  • Summary

  • Every week we discuss the first page--and only the first page--of a different novel, ranging from cult oddities (Tarnsman of Gor) to literary classics (Paradise Lost) to influential thrillers (Jaws). Each episode focuses on that first page and uses it as a jumping off point for an idiosyncratic discussion of media and how we make stories make sense.

nice

nice finally see something of the Man-K'zin wars on Audible. I just wish it was the actual stories, & not just a review with discussion.
