Latest podcast episode is up in which we repeatedly fail to wrap our tongues around the various place, people and concept names in one of the most ground breaking Sci Fi novels ever written. Sorry Ursula.

You can get it at source here, on the Fediverse via PeerTube here or any one of the seemingly infinite number of places that syndicate podcasts here.

No sponsors, no ads, just talk.

(or in this case, listen)

This is not an audiobook, it's satanistic atheists discussing the book. Not sure what to make of that but I'm going to give it a listen.

Le Guin has been a lot on my mind lately, or maybe on social media? I read all her stuff like 20 years ago. Amazing. Also one of those authors who resisted movie adaptations (not exclusively though), which in the end is usually a plus.

She thought the lathe of heaven was a great adaption. She said the Earthsea completely missed the point and was trash.

Don't worry, we're not LaVayen's ;)

There is a link to the book in the article, seems like it might be free to read with an internet archive account

I should wake up before commenting. Thanks for pointing it out! I’ll give it a try as well
