of the World Fantasy Award, the Locus Award, and a five-time winner of the Aurora Award (Canada's national science fiction and fantasy award), as well as a multiple finalist for the Hugo Award, the Nebula Award, and the Oregon Book Award. Her novels have garnered multiple starred reviews and appeared on Best of Year lists from NPR, Barnes & Noble, Syfy Wire, and others. Jade City has been translated in a dozen languages, named to TIME Magazine's Top 100 Fantasy Books of All Time, and optioned for television development. She has also written acclaimed short fiction and been an instructor at writing workshops including Clarion West, Viable Paradise, and Aspen Words. Fonda is a former corporate strategist and black belt martial artist who loves action movies and Eggs Benedict. Born and raised in Canada, she currently resides in the Pacific Northwest.

Battles and smackdowns are a key part of many science fiction and fantasy stories — but how do you do them right? Do you have an obligation to show the cost of violence? And what does a good fight scene look like? To find out, we talked to authors Fonda Lee and Lauren Beukes. (Note: This episode was recorded Sept. 23 at Rose City Comic Con in Portland, OR.)

Please enjoy Robin reading their blog post with some thoughts on ensemble heist stories in fiction. If you'd prefer to read it instead, you can find it here. Refer below for books of the types discussed. ----- Unplanned: THE ART OF SAVING THE WORLD by Corinne Duyvis - Parallel worlds subversion of the "big damn hero" Technically this group is unplanned and they don't already know each other, but on the other hand the group is the same person over and over from different parallel worlds. This leads to a feeling closest to the "unplanned" type. Mastermind: RIVER OF TEETH by Sarah Gailey (its sequel is TASTE OF MARROW)Alternate history with hippo farming in the American South. I recommend getting the duology in the collected volume AMERICAN HIPPO Pre-Assembled: JADE CITY by Fonda Lee (also its sequel JADE WAR, I'll be shocked if this is totally absent from the forthcoming conclusion JADE LEGACY)Lots of people have their own great reasons to steal lots of things in this epic clash between two powerful warring families. If I remember most of them knew each other before they their various thieving escapades, but it's possible that you could argue individual scenes fit "unplanned" or "mastermind" better. FEED, DEADLINE, BLACKOUT, and FEEDBACK by Mira GrantZombies, Politics, and Blogging. DEADLINE is the most thoroughly a heist story but the whole series is worth reading. BENEATH THE CITADEL by Destiny SoriaFantasy story about revolution, loss, and memory. TASTE OF MARROW by Sarah Gailey (sequel to RIVER OF TEETH)Alternate history with hippo farming in the American South. I recommend getting the duology in the collected volume AMERICAN HIPPO CONFESSIONS OF THE FOX by Jordy RosenbergTrans retelling of notorious thieves Jack and Bess. I'm unsure whether this is just the framing or if it's actually retelling an existing story, but either way I loved it.

Hannah and Laura are trying to mend their broken hearts, and they don't know where to start.  Jade Legacy has wrecked them, but they try to work through all their feelings in this discussion of the book, its characters, and themes.  Also, Laura read a very anticipated book that really made her think a lot about internet presence and critiquing books/media.  Hannah was recently on vacation which allowed her more time to read some books she had started but not finished, and also reveals that she is an expert in a very specific topic....the movie Anastasia.Discussion of Jade Legacy begins at 22m36s. CW for this section of the episode: death; racism; violence; guns; drug use; abuse; pregnancy; sexual abuse; blood; suicide; domestic abuse; medicine/medical issues; chronic illness; kidnapping; bombingMedia Mentions:Jade City by Fonda LeeJade War by Fonda LeeJade City by Fonda LeeUntethered Sky by Fonda LeeChildren of Ruin by Adrian TchiakovskyYellowface by R.F.

Jade Legacy has broken Laura and it's made Hannah care about characters she never thought she would.  They cover the second third of Jade Legacy's plot and have an entire range of emotions.

