Welcome to your Friday, the conclusion of the pentalogy known as the work week. We thought every installment in this pentalogy was superb, but we are planning on doing a prequel at some point. For now, take a look at nicely curated offisite links as you head into the duology of your weekend.
Today’s highlights include:
- Ken Liu Podcast interview.
- Why children prefer sci-fi to real science.
- Gaiman on Bradbury.
