Jim (Father) and Zach (Son) talk about their ideas and perspectives on fantasy fiction, starting with Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time series but straying in various other directions as well. The generational difference in how they view what they read will become obvious (and entertaining, they hope!). Come enjoy our debates and explorations over what all these books mean, and see who you agree with.

Mongrels: Stephen Graham Jones Redefines the Werewolf

Werewolves. Family. Survival. Mongrels by Stephen Graham Jones is a werewolf story like nothing you’ve read before — gritty, heartfelt, and hauntingly real. In this solo episode, Jim dives into this 2016 horror-coming-of-age novel that redefines what it means to be a monster… or maybe just a human trying to survive on the fringes.

This isn’t your typical werewolf story — no castles, no curses, no easy answers. Just life on the run, blood under the fingernails, and a family bound together by more than fur and fangs.

If you’ve read The Only Good Indians or My Heart Is a Chainsaw, then you owe it to yourself to go back and see where Jones truly hit his stride. Mongrels is raw, beautiful, and unforgettable.
