Podcast appearances and mentions of Guy Gavriel Kay

This week we are joined by an old friend of the podcast, the distinguished Canadian novelist Guy Gavriel Kay, whose wonderful new novel Written on the Dark is out this month. As always, we not only touch upon some details of the novel— which takes place in Kay's own version of an alternate 15th century France, featuring a Parisian tavern poet loosely based on the historical François Villon—but on the perennial question of Kay's unique mix of history, fiction, and the fantastic. This leads to a broader discussion of his fiction, the role of art and artists in his work, how fictional events from centuries ago can still resonate with events today, and even a bit on what it means to be a Canadian writer. Guy is as wise and articulate as always, and we never fail to learn valuable insights that leave us with much to ponder. Previously on Coode Street...

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. Just listen to our episode.The article on Tolkien and Aldo Leopold is Lucas Niiler's 1999 piece “Green Reading: Tolkien, Leopold and the Land Ethic.”Who wouldn't love the Glittering Caves? (And indeed, check out our dwarves episode as well as our Ghân-Buri-Ghân episode.)Colonialism/imperialism and environmental destruction? Who could guess there'd be a connection. (Enjoy this book for some other light reading.)Very light, but this piece on Roman ruins in the present day helps underscore this sense of persistence into the present Tolkien captures well. (In contrast, the Duwamish have had to fight erasure.)If you want to go to Three Rivers, learn a little more about it.A 2015 Vox piece on the invention and criminalization of jaywalking.Peter Jackson's vision of Isengard as industrial hellhole. (The tree being flung down is at 1:20.)Earthsea is always a vibe but as Jared notes, check out Annals of the Western Shore.A Thousand Thousand Islands is indeed no longer going, sadly, but you can get a taste of it here.Guy Gavriel Kay's had quite the career!And indeed some younger authors to check out who aren't doing Europe all over again include R. F. Kuang and Tasha Suri.Fonda Lee has the Green Bone Saga to check out, aka the ‘Jade' series.And indeed the fan film Born of Hope about Arathorn is on YouTube!Support us and our network on Patreon and you can join us to talk Tolkien (and more!) in our friendly Discord.

durée : 00:58:45 - Les Cours du Collège de France - De quelle façon l'opéra "Tannhäuser" de Wagner a-t-il servi de matrice à bon nombre d'ouvres ultérieures du compositeur? Quel rôle joue le "Silmarillion" dans l'élaboration de l'ouvre de Tolkien? Pierre-Michel Menger poursuit son analyse des oeuvres matricielles et des projets au long cours. Pierre-Michel Menger note que "L'ouvre The Silmarillion qui a servi d'atelier ou de matrice à la production des matériaux romanesques des deux romans les plus célèbres de John Ronald Reuel Tolkien n'a été publiée qu'après la mort de Tolkien, en 1977, par son fils Christopher avec l'aide de Guy Gavriel Kay. Le roman retrace la genèse et les premiers Âges de l'univers de la Terre du Milieu, qui est le cadre des romans Le Hobbit et Le Seigneur des anneaux." Dès lors, comment Christopher Tolkien a-t-il fouillé et magnifié par un patient et monumental labeur l'atelier de son père ? Pourquoi Baudelaire, avec une "ironie complice", voit-t-il dans la genèse du poème "The Raven" ("Le Corbeau") par son auteur Edgar Poe "un peu de charlatanerie"?Pierre-Michel Menger, titulaire de la chaire de Sociologie du travail créateur, au Collège de France et Directeur d'études à l'EHESS, poursuit sa passionnante enquête, inaugurée en 2019, sous le titre « Comment achever une ouvre ? Travail et processus de création ». Pour la suite de cette grande plongée, dans les ateliers des artistes, dans les processus créateurs, entre "contrôle et incertitude", "décision et indécision", il nous propose des études de cas. Dans le cours précédent, il a ouvert la question des ouvres matricielles, notamment, lorsqu'il a abordé la notion de travail au long cours et de vastes entreprises :"Il y a un autre niveau d'organisation du travail, les "entreprises" (affaire, aventure, entreprise). Une "entreprise" est un groupe durable d'activités liées destinées à produire une série de produits apparentés. Une entreprise embrasse un grand nombre de projets. Plus spécifiquement, quand un projet est achevé, de nouvelles possibilités émergent, à exploiter maintenant ou plus tard. Finir un projet conduit rarement à un état de repos; il déclenche plutôt du travail ultérieur, comme si l'achèvement fournissait l'élan pour continuer. Ainsi chaque entreprise assure une fonction de tremplin pour les projets suivants". "D'un projet à l'autre, poursuit Pierre-Michel Menger, des éléments ou des procédés sont réemployés. Des ouvres d'ambition considérables qui demeurent inachevées peuvent constituer de véritables matrices dont dérive la production d'ouvres particulières. Les ouvres que leurs auteurs jugent inachevées et qui les hantent ont tellement de liens avec les ouvres qui suivent que l'on peut se prendre à analyser l'ensemble complet comme s'il s'agissait d'une création hypertexte. Les multiples révisions, ramifications et bifurcations le long desquelles évolue un travail créateur sont bien la signature d'un parcours incertain (un sorte de squelette pour un processus qui est tout de même orienté dans une certaine direction), mais aussi le support d'un vaste processus d'apprentissage."Le cours précédent s'est achevé sur "le cas fameux de la Porte de l'Enfer de Rodin, glorieux inachèvement, qui occupe une place tout à fait particulière dans la production de Rodin". Aujourd'hui, Pierre Michel Menger nous plonge dans les ateliers du musicien Richard Wagner et des écrivains John Ronald Reuel Tolkien et Edgar Allan Poe.Nous gagnons le Collège de France, le 19 mars 2021, pour le cours de Pierre Michel Menger, aujourd'hui "Raréfaction, consolidation, augmentation - l'ouvre et sa « biographie » au prisme de l'édition (partie 1), de Wagner à Tolkien"Pour prolonger : La Leçon inaugurale de Pierre-Michel Menger a été publiée chez Fayard en 2014 et en édition électronique, sous le titre, La différence, la concurrence et la disproportion : sociologie du travail créateur. La même année a été éditée en poche en Points Seuil,son ouvrage, Le travail créateur : s'accomplir dans l'incertain__. Il a également di

