    Episode 14.5 - Songs of a Dead Dreamer & Grimscribe by Thomas Ligotti - Part 7

    As temperatures soar across Europe, Ligeia and Leraje decide to cheer themselves up with three more stories from the Maestro of Misanthropy, Thomas Ligotti. This time we read the stories from 'The Voice of the Demon' section from Grimscribe. There are four stories in that section but we had already read 'In The Shadow of Another World' so we didn't talk much about that one. If you want to hear us talk about that story, go to episode 3.5 which is the second one in the list of Ligotti episodes below.

    Episode 14 - The Wasp Factory by Iain Banks

    This time we talk about Iain Banks' 1984 debut novel The Wasp Factory. The book carries content warnings, notably for the animal cruelty in it and so does this episode as we have to discuss these aspects. Obviously we don't graphically describe the details though.
