## Resource

Welcome back to Post-Apocalyptia! This week, we're heading back to the 1990s with Paul Cook's sci-fi novel, Fortress on the Sun. We'll talk about aliens, supergeniuses, and narcolepsy, and we'll ask an intriguing question: What if the apocalypse happened, and you didn't know it? Join us there, at the end of the world! Fortress on the Sun is available in used print copies, and also in ebook format. Post-Apocalyptia can be found on most podcast apps, and on our website at https://www.postapocalyptia.com. We can also be found on social media on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Twitter/X, Bluesky, and Reddit. Have a story you'd like to see us feature? Or, want to join us as a guest?