In this episode Calvin reviews Guy Gavriel Kay's ALL THE SEAS OF THE WORLD. Then he goes on to talk about what reading is on deck for him (THE HOURGLASS THRONE by K.D. Edwards) and a book that dropped kinda outta the blue that is part of a series he's enjoyed (MOTHER OF LEARNING). He closes out this episode with some thoughts on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and Obi-Wan Kenobi (no spoilers!).

Returning to the near-Renaissance world of A Brightness Long Ago and Children of Earth and Sky, international best-selling author Guy Gavriel Kay deploys his signature 'quarter turn to the fantastic' to tell a story of vengeance, power and love. On a dark night along a lonely stretch of coast, a small ship, the Silver Wake, sends two people ashore to a stony strand. Their purpose is assassination. They have been hired to do this by two of the most dangerous men alive. The consequences will affect so many lives both great and small, and possibly alter the balance of power in the world. One of those arriving on that night strand is a woman abducted by corsairs from her home as a child, escaping that fate, that destiny, years after, now trying to chart her own course—and bent upon revenge. Another figure, on the boat, bringing it to meet the secretive landing party at the city where they are going, is a merchant who still remembers being exiled as a child with his family from their home, for their faith. Returning triumphantly to the brilliantly evoked near-Renaissance world of his most recent novels, international best-selling author Guy Gavriel Kay deploys his signature 'quarter turn to the fantastic' to offer listeners a wide-ranging, vividly memorable set of characters in a story of vengeance, power and love, built around profoundly contemporary themes of exile, loss and memory. In a narrative of high drama, All the Seas of the World also offers moving reflections on choices, fate and the random events that can shape our lives.

He's one of the most successful and multiple award-winning authors alive today. He worked with Christopher Tolkien on “The Silmarillion,” has published fourteen novels and a book of poetry, and his combined works have been translated into thirty languages worldwide. He was also named to the Order of Canada, the country's highest civilian honor.He has a true love of literature… and like a good Canadian… hockey.

