50 - The Obelisk Gate (pt 1)

A discussion of N K Jemisin's The Obelisk Gate, and short fiction recommendations

Kaleb Russell and Rose Eveleth join me to talk about The Obelisk Gate.  Also Charles Payseur recommends short fiction about libraries.

Thanks for your patience during an extended (and unplanned) hiatus.  Hopefully the podcast will begin regularly monthly service now.  You can also subscribe to my emails about having a hobby farm & being a Quaker, or follow my blogging about Tolkien.
