Recorded December 17, 2022 This week, Nate and Ryan summarize their previous year. It was a rich, full year with a lot of different experiences. In their look back, they remember all the good things that stood out. Then, as it seems like a tradition at this point, Ryan had Nate read the next book in the Mistborn series. This time it was The Bands of Mourning. In their discussion, they talk about the evolution of characters, where to hide your mystical artifacts, and proper itemized lists of possible destruction.

the galaxy and the ground within van Becky Chambers, met Savitri van der Velden In deze aflevering duiken we de ruimte in, met het laatste deel van de heerlijke queer sci-fi reeks The Wayfarers. In dit vierde deel van de serie, the galaxy and the ground within, bescrijft Becky Chambers de avonturen van een groep aliens die vast komen te zitten op een onbeduidende planeet. Onze eigen Savitri, winkelmanager bij Savannah Bay, is te gast om te vertellen over haar liefde voor sci-fi in het algemeen en Backy Chambers in het bijzonder. Wil je meekletsen met Lola en Suzanne? Laat het ons weten op Instagram, Twitter en Facebook en gebruik #RadioSavannah. Voor (lees)tips en fanmail zijn we ook te bereiken op info@savannahbay.nl.  Tijdens de aflevering verwijzen we naar twee artikelen over Becky Chambers. Het interview van Emily VanDerWerff op Vox vind je hier, het interview van jason Kehe voor Wire vind je hier.  With no water, no air, and no native life, the planet Gora is unremarkable. The only thing it has going for it is a chance proximity to more popular worlds, making it a decent stopover for ships traveling between the wormholes that keep the Galactic Commons connected. If deep space is a highway, Gora is just your average truck stop.At the Five-Hop One-Stop, long-haul spacers can stretch their legs (if they have legs, that is), and get fuel, transit permits, and assorted supplies. The Five-Hop is run by an enterprising alien and her sometimes helpful child, who work hard to provide a little piece of home to everyone passing through.When a freak technological failure halts all traffic to and from Gora, three strangers—all different species with different aims—are thrown together at the Five-Hop. Grounded, with nothing to do but wait, the trio—an exiled artist with an appointment to keep, a cargo runner at a personal crossroads, and a mysterious individual doing her best to help those on the fringes—are compelled to confront where they've been, where they might go, and what they are, or could be, to each other.Vind het boek hier in onze webshop.

It’s a book in which nothing much happens, just a bunch of aliens sitting around waiting for the sky to clear. And yet Becky Chambers works her magic on it, and makes it memorable and moving. What a magic trick. Jason Snell.

One trip and one story can change your life, as author Ciannon Smart showed us in this episode. Listen to how her trip to Rose Hall in Jamaica stuck with her for a decade, how she embraced her weird kid energy to learn about vampires and witches, and how it evolved into her debut novel!    Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about or mentions of slavery, murder, religious persecution, military/war, racism, and panic attacks.    Guest Of Jamaican heritage, Ciannon Smart grew up in a small town in the south-east of England. As the only daughter in a house full of boisterous sons, she developed a voracious appetite for reading from an early age, preferring anarchy in stories rather than real life. In YA she loves her heroines exactly as she loves her villains: wilful, wily, and unpredictable. When not writing, Ciannon can be found reading, painting, or taking the long way home to listen to a good song more than once. Her debut novel, Witches Steeped in Gold, is now available.    Housekeeping - Recommendation: This week, Julia recommends The Galaxy, and the Ground Within by Becky Chambers. - Books: Check out our previous book recommendations, guests’ books, and more at spiritspodcast.com/books - Call to Action: Check out our previous virtual live shows, and information about our future virtual live events at multitude.productions/live.    Sponsors - Calm is the #1 app to help you reduce your anxiety and stress and help you sleep better.

Sunday Times best-selling author Becky Chambers returns to the Galactic Commons in the final instalment in her award-winning and critically acclaimed Wayfarers series. With no water, no air and no native life, the planet Gora is unremarkable. The only thing it has going for it is a chance proximity to more popular worlds, making it a decent stopover for ships travelling between the wormholes that keep the Galactic Commons connected. If deep space is a highway, Gora is just your average truck stop. One of the many establishments present is the Five-Hop One-Stop, a place where long-haul spacers can stretch their legs (if they have legs, that is) and pick up fuel, transit permits and assorted supplies. The Five-Hop is run by an enterprising alien and her occasionally helpful child, who both work hard to provide a little piece of home to everyone passing through. When a freak technological failure halts traffic to and from Gora, three strangers are thrown together at the Five-Hop. Grounded and with nothing to do but wait, the trio - an exiled artist with an appointment to keep, a cargo runner at a personal crossroads and a mysterious individual doing her best to help those on the fringes - are compelled to confront where they've been, where they might go and what they might be to each other.

After at least a decade, 2020 is over! With a little luck, 2021 will be a better and brighter year for all of us. If nothing else, there are certainly a lot of great books to look forward to!
