We hope you enjoy, and be sure to get Devolution when it drops next week!
We're back with another interlude! Livius should be acting pretentious, eating brie and drinking wine in France right now, but due to a very inconsiderate global pandemic, we're both stuck at home riding it out. So, we didn't have books planned for this week, and we're coming off a ton of content over the last few months, so we figured we would subject you to more of Robb's guessing games. We hope you enjoy!

Then, the following week we'll be talking about The Ancestor by Danielle Trussoni. Then maybe an interview with her. And somewhere in all of that, maybe we'll get some sleep.
Here's a surprise extra episode! Much like Josh Malerman surprised the world with the release of a serialized novel on his website, we are surprising the same world by dropping an unannounced interview! It's an amazing and inspiring conversation, so strap in for a huge conversation!
So we got a narrow 30 minute window to chat with Max Barry, and this is the discussion that came of it. We spent most of the time talking about his new book Providence. It was a great conversation.

We're back with a Max Barry review! This is his latest, a sci-fi book where the future citizens of the Earth venture out into space to fight a terrifying alien race, relying heavily on an AI powered ship to get the job done.

In which we really try to not be boring, we talk about the unavoidable current events, and Livius gets a little to zipper friendly.
