Dissecting Dragons
Authors J.A. Ironside and M.E. Vaughan talk about books, films and all aspects of speculative
fiction, from the nuts and bolts of writing it, to its (occasionally) obscure
origins.
Episode 1 - Rags to Rebel leaders - the re-emergence of the Fairy Tale looks at the origin of speculative fiction in oral tales and how
those tales are being adapted for new generations and genres. Books and films
discussed include Angela Carter’s The Bloody Chamber, A
Court of Thorns and Roses by
Sarah J. Maas and the new Disney Cinderella.
