Diesmal spreche ich mit Christian nicht über ein Genre wie die Sword & Sorcery, die Märchen-Fantasy, die Science Fantasy, die Social Science Fiction oder die Space Opera, sondern über das Leben und Werk von Ray Bradbury (1920 - 2012), der für mich zu den größten Schriftstellern der Phantastik gehört.

COPPERHEART has returned. On April 21, 2024, Copperheart will return with the pilot episode of our anthology series, "Shattered Echoes." When we last left the survivors of GL51 and EL27, they were forced to submit to the will of an alien visitor, a creature with the power to alter reality. What The Visitor didn't realize was that breaking the current of breath from a butterfly's wings could have consequences beyond anything they could have imagined. Copperheart: Shattered Echoes is an ongoing anthology series of tales across multiple slivers of reality. Explore the past, solve mysteries of the present, and charge blindly into both terrifying and glorious futures. The first part of the series will run throughout 2024, on the last Sunday of each month, then pick up with a new wave of stories in early 2025. To learn more about the show, visit RiggStories.com

Today we talked to Reese Hogan about his book My Heart Is Human (Space Wizard Science Fantasy, 2023). The body belongs to Joel Lodowick, a single parent and trans man whose only wish, at the story's outset, is to raise his five year old daughter in peace. The robot is Acubens, who has been warehoused for nearly 10 years until Joel tries to activate him. At first, Joel is excited for the advantages Acubens' conjoined consciousness confers, like the ability to get a much higher paying job with Acubens' ability to make any numeric calculations with dizzying speed. But when Acubens—professing to have only Joel's best interests at heart—threatens to erase Joel's memory as part of an “upgrade,” Joel gets more than he bargained for. Complicating their relationship is the fact that in this near future world, all technology has been outlawed. If the authorities discover Acubens has been reactivated—and worse, that Acubens is taking up more and more space in Joel's mind—they both risk being destroyed. Reese Hogan is a transmasc science fiction author of four novels. His short fiction has been published in The Decameron Project, A Coup of Owls, and on the Tales to Terrify podcast, as well as in two anthologies. In addition to writing, Reese enjoys singing in the local gay men's chorus and running. He lives with his two children in New Mexico. Find out more about Rob Wolf and Brenda Noiseux.
