  • Missed opportunity

    The hosts spend most of their time complaining about gender or religious issues through a 2020 lens, criticising May for her personal beliefs.

    They are entitled to their opinions of course but I was hoping to hear fun and intelligent chat about characters, plot development and story lines.

    What we got was millennial winging about how unfair it was that Julian May mistreated their favourite characters because of her beliefs ! She’s the author, it’s her world !!!
