CBC Radio One‘s Saturday Morning program North by Northwest has finally posted both all four parts of that George R.R. Martin Studio One Book Club interview and discussion started last Saturday. Host Sheryl MacKay and the audience talked to Martin about his latest in the Song Of Ice And Fire series of novels: A Feast For Crows. I found it a very candid and interesting look into the creation of the land of Westeros. You can listen to both parts via RealAudio:
