The Final of Book One is nigh! And let's go out of the half way point with a half way bang.
Chapter 17 of The War of the Worlds sees us with the Narrator's Brother and the Ephinstone's at the end of the Country, in a desperate escape from an England invaded by Martians.
We've got the ironclad Thunderchild, with it's sophisticated strategy of ramming 7 shades of shit out of the Martian Tripods. But is it enough to deter the army of Mars from taking down the would be refugees?
Also joining us for a chat about gender in scifi is the fantastic Jen Ives. Jen is a stand up comedian and host of the podcast Peak Trans. She joins us to talk about the weirdness of deciding that it's exclusively men from Mars and that women are boats. We also have a game of Trans terrestrial icons, where we look at some of scifi's top (and not) trans icons.
