In this episode we review The Thousand Earths, by Stephen Baxter.  This was an interesting book, but we're not in agreement on this one.  On Science Fiction - Science Fact we look at bringing loved ones back from the dead using AI.  If this sounds like a Black Mirror episode you'd be right.  We also get into the book of the month, and we've got a pretty great pick for you this month.

On the show this week is science fiction legend, Joe Haldeman. If you read sci-fi, you've probably read, or at least heard of The Forever War. Perhaps the first anti-war science fiction book written by a veteran. Joe is one of the few authors to have won both the Hugo and Nebula awards, and he is also a lifetime member and past president of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA).  We talk about his friendship with Robert A. Heinlein, politics in sci-fi, and the evolution of the genre.
