Marginally Geeky Show

by Epically Geeky

The epically geeky book club. Join the Marginally Geeky crew as they read, share and discuss a new book each month. While we may focus on traditionally geeky genres (sci-fi, fantasy, etc.) we're willing to explore any and all things geeky!

Episodes

Ep 60 - Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone

56m · Published 02 May 05:01

We’ve been doing this geeky book club for over two years and we are just now doing a Harry Potter book. We should be ashamed… but we’re not. So let us jump into the flagship book that launched a tidal wave of copy cats and reshaped not only how the book industry looked at YA fiction, but also created an entire media empire that is still beloved by the fans to this day; even if the author isn’t.

Next books will be:

May - Where the Dear and the Antelope Play by Nick Offerman

June - Infinite by Jeremy Robinson

July - Half Share by Nathan Lowell

August - Ravenport by Nathan Lowell

Host: Eugene Stephens

Guest: Kris Andrew, Ray Andrew, Shaun McLaren

Ep 59 - New Spring

59m · Published 04 Apr 05:01

The Wheel of Time series started in 1984, spanned 14 books and was recently adapted into a series on Amazon Prime. So of course it has a prequel; everything that has that much story to tell has even more to tell right? In New Spring, we meet some of main characters, see how they met and set us up for the massive journey ahead. The question is, unlike many other prequels, is it any good?

Ep 58 - Quarter Share

1h 10m · Published 07 Mar 06:01

This month we start on a series Shaun introduced us to that immediately grabbed us and wouldn’t let go. Quarter Share, the first in the Trader’s Tale from The Golden Age of the Solar Clipper (that’s a mouth full), follows a Ishmael Wong as he gets a job on a space faring trading ship and grows into the position. Along the way he finds he enjoys the work, his co-workers and his new life. That’s it. No space battles or aliens trying to kill everyone. Sounds rather mundane… and you’ll love every minute of it.

March - New Spring by Robert Jordan

Ep 56 - The Wizards Butler

1h 4m · Published 06 Dec 06:01

Butler isn’t a job title most people would consider in this day and age. But tie the job to a 1 year contract, $5,000 a month and a cool million on completion and a lot of people might jump at it. But what if the old man you are taking care of thinks he is a wizard? What if he really is? This month we are reading The Wizard’s Butler by Nathan Lowell. We were a little late getting this one recorded and had already planned on taking off the month of December, so count this as an early Christmas present. Our next books will be:

January - Braided Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

February - Quarter Share by Nathan Lowell

Ep 54 - Salems Lot

1h 4m · Published 04 Oct 05:01

How have we gone 54 episodes of a geeky book club and not read a book by Stephen King yet? This month, we correct that oversight. And what better time to read a book by the modern day master of horror than to setup for Halloween! So when Mr. King asked himself, “what would Bram Stoker’s Dracula be like set in modern times (1970’s), “ the outcome was Salem’s Lot. Grab a stake and some holy water, the time of vampires is upon us. Our next books will be:

October - Angel Killer by Andrew Mayne

November - The Wizard’s Butler - Nathan Lowell

January - Braided Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

Ep 53 - Project Hail Mary

1h 5m · Published 06 Sep 05:01

Andy Weir blew everyone away with his first book The Martian. So when his newest book was a return to space, we were excited to read it. But it wasn’t what we were expecting… in a great way. This month, we’re reading Project Hail Mary and discussing why it felt so much like one of our favorite book series; for obvious reasons. Our next book will be Salem’s Lot by Stephen King.
