We discuss Part One, Chapters 1-11 of Eric Redman's new Hawaiian Noir novel, Death in Hilo. Kawika Wong is in the prime of his career, leading the homicide squad at the Honolulu Police Department, but it all could come crumbling down when a criminal he put away a decade ago begins hinting towards the truth of a case Kawika thought he had put behind him. With a serial killer on the streets, and the bones of an old case peeking above the ground, Kawika's duties are torn. But he can't see everything we can... We also speak with Australian fantasy author Garth Nix about authority, suspense, and the lessons he's learned from crime fiction. Thank you to the University of Hawaii, Pineapple Tweed, and Crooked Lane for providing copies of 'Death in Hilo' and arranging for us to speak with Eric Redman. Thank you to Sydney Writers' Festival and Allen & Unwin for arranging our time with Garth Nix.

And remember: nothing says fell necromancy like a lightning farm.EPISODE MEDIAOur other Old Kingdom and Garth Nix episodes:Sabriel (very first episode of the podcast, listen at your own risk)Sabriel (Redux)LiraelThe RagwitchMister MondaySabriel concept art by Josh WongMUSIC - Pippin the Hunchback and Thatched Villagers by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) - Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

This week the dragons are delighted to welcome Olivia Atwater - author of Half a Soul and Small Miracles - to the show. Olivia's fantasy novels cross several genre lines and magic systems play a strong role in the stories, which makes her the perfect person to join this episode's discussion.  Magic systems in fantasy have evolved a long way since the advent of recording traditional folk tales in writing and the dawn of modern epic fantasy. There are now a variety of different types of systems which broadly fall within the hard (defined) and soft (nebulous) categories. In fact many fantasy novels employ a combination or even both at once, so does it matter which you use? What does the magic system add to the story and how do you shape it for best effect?  Under the microscope this week: The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien, The Old Kingdom series - Garth Nix, Small Miracles - Olivia Atwater and many more.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

This is a goofy one because we're just so delighted to be here - thanks to you all for your support over these last 6 years!There are a few minor audio issues in the first half of the episode where Grace's audio is briefly lower quality, sorry about that!MUSIC - Pippin the Hunchback and Thatched Villagers by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) - Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
