Listen "E0043 Appendix W 99 - Terminus Est"
Episode Synopsis
In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, some things come to and end. Join us as we look at the impact of the Appendix W on real world events through a look at one of the most iconic blades in fiction: Severian's Terminus Est from Gene Wolfe's 1980 novel The Shadow of the Torturer. But much like the blade, there is much, much more hidden below the surface of this episode.BibliographyChris Hables Gray- “There Will Be War!”: Future War Fantasies and Militaristic Science Fiction in the 1980s.
