Sword and Laser.
00:00:14
Hello, everyone.
00:00:15
Welcome to the Sword
and Laser show.
00:00:17
I'm Veronica Belmont.
00:00:18
TOM MERRITT: And I'm
Tom Merritt.
00:00:19
We just came through an airlock
00:00:20
into a castle in space.
00:00:21
How fun is this show?
00:00:22
VERONICA BELMONT: I know.
00:00:22
I can't even deal with this set
right now, I'm so excited.
00:00:24
But we wanted to say thank you
to some of the people who made
00:00:26
this happen, first
and foremost.
00:00:28
Of course Fonco Creative, who
built our fantastic set.
00:00:31
TOM MERRITT: Oh my gosh, yeah.
00:00:31
Martin and Fon, all those
folks are great.
00:00:33
Also thanks to Pixel Corps who's
doing all the shooting
00:00:35
and producing for us here.
00:00:36
VERONICA BELMONT: Mm hmm.
00:00:36
Geek and Sundry for making
the whole thing happen.
00:00:38
TOM MERRITT: Oh, we couldn't
have done it without you.
00:00:39
And of course the audience,
those who watched us before in
00:00:44
I guess they didn't watch
us in audio form.
00:00:45
But now you're watching
us, and thanks.
00:00:47
Thanks for being here.
00:00:48
VERONICA BELMONT: So something
you audio podcast listeners
00:00:49
might be familiar with, this is
how we're going to kick off
00:00:52
the show this very first time.
00:00:53
It's our news from the science
fiction and fantasy world
00:00:56
called the Quick Burns.
00:01:00
Game of Thrones is two episodes
in on HBO, which
00:01:03
means we're dying for them to
release the announced book
00:01:05
called Inside HBO's Game of
Thrones, written by the show's
00:01:09
keeper of mythos, Bryan
Cogman with a preface
00:01:12
by George RR Martin.
00:01:13
The 192-page guide mixes
fictional background details
00:01:16
with behind-the-scenes
information, maps, family
00:01:19
trees, and interviews
with cast members.
00:01:21
You'll have to wait
until almost
00:01:23
winter to get it, though.
00:01:23
It comes out September 19 from
Chronicle Books in the US.
00:01:27
But don't worry.
00:01:28
Winter is coming, eventually.
00:01:31
TOM MERRITT: Last Saturday,
April 7, the 2012 Hugo award
00:01:34

the World Science Fiction
00:01:37
Best novel nominations went to
George RR Martin, James SA
00:01:40
Corey, China Mieville, Mira
