MARS PIRATE RADIO

TONIGHT, Saturday July 28th at 8:00 PM EDT, Episode 142 of MPR will feature the first half of my July 16th interview with J. Neil Schulman. During this interview we discuss THE FRACTAL MAN, his newest SF novel. We also discuss at some length, the concept of the multiverse that is an important part feature of the novel, and how this concept fits into Schulman’s personal experience. It is quite a spirited discussion and I think you will enjoy it. Below is a link to Mars Pirate Radio.
