Shallow & PedanticThe Brust of the Lieber Fitz-GeraldWe indulge in some Edmund Fitzgerald Porter and wax on about two creative fantasy authors that we've introduced each other two: Stephen Brust and Fritz Leiber. In the process, we hit upon why Andrew doesn't like cross-world fantasy, whether sci-fi and fantasy should be distinct, and stumble upon the Universal Field Theory of Creative Decline.
