And to want to give a special thank you to Boom Ulysses and Great Britain, who just gave

us this five-star review.

Great host, great guests, fascinating topics.

There's so much in this podcast, every sci-fi fan will find something.

There's discussions of the classic novels, reviews of modern works, and the interviews

and panel discussions usually have interesting guests.

David's got a good interview style, and often asks insightful questions, just a good podcast

overall.

So big thanks again to Boom Ulysses for that great review.

Alright, so now let's get to our show.

Hello, and welcome to episode 530 of Geeks Guide to the Galaxy.

I'm David Barcurtley, author of the book Save Me Please and Other Stories, which is

available now on Amazon.com.

We had a great conversation about the book back in episode 500, so definitely check that

out if you missed it.

And in this episode, we'll be discussing the classic 1992 novel A Fire Upon the Deep

by Werner Vinci, the first book in his space opera series The Zones of Thought.

And this one includes spoilers for everything in the book, so just be aware of that.

And I'm joined by three guests.

So first up, we've got Tobias S. Bekel, making his 15th appearance on the show.
