I'm in love with the Otherland! We're on the same wave length so I'm subscribing :]
Fun to listen to
I started listening because of the reviews of the Dresden Files, and I enjoyed those so much that I subscribed. He keeps it short, and gives a good review of the books, along with fun trivia. Loved it!
Review
I love this podcast. Chris gives a basic story line, let's us know what he thinks, and reads a short excerpt. More importantly, though, he shares little bits of his life and Japan (where he lives), his humor, and makes it fun with little quizzes which all make his show more human and approachable than some other book review podcasts I've downloaded. I recommend checking this podcast out!
