@realmsunknown.bsky.social subgenre deepdive this week is gender; whether a society where gendered assumptions are flipped (The Priory of the Orange Tree), or doing away with binaries (The Left Hand Of Darkness / Ancillary Justice); or characters without gender; or gender exaggerated to the Nth 1/2

Subgenre deep dive this week is non-traditionally published; experiments with form, genre and medium in sci fi and fantasy. Think webcomics, indie published books, The Last Post (lol), the way the Revolutions podcast suddenly dropped a season of speculative Martian Revolution Recs please!

I've been reading @alicefraser.bsky.social's A Passion For Passion and basically every page there's a perfectly constructed sentence which in any other book would be the best joke of the book.

Special guest so recording this week’s @realmsunknown.bsky.social a little early. The theme is heroes on the wrong side of the law. LOTS of them around I know, but where do you think it’s done best or most interestingly? Books, movies, games, graphic novels, TV shows, recommend me your faves!

This week’s subgenre deep dive; sci fi and fantasy that actually deals with infants and children inside the plot rather than whisking them off to be aged up or fridging them for trauma-motivation. Your suggestions please!

The subgenre deep dive for this week’s @realmsunknown.bsky.social is sci fi or fantasy where admin plays a heavy role. Is our main character an accountant? Do our heroes go to court?

I missed @realmsunknown.bsky.social two episodes on children's literature from picture books to YA fiction. I listened last night, and those episodes are just incredible. @alicefraser.bsky.social and @podchris.bsky.social knocked them out of the park. youtu.be/gCBWHnjC6NY?...