Jared, Oriana and Ned discuss Oriana's choice of topic: land. By default the Middle-earth legendarium is about a place that never was, however rooted in the actual planet we live on, and the range of details from sweeping mountains and vast continents to small roads and fields evident throughout the cycle of stories is a key part of what has made Tolkien's work so vivid and loved. Both The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings are specifically about journeys as the key plotline, where characters move into spaces that they'd only heard about dimly or not at all as they seek to fulfill their aims. That said, there's certainly more than this to how Tolkien considers and situates the geography of his creation, including the in-universe explanations of that creation to start with and Melkor's marring of it. How has Tolkien's grounding of Middle-earth in the feeling of Northern Europe in general shaped perceptions of fantasy worlds since, and what authors and traditions have worked against it? What are the senses of how layers of history have both informed and shaped the land and the peoples who were and are there in the legendarium, and how does that emerge along the way as the stories progress? Have the expectations and experiences of quick and easy travel shaped our reaction to understanding how slow journeys are, especially on foot, as was the case for most of human history? And did the stones of Eregion indeed actually speak?SHOW NOTES.Jared's doodle. And who wouldn't enjoy that view, we ask?The WGA strike is of course still happening. And you should still support it! And the actors too!And indeed, Andy Serkis's The Silmarillion reading is out!So yes, not only did a fan purchase the Magic: The Gathering The One Ring card by lucky chance, following the episode recording he sold it to hardcore MTG fan Post Malone. Truly this is a world we are in.The promo performance of “Now And For Always” from the revival of the LOTR musical is pretty nice! Performances did start soon after the episode recording and an initial Guardian review was quite complimentary. More promo photos are available, and again there's always our episode on the original production…The Rings of Power Emmy nominations. Of course, when the Emmys themselves will happen is another matter.The Society of American Archivists' announcement of William Fliss's award for his continuing work with the Marquette University Tolkien archive.We meant to mention that fellow Megaphonic podcast The Spouter-Inn discussed The Fellowship of the Ring as part of a cluster of books about land, and then had Oriana on as a guest.Much of the Christopher Tolkien-edited History of Middle-earth series is essentially about Tolkien's decades-long process of setting down what Middle-earth actually was. Among the key books in the series in this regard are The Shaping of Middle-earth and Morgoth's Ring.I suspect most of us had our own Oregon Trail experiences.No, we are not going to relitigate the Eagles.

Hannah and Laura are finishing up the plot and discussion on Fonda Lee's book, Jade City, because these books are very long and they underestimated how long it would take to get through them. BUT FIRST: Laura has so many feelings about "Netgalley CEO" Emily Henry's new book and she started a new sci-fi show that's been a lot of fun.

Laura and Hannah have anxiety about romantic leads...and they all seem to be about Hannah's past self! We are discussing lots of romance, sci-fi, and just plain good discussions about old people and their technology! Then we get into Jade City (through the Third Interlude). We have a lot of feelings about Hilo and his actions, and times we are for and times we are against him. Also did you wish Laura a Happy Birthday yesterday?????

Laura loves Illinois (and corn) and talks about it far too much.  Hannah loves being exactly the right temperature (which is around 72 degrees if you were wondering).  Beyond the weather, they talk new Disney+ shows, middle grade and YA books, and really trippy sci-fi thrillers. Then Hannah and Laura dive into more of Fonda Lee's Jade City and reveal that although they still hate one character, they are starting to fall for another one.Media Mentions:Jade City by Fonda LeeJade War by Fonda LeeJade Legacy by Fonda LeeUntethered Sky by Fonda LeeAmerican Born Chinese---Disney+Everything Everywhere All At Once---Paramount+Silo---AppleTVSchmigadoon---AppleTVGarlic and the Witch by Bree PaulsenGarlic and the Vampire by Bree PaulsenBeach Read by Emily HenryCarrie Soto Is Back by Taylor Jenkins ReidSeven Days in June by Tia WilliamsThe Echo Wife by Sarah GaileyAmerican Hippo by Sarah GaileyJust Like Home by Sarah GaileyFiction Fans podcastUpright Women Wanted by Sarah GaileyThis Wicked Fate by Kalynn BayronMagic for Liars by Sarah GaileyXO, Kitty---NetflixTo All the Boys I've Loved Before---NetflixSex and the City---HBOmaxMy Big Fat Greek Wedding---HBOmaxNever Have I Ever---NetflixThe Murderbot Diaries by Martha WellsThe Poppy War trilogy by R.F.

“I've become increasingly cynical about the industry's ability to change itself and how it deals with representation and marginalization.” R.F. Kuang's new novel, Yellowface, tackles cultural appropriation, the challenges of the world of publishing and what it means to be a writer with a wit all her own. Kuang joins us to talk about what lead her to writing this novel, who gets to tell our stories, publishing her first literary fiction novel and more live at Barnes & Noble Union Square with Poured Over host, Miwa Messer. This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang. New episodes land Tuesdays and Thursdays (with occasional Saturdays) here and on your favorite podcast app. Featured Books (Episode): Yellowface by R.F. Kuang Babel by R.F.

Laura's back on her Marvel journey with a new problematic favorite and Hannah loved a book that questioned weird thoughts that many people are guilty of having. Then Hannah and Laura dove into the first third of Fonda Lee's book, Jade City. Buckle up, because this is a long episode! So much exposition! So many characters! So much action!Media Mentions:Jade City by Fonda LeeSmall Miracles by Olivia AtwaterLightfall: The Girl and the Galdurian by Tim ProbertJonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna ClarkePiranesi by Susanna ClarkeThe Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha ShannonStory Darlings podcastFriends Talking Fantasy podcastA Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba BrayDoctor Strange---Disney+Thor Ragnarok---Disney+The Sixth Extinction by Elizabeth KolbertY/N by Esther YiQueer Eye---NetflixThe Poppy War trilogy by R.F.
