Links mentioned during the show:
My Country is a Ghost - Eugenia Triantafyllou
“When Niovi tried to smuggle her mother’s ghost into the new country, she found herself being passed from one security officer to another, detailing her mother’s place and date of death over and over again.”
Six of Crows - Leigh Bardugo
“Joost had two problems: the moon and his mustache.”
It - Stephen King
“The terror, which would not end for another twenty-eight years—if it ever did end— began, so far as I know or can tell, with a boat made from a sheet of newspaper floating down a gutter swollen with rain.”
1984 - George Orwell
“It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.”
Rangers of the Witchwoods: Blood Witch – Nick Bright
“The trunk of a Witchwood creaked as a rock cougar jumped from tree to tree, silently chasing its prey, but the only thing that Theo could hear were the scratches of his own quill against parchment.
The Black Sun – Marshall Carr Jr.
“At first, the objects hitting the atmosphere and streaking through the Earth’s chemical layer looked like meteors.”
