When In Rome, Wear a Mask & Kill Aliens S1E25

What this episode covers

It's Lit & Liquor, back at it again with the white...hillbilly accents. Join us in Ancient Rome this week, and whether you arrive via the Martial Empire or spaceship, you'll still fit right in. Sabaa Tahir's "An Ember in the Ashes" is up first, exploring the horrors of war and young (but totally hunky) soldiers in a thrilling adventure tale. We've paired it with an original drink by the same name, using our Liquor of the Week, Bayou Satsuma Rum. Second on the agenda is the critically acclaimed (by us, anyway) sci-fi novel "Killer" by David Drake and Karl Edward Wagner. In a bizarre pairing, we see alien forces clash with the gladiators of Ancient Rome, all while enjoying some Killer Sangria like the civilized book club we truly are.Join us next week for our next Harry Potter installment, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" and find all our recipes and pictures at litandliquor.com
