Episode 9: "Thieves' World and the Shared World Phenomenon"
David and Chris discuss the origins and impact of Thieves' World, and the publishing phenomenon known as the shared world anthology, as begun in 1979.
This is a special episode covering not a single book, but a publishing phenomenon from some of the most talented writers of SF/F from the 1930s to the present collaborating and producing work that has stood the test of time. We’re talking about the shared world anthology, which started with Thieves’ World in 1978, flared into incandescent life in the 80s, and burns on to this day.
Next episode we will discuss the stories of Thieves' World, volume one of the original fantasy shared universe, created and edited by Robert Asprin and Lynn Abbey, and featuring some of the top fantasy writers of the 70s, 80s, and 90s.
