The Coode Street Podcast show

Summary: <br> Repost<br> With awards season upon us, we thought it might be worthwhile to re-release our spoiler heavy roundtable discussions for last year. The fourth 2017 awards-eligible book we discussed was Paul McAuley's Into Everywhere.<br> <br> Welcome to the fourth episode of The Coode Street Roundtable. The Roundtable is a monthly podcast from Coode Street Productions where panelists <a href="http://cityoftongues.com/">James Bradley</a>, <a href="http://mondyboy.com/">Ian Mond</a>, and <a href="http://www.jonathanstrahan.com.au">Jonathan Strahan</a>, joined by occasional special guests, discuss a new or recently released science fiction or fantasy novel.<br> Paul McAuley's Into Everywhere<br> This month Coode Street co-host Gary Wolfe joins us to discuss Into Everwhere, the latest novel from Paul McAuley. It’s smart, engaging hard SF adventure described by its publisher as follows:<br> <br> The Jackaroo, those enigmatic aliens who claim to have come to help, gave humanity access to worlds littered with ruins and scraps of technology left by long-dead client races. But although people have found new uses for alien technology, that technology may have found its own uses for people. <br> The dissolute scion of a powerful merchant family, and a woman living in seclusion with only her dog and her demons for company, have become infected by a copies of a powerful chunk of alien code. Driven to discover what it wants from them, they become caught up in a conflict between a policeman allied to the Jackaroo and the laminated brain of a scientific wizard, and a mystery that spans light years and centuries. Humanity is about to discover why the Jackaroo came to help us, and how that help is shaping the end of human history.<br> <br> If you're keen to avoid spoilers, we recommend reading the book before listening to the episode.
