Episode Synopsis

Tune in for Arthur’s thoughts on Steelstriker, the second and final entry in the Skyhunter Duology by Marie Lu (Legend, Warcross). Like the first book, this sequel brings out the dystopian YA tropes: “special rebel youngsters lead an insurrection against a dictatorial government,” “post-apocalyptic world built on the ashes of a technologically advanced civilization,” and “psychic bond romance.” Is Arthur up for all of them? In this specific package, yes, yes he is.

TW: torture, murder, colonialism, cultural appropriation, PTSD, discussion of child abuse and parental death
