Trismegistus

If you're into history podcasts then I imagine you already know about the Rest is History, but I'll mention it just in case.

As for books, yesterday I wrote a manifesto for Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman here.

Other books I've read recently that have really stayed on my mind include:

* The Warm Hands of Ghosts by Katherine Arden, which is a beautiful, painful and rewarding historical novel with supernatural elements

* Katherine Addison's The Cemeteries of Amalo series, which is focused on Thara Celehar, a secondary character in The Goblin Emperor, but is more detective fiction rather than political drama.
