Myke Cole Wins Compton Crook Award!
We’re told by the Internet that our friend, Myke Cole, has snatched up a Compton Crook Award from the Baltimore Science Fiction Society this year for his novel Control Point. We’d like to say an enormous congratulations to Myke. He definitely deserves the award. Jen and I (and I’m sure Paul and Julia, too) have enjoyed both of his novels, and we’ve enjoyed every second he’s given to us for podcasts. I imagine this is just the beginning for Myke’s career. Soon, we’ll see his name on other awards lists. So congratulations, Myke. You rock! If you’d like to check out some of our interviews or discussions with Myke, you can do so here, here, here, and here.

We discuss everything from book trailers to superhero ethics to worldbuilding and narrative development. Plus, Myke and Shaun give us something really disturbing to think about involving a giant salad bowl… We hope you enjoy the episode! (FYI: Some of the audio isn’t as strong as I would like.

The Book Trailer: Note: There’s a point in the podcast when the audio cut out, changing what Shaun said from “I’m unlikely to dodge the draft” to “I’m likely to dodge the draft.” A weird audio flub… You can also support this podcast by signing up for a one month free trial at Audible.

A New Viking Amoeba Recruit from Myke Cole
We just interviewed him (episode goes live tomorrow), but nothing tides you over like a little bit of art and geek humor! Here you go: The Taephus Commando — Dictavian Scoidius Strength 7; Intelligence 5 Special Ability: Reinforcements (If Dictavian is outnumbered in combat, you may draw enough Viking Amoebas from your Consumed pile to even the odds, starting from the top) (Shadow Ops: Control Point by Myke Cole)
