Ep 95 - Star Wars: From a Certain Point of View

Have you ever looked at a character in the background of a movie and thought, “I wonder what that guy’s story is?” Have you ever wondered how a certain character got to that point in the story? Have you ever thought about all of the beings that were lost in that big explosion, even if it saved the day? Star Wars: From a Certain Point of View is a collection of 40 stories from characters that filled that original classic. Some are well known characters like Yoda, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Grand Moff Tarkin. Others are from those who had very little screen time like Aunt Beru and Biggs Darklighter. And others who you may have never even considered like the mouse droids and the dianoga in the trash compactor on the Star Destroyer.

Ep 92 - A Psalm for the Wild-Built

Imagine a world where not only did humans turn things around and not destroy the planet, but we also managed to peacefully co-exist with sentient robots and allowed them to go off and do their own thing? In this month’s book, A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers, a tea serving monk, Sibling Dex, goes on a journey and meets a robot, Mosscap, who has not been seen for hundreds of years. Together, they try to answer the question all robots have for humanity, “ “what do people need?” The philosophical questions it raises fill the lion’s share of this short yet thoughtful book.

Grab your boxers and your favorite talking cat, we’re heading back to the dungeon! This month we are discussing the next three books in the Dungeon Crawler Carl series by Matt Dinniman.

In book four, The Gate of the Feral Gods, the group has to work with a bunch of slackers to pop their bubble and escape from gods trying to crush them; even cute giant puppies. And in The Butcher’s Masquerade, things get emotional as Carl and Donut have to face people from their past and strengthen their bond in order to fight for the future. Buckle up, because this series doesn’t slow down from here!

Since then, he has written and released, two more books in the Bobiverse series, Heaven’s River and Not Till We Are Lost, and second book in the Quantum Earth Series, Earthside, two short stories, Feedback and A Change of Plans, and a one off book that may get a sequel as well, Roadkill.

No worries, this is going to be fun. Well, for the reader at least. Carl on the other hand has no shoes, no pants, and his only companion is his ex-girlfriend’s cat… who can talk. Believe it or not, as dark as that sounds, this is a hilarious book series we can’t get enough of. Find out why when we discuss the first two books in the series; Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman and Carl’s Doomsday Scenario by Matt Dinniman.
