Welcome to the 58th Episode of the ABC Pod the Adult Book Club where we drink and we read things. This episode features The Ferryman by Justin Cronin. Spoilers are between the 49 – 1:46 minute marks.

In spoilers we get into the small and big reveals and give our thoughts on how it all came together and how well it was explained. We end with our usual segments and a little too much Johnny Walker. Enjoy!

Lisa discusses The Ferryman, written by Justin Cronin and narrated by Scott Brick & Suzanne Elise Freeman. Thank you to the Libro.fm ALC Program and Penguin Random House Audio for providing advance review copies for today's episode. The Ferryman [Libro.fm] Logan's Run (1976) [IMDb] An Island Too Lovely [Kindle]
The first chapter can make or break a reader's engagement with a story. We as writers must craft brilliant opening pages in order to hook those picky readers, so let's study the stories of others to see how they do it! Ever hear of the sci-fi cult classic Logan's Run? It's a 1976 film about a world where everyone is young and perfect, and life will always give you just what you want. Once your hand's computer light starts flashing, you have to go be "renewed"--or as one quickly finds out, you die. This immediately came to mind when I picked up Justin Cronin's The Ferryman, so I was a little wary of how this deceiving utopia would compare with the likes of Logan's Run. Happily, my concern was unnecessary. The prologue (yes, a prologue) introduces readers to the "mother" of the book's protagonist. She is preparing to leave all that she knows; since the dust jacket says that folks of a certain age in this utopia are taken away to be "renewed," we can safely assume she's preparing herself for that journey. Unlike Logan's Run, it appears this renewal is almost like a reincarnation: the aged or taken away, bodies de-aged and minds erased, to come back to the island as teenagers to start life again as wards to selected adults of the city. Yes, this prologue is a lot of exposition, but the prose fits the moment, for the woman is describing all that she says as she says farewell to her life. She then recalls meeting her ward, the protagonist Proctor, and is surprised by the maternal feelings she holds. She doesn't understand them. And frankly, the alienness of family feeling is what I find so compelling here. As a writer, we can create whatever kind of world we want, and I see Cronin's done precisely that. Yet something must be relatable for the reader, or they won't feel the story is accessible. Most people have their own sense of family, whether by birth or friendship, but the fact that this society has turned that sense of family into an alien feeling leads readers to question what else has been essentially removed from the human experience--perhaps the soul itself? And what will you learn from these opening pages? Let's find out! Cheers!
You will know Justin Cronin as the author of the landmark The Passage. That trilogy set the world of horror and science fiction (and all points in between) alight in the early 2000s and he's back after eight long years, with The Ferryman. This time he's swapping vampire plagues for something wholly more subtle … but no less terrifying. I can't tell you what ‘cos that would ruin it for everyone, but it may shake the very building blocks of your reality.Justin and I discuss all manner of existential worries, from the nature of reality to the malign impact of ‘wellbeing' lifestyles. We talk about Kazuo Ishiguro, Planet of the Apes and myriad other influences that flow into the wonder, horror and awe of The Ferryman. Don't worry, we cover The Passage too… And he also explains how telling any story is just like telling a joke really, really well.Enjoy!

The islands of Prospera lies in a vast ocean in splendid isolation from the rest of humanity, or whatever remains of it. Citizens enjoy privileged lives dedicated to the highest creative ideals. When their life time is up they are despatched to the mysterious island, The Nursery, to be 'reiterated' as a fresh-faced teenagers. Proctor Bennett is a Ferryman, a specialist enforcer whose job it is to shepherd the soon-to-be 'reiterated' into their next life cycle. But Proctor is experiencing strange dreams and puzzling connections to people he has never met before and an unshakeable feeling that something is wrong with this world: something important, something greater than anyone could possibly imagine, something which could change the fate of humanity itself. In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Justin Cronin about crossing genre borders, what it takes to build a science fiction-fuelled dystopian world and the bureaucracy required to run it, and his exploration of the physical and psychological limitations of the increasing life span of the human race.

