## Resource

Episode 79 coming in from orbit. This is an interesting one; I should like this more than I end up doing, but regardless it has a lot to say. Also, sorry about the voice sounding a bit nasally; I was on the other side of influenza while recording this. Type: Review | Book: The Man Who Fell to Earth | Writer: Walter Tevis
