You are listening to a Clarks World magazine podcast with your host and narrator Kate Baker.

Greetings Clarks World Citizens. I hope this podcast finds you very well.

There's not that much news to report, so I'm just going to jump into the second story of a month of March 2015. The piece is titled Cassandra and is by Ken Lou.

Ken Lou is an author and translator of speculative fiction, as well as a lawyer and a programmer.

A winner of the Nebula, Hugo, and World Fantasy Awards, he has been published in the magazine of fantasy and

science fiction, Asimov's Analog, Clark's World, Light Speed, and Strange Horizons

among other places.

He lives with his family near Boston, Massachusetts.

Ken's debut novel, The Grace of Kings, the first in a silk punk epic fantasy series will be published by Saga Press,

Simon and Schuster's new genre fiction imprint in April 2015.

Saga will also publish a collection of his short stories.

You could find Ken at his website, Ken Lou, and that's L-I-U.

Name.

Ken's done some wonderful interviews for us as well, so if you'd like to go back and read those,

you can find an interview this month in the March edition of Clark's World.

If you go back to February 2015, he also has the Spurge

Storyteller conversation with Tang Fay.

And January 2015 brought you exploring the frontier, a conversation with

Gia Chia. December 2014 China Dreams Contemporary Science Fiction.

And if you're looking for fiction by Ken,

go back to May 2009, where you'll see the long haul

from the Annals of transportation, the Pacific monthly.