On this edition of the Richard Crouse Show we'll meet Thomas Hayden Church. He became a star as Mechanic Lowell Mather on the sitcom “Wings,” was nominated for an Academy Award for his performance in “Sideways” and has had supporting roles in films such as Tombstone, George of the Jungle, The Specials, and Demon Knight. Today, we talk about his new movie, Acidman. In the film, he plays Lloyd, a reclusive man who lives in in the middle of nowhere, and spends his time searching for UFOs. He is estranged from his daughter Maggie and has been given the nickname "Acidman" by the locals. One day his daughter arrives to pass along some important news and they attempt to make contact, with UFOs and each other. We'll also meet actor Melanie Scrofano. You know her from everything from the Crave comedy series Letterkenny and the comedy-drama series Being Erica, to the CTV fantasy-drama series The Listener and the Syfy modern Western drama Wynonna Earp. Today we talk about her latest movie, “The End of Sex.” Later in the show we'll meet author Justin Cronin. In 2010, novel “The Passage” became a phenomenon. The unforgettable tale that critics and readers compared to the novels of Cormac McCarthy, Michael Crichton, Stephen King, and Margaret Atwood became a runaway bestseller and loved by readers around the globe. His latest book, “The Ferryman” is a riveting standalone novel about a group of survivors on a hidden island utopia—where the truth isn't what it seems. No less an expert than Stephen King said, ““The Ferryman is next to impossible to put down once you've read the first few pages. Exciting, mysterious, and totally satisfying, this is a book to get lost in…”

Empire of the Vampire By Jay Kristoff | Book Review Podcast Website: https://gobookmart.com Buy Now: https://amzn.to/3mXQI85 “Jay Kristoff's latest dark fantasy, Empire of the Vampire, is a gothic bloodbath that will leave any reader―including this one―breathless. The story is a vast apocalyptic canvas, reminiscent of Justin Cronin's The Passage, even Stephen King's The Stand, yet Kristoff's work stands on its own ruthless merit as the opening gambit of a richer tale yet to unfold. I can't wait to return again to this rich, lush, and bloody world. Until then, read this book now!” ―James Rollins, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Last Odyssey and The Starless Crown "With Empire of the Vampire, Jay Kristoff has once again shown why he is a master storyteller. Gabriel de León is a complex and complicated new hero for Jay's legion of fans, and soon-to-be fans… I absolutely cannot wait to share this book with my friends and fellow book lovers." ―Sarah Danforth, Towne Book Center (Collegeville, PA) "Empire of the Vampire is an epic marvel! …This is the best book that Jay Kristoff has written. He is a master storyteller …This is a story of vampires and heroes, of love and sorrow, of friendship and loss, of joy and devastation. It is a story of death and darkness, but if you look closely you will find a thread of hope that shines brighter than the sun." ―Meghan Vanderlee, Schuler Books (Grand Rapids, MI) "Kristoff's multifaceted exploration of morality is enticing and complex." ―Publishers Weekly --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gobookmart-review/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/gobookmart-review/support

A Conversation with Justin Cronin, author of the best-selling “The Passage” science fiction fantasy trilogy, hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Justin Cronin was a struggling literary novelist with two books to his credit when he took his young daughter's advice and began writing The Passage, first book in what would be a trilogy about a viral apocalypse that turns people into zombie vampires, and features a young girl as the heroine. The second and third volumes, The Twelve and The City of Mirrors, continue the story, which not only tells an adventure story, but examines a future of climate change and the changing roles of men and women. In this in-depth interview, he talks about The City of Mirrors, the latest volume, as well as the writing of the other two, and the political and social ideas which mirror our own world, as well as the task of writing a literary novel disguised as a potboiler. A shorter version of this interview can be found as a Bookwaves interview. The post Justin Cronin appeared first on KPFA.