With Gary just back from ICFA in Florida, he discussed whether this will really be the year of re-emergence, with both the World Science Fiction Convention in Chicago and World Fantasy Convention in New Orleans in the offing. This led, as it does, to discussion of the Hugos, whether small categories with few nominations should be dropped, whether other categories should be added, and whether major historical studies such as Mike Ashley's five-volume The History of the Science-Fiction Magazines really have a chance of being seen because of availability issues, as compared to the increasingly broad definition of “related work.” Inevitably, we chatted about new or forthcoming books we're excited about. We both liked Guy Gavriel Kay's All the Seas of the World, Alix E. Harrow's A Mirror Mended, and Christopher Rowe's These Prisoning Hills, while Jonathan is tempted by Karen Joy Fowler's new novel Booth and Gary's about to start Samit Basu's The City Inside.  Of course, there are lots of digressions in between, including the nature of historical fiction and nostalgia for printed books in the age of e-books (at least for reviewers and critics).

After reminding listeners that the deadline for Hugo nominations is fast approaching on March 15 (and reminding them once again of the eligibility of this podcast for Best Fancast and of Jonathan for Best Editor, Short Form), we move on to the much-discussed, record-setting Brandon Sanderson Kickstarter, and the question of whether it really matters to anyone other than Sanderson and his readers. Acknowledging that Sanderson readers are fully likely to get exactly what they are expecting, this led us into a brief discussion of reader expectations, also the topic of a recent essay by Molly Templeton on Tor.com. While occasionally we come across a book with almost no prior knowledge or publicity, most books come with expectations based on the author's previous work, or even the publisher's reputation. Some of the authors discussed here, and some that Jonathan and Gary are currently reading or expecting to read, include Guy Gavriel Kay, R.F. Kuang, Kelly Barnhill, Nghi Vo, John Crowley, and Karen Joy Fowler. At the end, we touch briefly upon the question of history in fiction, and the different strategies of using entirely fictional characters, almost entirely historical figures, or a mixture of both.

Bill recently weighed in on the U.S. Department of Commerce's decision to place Esquel, a leading textile manufacturer headquartered in Hong Kong, on its entity list of companies alleged to be using forced labor from Xinjiang, lamenting that “it's quite possible that the U.S. government has imposed sanctions on the world's most socially responsible company and one that has been particularly beneficial to the Uyghurs.” Bill also discusses recent essays on other problems in American China policy.7:17: First impressions of Esquel, its technology, and its working conditions for Uyghurs21:47: Targeted sanctions vs. blanket sanctions35:06: Lack of China expertise in the highest ranks of the Biden administration's foreign policy team44:43: Why the United States should return to an economic strategyA transcript of this episode is available on SupChina.com.Recommendations:Bill: Newsletters and podcasts from SupChina; articles from The Wire China; and the article “The Chinese Debt Trap is a Myth” published in The Atlantic, by Deborah Brautigam and Meg Rithmire.Kaiser: The novel The Lions of al-Rassan, by Guy Gavriel Kay.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Fiona McIntosh is an absolute master of her craft. She’s just released her 39th book, The Champagne War, and has written across genres of historical fiction, crime, fantasy and non-fiction. Fiona teaches writing in hugely sought after workshops and would be at peak happiness sipping coffee in Paris, eating dark chocolate after buying a pair of fashionable winter boots. In this episode, we talk about what makes great historical fiction, Fiona’s start as a fantasy writer, the joys of surprise meetings during research trips, and the dreaded ‘R’ word in genre fiction… romance. During the show Fiona recommends Sharon Penman for ‘brilliant’ historical fiction. She also recommends Ken Follet for historical fiction with pace and human connection, plus Guy Gavriel Kay who weaves real-world events from ancient history into his fantasy.

