350. Steven Heumann Probing Ethics of Ends Justifying the Means with Sci-Fi


Listen Later

Steven Heumann spent a decade in screenwriting for television. Novel writing is his second career, to the point of even creating his own publishing house to publish his novels.
The storyline of his contemporary sci-fi novel, “Paper Heroes,” is an interesting one. On the surface, Steven presents middle-aged men living out their boyhood superhero dreams. However, underneath, he addresses ethical issues that can be safely discussed through SF&F, such as whether the end justifies the means, and the consequences of violating the basic agreements of mutual trust and honesty between marriage partners.
