Hello Readers. As you’ll hear, we had a good old ding dong on this one so we’ve decided to split this episode in two. You’ll hear Chris’ recommendations for what you could have read or watched instead in two weeks. This will be the format from now on so you get time to read alone, send us your praise or arguments and you get two episodes a month. We’ll be here the second and fourth Monday of each month. Thanks for your support.

Content Warning - This book was first published in 1885. Although it was written as an adventure story it is of its time and includes colonial attitudes and racist slurs. We will be discussing this in detail but we will obviously not be repeating any of the offensive language. Tread carefully.
