Episode 29: Shelley Parker-Chan

What does Shelley Parker-Chan want readers to feel at the end of her debut best-selling fantasy novel She Who Became The Sun? "A feeling of catharsis...the subtitle should be Revenge Of The Genderqueers." 

Also discussed: Wuxia, fate v. triumph of will, and historical fanfiction. (Exciting to note: Shelley's second book, which completes the series, has just come out: He Who Drowned The World.)

Pre-order Mark Cecil's upcoming novel Bunyan and Henry.
