He's designed a bunch of games like the Schema framework and the recent Saints of the Empty Throne but is probably best known for his RPG theory, such as the essential Manyfold Glossary. He's a big open source advocate and most of his work is distributed for free under a creative commons license. Everything he writes on his itch page is worth reading for designers looking for language and tools to diagnose or just better understand what it is exactly they're doing.

Reading from the Reddit post about RPGs, Saul came across a post by a first time GM who was looking for advice on his ideas that he has for a brand new campaign. The new GM wanted to embed a powerful NPC with the party that would grow in power as the party grew in power. There was quite a few responses and Saul talked about the post with Jolene. There was quite a bit of discussion and funny stories about new GM mistakes and the current episode is the result. Thank You All for Listening. One of the books Saul could not remember was Eragon by Christopher James Paolini The other book was the Book of Jhereg by Steven Brust Web Art by Jim Foster Episode Art by Michael Shean-Jones Song by Varjen, Song The Big Advice, from the album Hardland EP Used Under the Creative Commons License 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/

In this convervsation, Steven Brust (@StevenBrust on twitter) and I speak about writing—how plot is like a magic trick—how the the imagination and blind luck builds worlds, and then we speak about his parent's involvement in Minneapolis unionization politics over the course of the 20th century. Steven has so, so many books. I suggest the Vlad Taltos series, but a couple great one-offs are Agyar and Brokedown Palace.

Steven Brust is a popular science fiction author with 31 novels to his credit. He’s known for the Vlad Taltos series as well as the Khaavren romances. He’s also a musician: drummer, guitarist and banjo player, and he has a solo record out, A Rose For Iconoclastes. Like many writers, as we pondered on the show, he has a cat. We chatted about his early career as a computer programmer and the life-changing event that launched him into writing science fiction. Steven’s career has been filled with a fortunate series of happenstances, “luck,” both in the cover art of his novels and his choice of themes. Inspired by Roger Zelazny’s Lord of Light, Steven writes what he’d love to read himself, and that has worked amazingly well. You’ll enjoy our chat about all things science fiction.

Welcome to the Startup Geometry podcast, where we talk to the creators, innovators and explorers who make the world what it is. In this episode, I talk with Steven Brust, author of the Vlad Taltos/Dragaera novels. We talk about his writing process, important influences and future plans. I've been a huge fan of Steven's, ever since his first novel, Jhereg, introduced us to wisecracking assassin Vlad Taltos and his sidekick Loiosh back in 1983. His latest books are Hawk and The Incrementalists. You'll notice that I immediately mispronounce his last name (which is pronounced BROOST, though spelled BRUST), despite having pasted a note with the phonetic spelling of his name to the microphone I was using at the time. Podcasting is HARD. This podcast can be found on iTunes and Stitcher, or accessed directly below. Show links: Dreamcafe, Steven Brust's homepage His Twitter account: @stevenbrust At the Tor.com site: An excerpt from Hawk An excerpt from The Incrementalists An interview with Jo Walton about the Dragaera books A short story set on Dragaera Fritz Leiber Michael Moorcock Roger Zelazny Skyler White Emma Bull The Isaiah Berlin quote I referenced with regard to Incrementalist politics was in an interview with him which was excerpted in The 50 Year Argument, a documentary on the New York Review of Books, where I first saw and heard it. Similar sentiments could be found elsewhere in his work, for example in Crooked Timber, a collection of his essays and lectures.
What do scheming wizards, all-powerful rings, and a world populated by elves, hobbits, and trolls all have in common? All of these words can describe The Lord of the Rings. We read a book about vampires called Agyar, though. Tune in to this week’s Genre Stop!, as Bri and Scott tussle over a slim book […]
Steven Brust worked as a musician and a computer programmer before coming to prominence as a writer in 1983 with Jhereg, the first of his novels about Vlad Taltos, a human professional assassin in a world dominated by long-lived, magically-empowered, humanlike “Dragaerans.” He is a guest of honor for Convolution 2012.
