from Just In Case We Die · host Aaron/Rodney/Rebecca
Send us Fan MailOnce upon a time, Aaron recommended a novel he had recently completed to Rebecca, citing it as his favorite novel of 2021. Already familiar with the work of the author, Rebecca jumped right in, despite Aaron’s misgivings about the science-fiction content of this spectacular book.