Dustin Plantholt’s “Life’s Tough—You Can Be Tougher” podcast this week features Ben Kane, bestselling novelist, specializing in historical fiction. He is best known for The Forgotten Legion, Spartacus and Hannibalbook series. Eleven of his thirteen novels have been Sunday Times bestsellers, and his books have been published in thirteen countries, including the US, Italy, Spain, Poland, Germany, Russia and the Netherlands. Ben Kane was born in Nairobi, Kenya—as his dad worked there as a veterinarian—and moved to Ireland with his family at age seven. As a child, he loved to read—especially historical works—that included medieval tales, Sherlock Holmes stories, and fantasy novels from JRR Tolkien to Guy Gavriel Kay to Stephen Donaldson. In his early adulthood, and as a genuine animal lover (and following in his dad’s footsteps), he studied veterinary medicine at University College Dublin. In 1996, after 5 years of college, a career as a veterinarian began. Soon after, his love of history took him abroad as he set off on a 3-month solo trip along part of the ancient Silk Road. Visiting the ruins of Merv, in Turkmenistan, it sparked his interest in ancient Roman history. Shortly after returning, he felt the urge to travel again, and in 1998—indulging his passion for ancient history—he set out on a trip around the world which lasted for nearly 3 years. It was during this prolonged time abroad that he first had thoughts of writing military historical fiction and having a career apart from being a veterinarian. What started as a hobby soon became an obsession, and about four years later The Forgotten Legion emerged into the light. Through hard work and perseverance, and with the help of his dedicated agent, Charlie Viney, a book deal was secured in the summer of 2007. That started a burgeoning writing career and a new chapter in Ben’s life. In 2013, for an honorable charitable cause, Kane and two author friends walked the entire length (84 miles) of Hadrian’s Wall—Britain’s largest Roman archaeological feature and one of its major ancient tourist attractions—while wearing full Roman military outfits, including hobnailed boots. They raised nearly £19,000 for Combat Stress and Medecins Sans Frontieres. In 2014, they walked again in Italy, raising over £26,500. A documentary film was made about their walk, titled The Road to Rome, with Ian McKellen narrating. Since 2014, Kane has continued to raise money for charitable causes. To date, he has raised more than $130,000. Having visited nearly 70 countries and all seven continents, he now lives in Somerset, England with his wife and children. Join Dustin and Ben for an enlightening conversation and hear how Ben’s passion for history led him to a career as an acclaimed author.

Suite et fin de notre grosse émission sur cet homme qui représente à la fois l’humour britannique, l’imagination et une idée certaine de la justice. En toute logique, on termine ici la grosse séquence dédiée au Disque-Monde, non sans oublier d’évoquer les adaptations et nombreuses autres manifestation du cycle culte, ainsi que les autres personnalités qui ont contribué à le forger. Après quoi on revient sur tous les autres oeuvres et aventures de la vie perso du bon vieux Terrence, mais aussi sur ses engagements et sur ce qu’il nous a laissé.

Par la suite, même s'il y a quelques révélations côté coulisses, c'est une succession de petites anecdotes plutôt cools et des réflexions de l'auteur, Craig Cabell (qui connaissait un peu Terry, manifestement). Mais on ne peut pas dire que j'ai trouvé ces dernières très intéressantes. Je regrette pas mal qu'il en fasse des caisses sur Tiphaine Patraque, et qu'il ne dise quasiment rien sur le Guet, par exemple.  Si vous êtes fan et que vous lisez l'anglais, ça ne vous prendra pas bien longtemps, le bouquin ne faisant que 250 pages. Mais autant écouter le podcast ! Bien plus utile et bien plus enrichissant, Lapsus Clavis est peut-être le concentré de Pratchettisme le plus complet du moment. (En attendant une biographie, officielle ou non, qui arrivera bien un jour où l’autre.) C’est la compilation de tous les articles et éditoriaux écrits par l’auteur et des discours qu’il a donné à l’occasion d’événements divers. Que le sujet soit sa vie personnelle, son œuvre ou ses engagements, c’est toujours passionnant. Le dernier tiers est essentiellement composé de textes sur son combat (notamment médiatique) contre Alzheimer. Ce n’est pas toujours facile à lire, mais c’est vibrant. C’est dispo aux Éditions L'Atalante. Chez le même éditeur et du même auteur, L’Art du Disque-Monde (magistralement illustré par Paul Kidby) et le recueil de nouvelles Fond d’écran proposent un certain nombre d’anecdotes et de réflexions intéressantes à découvrir.

There comes in every writer's path to world domination a time for panel moderation. Our intrepid Mad Writers are fair newbies themselves in the big, bad world of conventions and none of them have ever moderated a panel, so they decided to call in some expert assistance in the form of Steven H. Silver. Currently the Events Director at SFWA, Steven has also been an author, editor, Chicon 2000 programs director, and a Jeopardy contestant. The Mad Writers grill Steven on the various aspects of being a good panelist and a good moderator.Notable notesUse the microphone Sharing is caring Prepare Do not get on a panel to say "I don't know why I'm on this panel" Seriously, be kind "The Art of the Con"You can find Steven online at: SF News and his website.Recommended reading Steven's recommendation: Children of Earth and Sky by Guy Gavriel Kay   Tim's recommendation: Player Piano: A Novel by Kurt Vonnegut   Jay's recommendation: Downbelow Station (Alliance-Union Universe) by C.J.

