We discuss Bruce Hamilton's 'Too Much of Water', chapters 1-4. Flex is back, and it's time to dive into a water-based mystery aboard the Goyaz. Edgar Cantrell is bound for Barbados, and all manner of high society find themselves aboard the boat together. Singers, cricketers, barristers, and of course military-man Major Major. One too many bumps on a stormy night signals the pre-emptive departure of boat-enthusiast Mr. Rottentosser. Soon, the crew summons our unlikely hero Edgar to play detective to figure out how such an able seaman went overboard, and what other dooms may befall this voyage.We're also joined by Fantasy Author Samantha Shannon, to talk about religion, character motivations, and how her deep political intrigue in the 'Roots of Chaos' series represents its own game of whydunnit. Samantha is in town for the Sydney Writers Festival, and you can find the details of her talks here.
