Text the Bookcast and say "hi"!

Welcome to Chapter 83! My guest is author and podcaster, William Bernhardt. We got together on release day for his new book The Superman Wars: A Battle for Truth, Justice, and an American Icon.

William is the author of more than sixty books, including the nationally bestselling Ben Kincaid legal thriller series. He has received numerous awards for his books and has also written plays, a musical, children’s stories, and New York Times crossword puzzles. In 2013, he became a Jeopardy! champion. He lives in Oklahoma with his wife and children.

In our conversation we talk about the book, the wrestling match between art and commerce, the challenge of writing narrative nonfiction, and I test Bill’s lifelong love for Superman with a quick Superman quiz. It’s a fun conversation for people at every level of comics appreciation.