Bestselling fantasy fiction author Guy Gavriel Kay shares his insights about the writing life during the Margaret Laurence Lecture. Kay eschewed an autobiographical approach in his talk about his writing life, arguing instead that the value of a writer’s life lies in the words they give us, not the life they lead. The lecture was recorded in his hometown of Winnipeg at the Eckhardt Grametté Hall in 2015.

Guy Gavriel Kay discusses his new novel Children of Earth and Sky.

Welcome to the fifth episode of The Coode Street Roundtable. The Roundtable is a monthly podcast from Coode Street Productions where panelists James Bradley, Ian Mond, and Jonathan Strahan, joined by occasional special guests, discuss a new or recently released science fiction or fantasy novel. Guy Gavriel Kay's Children of Earth and Sky This month we discuss Children of Earth and Sky, the latest novel from Guy Gavriel Kay. It's a rich, powerful historical fantasy described by its publisher as follows: From the small coastal town of Senjan, notorious for its pirates, a young woman sets out to find vengeance for her lost family. That same spring, from the wealthy city-state of Seressa, famous for its canals and lagoon, come two very different people: a young artist travelling to the dangerous east to paint the grand khalif at his request--and possibly to do more--and a fiercely intelligent, angry woman, posing as a doctor's wife, but sent by Seressa as a spy. The trading ship that carries them is commanded by the accomplished younger son of a merchant family, ambivalent about the life he's been born to live. And further east, a boy trains to become a soldier in the elite infantry of the khalif--to win glory in the war everyone knows is coming. As these lives entwine, their fates--and those of many others -- will hang in the balance, when the khalif sends his massive army to take the great fortress that is the gateway to the western world... If you're keen to avoid spoilers, we recommend reading the book before listening to the episode. If you don't already have a copy, Children of Earth and Sky can be ordered from: amazon.com amazon.com.au amazon.co.uk We encourage all of our listeners to leave comments here and we will do our best to respond as soon as possible. Next monthThe Coode Street Roundtable will return at the end of June with a discussion of Madeline Ashby's Company Town.

The is the full version of the interview that Guy and Cheryl did for Ujima Radio. The broadcast version was cut down by about 50%. The discussion is primarily about Guy's latest novel, Children of Earth and Sky, but touches on aspects of his other work as well.

Welcome to the fourth episode of The Coode Street Roundtable. The Roundtable is a monthly podcast from Coode Street Productions where panelists James Bradley, Ian Mond, and Jonathan Strahan, joined by occasional special guests, discuss a new or recently released science fiction or fantasy novel. Paul McAuley's Into Everywhere This month Coode Street co-host Gary Wolfe joins us to discuss Into Everwhere, the latest novel from Paul McAuley. It's smart, engaging hard SF adventure described by its publisher as follows: The Jackaroo, those enigmatic aliens who claim to have come to help, gave humanity access to worlds littered with ruins and scraps of technology left by long-dead client races. But although people have found new uses for alien technology, that technology may have found its own uses for people.  The dissolute scion of a powerful merchant family, and a woman living in seclusion with only her dog and her demons for company, have become infected by a copies of a powerful chunk of alien code. Driven to discover what it wants from them, they become caught up in a conflict between a policeman allied to the Jackaroo and the laminated brain of a scientific wizard, and a mystery that spans light years and centuries. Humanity is about to discover why the Jackaroo came to help us, and how that help is shaping the end of human history. If you're keen to avoid spoilers, we recommend reading the book before listening to the episode. If you don't already have a copy, Into Everywhere can be ordered from: amazon.com amazon.com.au amazon.co.uk We encourage all of our listeners to leave comments here and we will do our best to respond as soon as possible. Correction During the podcast Jonathan incorrectly says Paul McAuley's next novel, Austral, is due in late 2016. It's actually due in late 2017. Our apologies for any confusion this may have caused. Next month The Coode Street Roundtable will return at the end of May with a discussion of Guy Gavriel Kay's Children of Earth and Sky.

