Episode Twenty and Seven - In Which We Discuss Beauty

from Cracking the Spine · host Sean Curran

With the dramatic reading, it's fair to say we've spared no expense.Music used: Turning Leaves by Honeychurch Books discussed:Aurora by: Kim Stanley RobinsonCrooked by: Austin GrossmanHorrorstör by: Grady HendrixMarabou Stork Nightmares by: Irvine WelshFilth by: Irvine WelshThe Martian Chronicles by: Ray BradburyRed Seas Under Red Skies by: Scott LynchSnakes on A Plane: A Novelization by: Christa FaustThe Dinosaur Lords by: Victor Milan
