S&L Podcast – #74 – Live at DragonCon with Robert J. Sawyer

Shows / September 7th, 2011

Dragon*Con is one of our favorite times of year, and 2011 was no exception! We had the wonderful opportunity to interview Hugo and Nebula-award winning science fiction author Robert J. Sawyer. This was especially fortuitous, considering we’re reading FlashForward for the book club this month (ok… that was no coincidence). 

There are no Quick Burns or Bare Your Swords this week, but thanks to everyone who sent in questions for the interview. Pick up Flashforward at a library or book store near you, and join in on the discussion on Goodreads!

 

Also, check out previous Dragon*Con interviews, including David Gerrold and Timothy Zahn!
