KAMN The Kick-Ass Mystic Ninjas on Robert J. Sawyer’s Far Seer

SFFaudio Online Audio

Robert J. Sawyer’s first novel in his Quintaglio ascension series, Far Seer, is under scrutiny by The Kick-Ass Mystic Ninjas this week. The novel is set on an alien planet populated by intelligent dinosaur-like creatures. The “far seer” of the title refers to a telescope and the story parallels the events surrounding Galileo’s discovery of the moons of Jupiter. This is a terrific Science Fiction tale about the practice of science. But don’t take my word for it, listen to the ninjas including the recently returned Joe Murphy (AKA Randy Innuendo).

Heart Of Darkness by Joseph Conrad

SFFaudio Online Audio

I’m sure it could be argued, and maybe even successfully, that Joseph Conrad’s Heart Of Darkness doesn’t qualify as Horror. But I’ll be damned if I’ll be the one to make that argument! First published in 1902, this novella explores morality and human nature in “darkest” Africa and comes to a deeply noirish conclusion, one I can only describe as true-horror. As a co-production between LoudLit.org and LiteralSystems.org this is quite a fine sounding audiobook, reading duties are split between Tom Franks, providing the narration and David Kirkwood, who performs the story within the story. Check it out and let me know if you agree with me that Heart Of Darkness is Horror.

Hour Of The Wolf radio show has Triptree

SFFaudio Online Audio

Hour Of The Wolf, is a two-hour live radio program on WBAI (99.5 FM) in New York presenting Science Fiction and Fantasy. Each program promises either a reading, radio drama or interview, often the entry will be quite mixed. The long running program also sometimes features live call-ins. Hour Of The Wolf has for a long time had a rudimentary website, but actual listening to the broadcast is made rather difficult by its lack of radio syndication, lack of a podcast and unwieldy hours of broadcast (5am to 7am on Sunday mornings). You can however with a bit of finesse use the WBAI archive, to catch recent shows. I’ve managed to navigate some of the playlist archives and found a few gems I think everyone will appreciate…

September 9th 2006 – Guest and SF author Barry N. Malzberg talks about James Triptree Jr.! |MP3|

August 26th 2006 – An ARTC Radio Drama entitled Hour Of The Wolf and a radio dramatization of James Triptree Jr.’s “Houston, Houston, Do You Read?”. |MP3|

August 5th 2006 – The guest is Julie Philips author of James Tiptree, Jr.: The Double Life of Alice B. Sheldon. |MP3|

With no RSS feed or podcast we’ll just have to keep checking the website to see what new, or old, shows catch our interest.
