The 2022 Dog Days of Summer Special!
The iOtians celebrate the Dog Days of Summer by checking out some great streaming content: Prey on Hulu, Westworld Season 4 on HBO Max, and Neil Gaiman's The Sandman on Netflix. They also share their thoughts on the forthcoming House of Dragons (HBO Max) and Rings of Power (Amazon Prime).
Jake and Ron also got in touch with authors they've interviewed in the past to see what they're reading and watching this summer:
Edward Ashton
CITY OF ORANGE, by David Yoon. A deep exploration of love and loss and what happens when the world ends but you're too stubborn or stupid to end with it.
THE 22 MURDERS OF MADISON MAY, by Max Barry. A police procedural that tripped and fell through a manhole into the multiverse.
And also the Futurama reboot. I don't have super high expectations for this one, but I know I'm gonna watch it anyway.
Sylvain Neuvel
Books: Face by Joma West comes out in a month or two. My favorite read in a while. The Violence, by Delilah Dawson is pretty recent and awesome.
TV. New season of For All Mankind coming to Apple TV. That show’s a must for anyone who likes Take Them To the Stars.
Also, I think Strange New Worlds is the best trek yet
Juliette Wade
I'm hoping to read August Kitko and the Mechas from Space by Alex White, Saint Death's Daughter by C.S.E. Cooney, and Comeuppance Served Cold by Marion Deeds.
Neil Sharpson
Hi gents! At the moment I'm reading Trilby Black's excellent "Finnegan's Awake," a YA novel about a teenage girl who believes she's been raised to single-handedly fight the War on Terror.
I'm trying to read more Irish language stuff so I'm gearing up to tackle "Cluiche na Corónach" which is the translation of "Game of Thrones" (wish me luck).
The rest of my TBR pile consists of Lies of Descent by Troy Carroll Butcher and Blacktongue Thief by Christopher Buehlman. I'd recommend The Third Policeman by Flann O'Brian, one of the funniest science-fiction books ever written.
Marina Lostetter
I'm looking forward to reading Our Lady of Mysterious Ailments (book 2 in the Edinburgh Nights series) by T.L. Huchu,
What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher, The Book Eaters by Sunyi Dean, watching the adaptation of Mr. Malcom's List, and finally starting What We Do in the Shadows.

Interview with New York Times Bestseller and 5-Time Bram Stoker Award Winner Jonathan Maberry, Author of Kagen the Damned
We're celebrating episode 50 with New York Times bestselling author and fantastic human being, Jonathan Maberry!
Jonathan Maberry doesn't have time to talk to us. He's writing another novel. He's editing Weird Tales Magazine. He's brokering a deal with an agent, copyediting a manuscript with his assistant, coordinating a speaking engagement with his publicist, or prepping a session of his Writers Coffeehouse for aspiring authors. He's probably in the process of winning another Bram Stoker award--he only has five, after all. He's scripting a comic for Marvel or IDW. He's pre-screening a pilot based on one of his series.
Jonathan Maberry doesn't have time to talk to us. But he does anyway. In fact, he's got a bookstore appearance coming up in a couple of hours, but he stays on the call past the hour mark to regale us with a tale of how he met Ray Bradbury. He's met all your heroes--Stan Lee, Lin Carter, Stephen King, Michael Moorcock, Harlan Ellison, Lance Henrickson, and on and on--and they're his heroes, too. But he also tells us about his beloved grandmother, a very special hero in his own story.
He tells us why he's generous with his ideas. He's kind to people he's never heard of, like us. He has good advice. He has infinite delight in his craft. Jonathan Maberry is a legend in our world. If you love Black Panther or Wolverine or Captain America, you know his work. You may be a fan of his Joe Ledger thriller series, or have a son or daughter reading his Nightsiders books. Maybe you caught V-Wars on Netflix because you loved the comic. Or the Pine Deep novels bring you back to your own hometown's sinister past.
You know Jonathan Maberry's Rot & Ruin books if you love zombies. He's penned novels based on the immensely popular Deadlands RPG. He's edited X-Files and Aliens anthologies. He even wrote a jujitsu instruction manual or two, before he started producing fiction in his mid-40s. And he just squeezed his first epic fantasy novel into a thoroughly overloaded schedule--Kagen the Damned, which came out with St. Martin's Griffin this May. The sequel, the Son of the Poisoned Rose, is already on tap for January of next year.
We could keep going, probably all day, but there's an interview to get to. Because in spite of all Jonathan Maberry has on his plate, he made the time, and we couldn't be more grateful for it. Kagen the Damned by Jonathan Maberry published by St. Martin's Griffin
Son of the Poisoned Rose by Jonathan Maberry to be published by St. Martin's Griffin
I Say Your Name in the Dark Nights: A Story of Kagen the Damned by Jonathan Maberry to be published as an e-Book by St. Martin's Griffin in November 2022.
