S&L Podcast - #61 - Literary blue balls
/We get excited about the reality of George R. R. Martin's A Dance with Dragons and the scariness of a movie based on Ender's Game. We discuss how much vampires distracted from the concepts of Blindsight. And Veronica expresses her frustration at books without clear, satisfying endings.
