The Last Word: Conversations with WritersJohn BiscelloFascinating insights into the “storied and wild mind” of author, playwright, poet and performer John Biscello with his latest book The Last Furies. Our far-ranging conversation takes us from his home in the “grunge-wonderland” of Taos to lands of fables and myths and even deeper into lucid dreamscapes real and imagined, awake and asleep. Spending 23 minutes with John convinces me that science fiction writer Robert Heinlein invented the word “grok” to participate in a conversation like this one. johnbiscello.com and losttelegrampress.ca

SCIFI SNAKEp. 130: John Scalzi – Old Man’s WarEndelig læser vi John Scalzi
John Scalzi (f. 1969) er amerikansk forfatter, tidligere journalist og blogger.
Han debuterede som romanforfatter med Old Man’s War i 2005 – en historie, der først blev udgivet som serie på hans hjemmeside, før et forlag opdagede den.
Scalzi regnes for en af de store moderne stemmer i den underholdende, plotdrevne science fiction. Han trækker tydeligt på klassikere som Heinlein og Haldeman, men med mere humor og mindre patos. Hans stil er hurtig, dialogdrevet og teknologisk jordnær.
Old Man’s War blev siden til en storsl...

Novel Dialogue1.6 Military Sci-Fi Minus the Misogyny: Kameron Hurley with Gerry Canavan (AV)Gerry Canavan talks to geek feminist author Kameron Hurley about her Hugo-nominated novel The Light Brigade. A love-hate letter to military science fiction, The Light Brigade turns the form on its head. It is built around women fighters, queerness, and defying authority while being at the bottom of the chain of command. The novel also has surprising roots in the history of anti-apartheid resistance in South Africa where Kameron lived for a time to research women’s roles in armed revolt. We discuss delayed reveals of characters’ race and gender in sci-fi in light of the genre’s history of Whit...

Robert A. Heinlein is one of the important authors who shaped science fiction. This is a
conversation about reading and re-reading Heinlein in 2016. Sometimes you hear
claims that he wrote anti-feminist, racist books, promoting an extreme right-wing political
view. In what ways are these accusations true and false? If you’ve never read Heinlein
but want to educate yourself, where is the best place to start?
