Podfic: The City and Star Island Line

[altariel]

I have committed more podfic. The City and Star Island Line by maelipstick: "Faramir tells a ghost story shortly after the war of the ring. Beware modern English and anachronisms as well as unexpected additions to the fauna of Middle earth. It's told in fun."

Probably my favourite story about Faramir and Eowyn, certainly the funniest story about the pyre that I've read. Very tender, very sweet, very witty. Download from here; read here.

Hello there! Welcome to the journal! I went and read your summary of your Baker marathon and you're doing a much classier job of writing up then we are! We are hugely enjoying rewatching Hartnell an episode a day (including listening to the audios of the missing episodes) - many of my assumptions and prejudices about the B&W era are being steadily dismantled.

(BTW, mraltariel and I also attended qatsi and kharin's civil partnership!)

Oh, did you? Ships that pass in the night, and all that...

I know exactly what you mean about the B&W era. I watched Hartnell's first three stories back in January too, before I got totally sucked into Bakersville, thinking that it would be more of a duty than a pleasure. But I am really looking forward to going back and carrying on now!

Not so sure about this - I really wish I could master the art of the short, pithy review in the way you obviously have. Mine always end up terribly long and involved - but then I do enjoy writing them, and people seem to read them all the same.

Well, looking forward to swapping notes as we go along!

Oh, you have a real treat coming with 'Marco Polo', and the audio narration is beautifully done.

On a Blake's 7 mailing list once we wrote haiku for all 52 episodes. Haven't tried that yet with Doctor Who!
