In which the team try valiantly to determine what makes for a great
hero, how the nature of heroism has changed over time and what
makes a Hero attractive to read about -
in theory. And I did say 'try.'
It's a big subject (as usual) and we cover quite a bit of ground,
but we still manage to wander off topic, insert a certain vegetable
repeatedly and pin down the essential pork-pie-ness of Arathorn's
boy. Have a listen then let us know what you think on
the Geek Syndicate Facebook

Forgot to mention this in the podcast, but the David Gemmell Legend Awards for Fantasy
are currently running. They're down to a short list
and you could help swing things. Be sure to
go along and cast your vote.
Mr. TheCruel's mosaic-novel-in-progress can be found here if you fancy read along or getting
involved.
Finally, if anyone interested in hearing how Clover and Dion did on
their international debut you can hear the results on Geektress Episode 120 (and I can
heartily recommend their website for its
quirky humour.)
