    Critical Friends Episode 24: On Oeuvres
    Jun 1 2026

    In this episode of Critical Friends, the Strange Horizons SFF criticism podcast, Kate Macdonald and Duncan Lawie join Dan Hartland to tackle the question of the back catalog. How should reviewers and readers approach writers with a number of books already to their name? How should we think about and access authors who have enjoyed a career of some duration?

    Kate's review of The Curve of the World by Vonda N. McIntyre.

    Duncan's review of Loss Protcol by Paul McAuley.