More than two years ago, at the 2012 World Fantasy Convention in Toronto, Ontario, Gary and Jonathan sat down with Guy Gavriel Kay to discuss his then new novel River of Stars.  A now legendary discussion followed, that quickly became mythical when technical issues resulted in that recording and several others being permanently lost. In an attempt to redress the loss of that earlier conversation, Guy agreed to join Jonathan and Gary for the discussion that follows while they were all in Washington DC for the 2014 World Fantasy Convention.   As always, we would like to thank Guy for his patience and for being part of the podcast. It is greatly appreciated. We hope you all enjoy the episode and will be back next week!

Suddenly our intrepid heroes, still mostly living on vacation time,realised that they needed to put out another episode of the podcast. Plans for a leisurely hiatus were abandoned and, somewhat the worse for New Year wear, they sat down in front of their microphones, and began to ramble.  This week's discussion starts with a look at some end of the year comments made by Locus Online short fiction reviewer Lois Tilton, which had Jonathan nodding his head in some agreement, and wandered on to his vague thoughts on genre cohesiveness (or something) and ended with thought from Gary on who will we remember this year from the Class of 1915 (or something). All in all, a typical Coode Street. Next week, finally as promised, Guy Gavriel Kay! As always we hope you enjoy the episode, and will see you next week!

The third of our short series of podcasts recorded at the World Fantasy Convention in Washington DC, this one features a particularly laughter-filled conversation with award-winning writers and editors, and long-time friends and collaborators, Jack Dann and Gardner Dozois. While it's been long enough since the podcast was recorded that we're not sure any of it made sense, we do know it was a lot of fun to record. We hope it's a lot of fun to listen to. As always, our sincere thanks to Jack and Gardner for making the time to talk to us, and our thanks to you for listening.  We hope you're all either enjoying a well-earned holiday over the Festive Season, or finding a way to enjoy yourself if you have to work through it, and that we see you safe and well when we're back recording live in a couple weeks.  Next week: Guy Gavriel Kay.

This week Gary and Jonathan are joined in the Waldorf Room by the fabulous Cecelia Holland, leading historical novelist and author of Floating Worlds among many, many other fine books, to discuss writing, fantasy, and historical fiction. The podcast features a close to spoiler free  discussion of River of Stars, the excellent new novel from Guy Gavriel Kay which is due out in April.  We'd also like to point out that there will be detailed reviews of  f River of Stars from both Gary and Cecelia in the April issue of Locus. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast!

This week the Coode Street team headed back to the Waldorf Room high in the Coode Street Motel Six to discuss the annual Locus Year in Review issue, the publishing industry, and other matters.  We also briefly discuss two forthcoming novels, Guy Gavriel Kay's River of Stars and Charles Stross's Neptune's Brood. The Locus Recommended Reading List is online, as is the annual Locus Poll and a list of links to recommended short fiction.  As discussed during the episode, both Gary Wolfe and Jonathan Strahan work for Locus and were actively involved in compiling the recommended reading list.  You can subscribe to Locus here. The Year in Review issue is available as the start of a subscription or as a stand-alone issue. As always, we hope you enjoy the podcast!

And now the podcast that technology did not want you to hear! When the Coode Street team traveled to Toronto, Canada for the 2012 World Fantasy Convention we planned and recorded a series of podcasts that have become known as the Great Lost Coode St Podcasts. Five podcasts cruelly wiped by idiosyncratic technology (and definitely not incompetent users) featuring Jo Walton, Guy Gavriel Kay, Robert Shearman & Ellen Klages, James Blaylock & Tim Powers, and Graham Joyce. This week Graham Joyce incredibly kindly agreed to try again, to join us via Skype and have an entirely new conversation about fiction, fairy tale and much, much more.  And five minutes into recording Skype, for the first time in 124 podcasts, crashed.  Ignoring all of the signals from the universe that this podcast was not meant to happen, we pushed forward and despite a slightly tinny connection and the accidental return of the dreaded stereo, ended up with a conversation that we think totally rewarded our persistence. We hope you'll agree. Our sincere thanks to Graham Joyce who persisted despite our incompetence and was exceediingly kind and generous with his time.

"I'm telling myself you bloody well better figure out where this is going because you have to start heading there sometime around now."
