Episode Thirty Eight - Gerard Brennan & Craig Sisterson

Two Crime Writers And A Microphone

It’s where it’s at!

Steve Cavanagh and Luca Veste present a brand new podcast for readers and writers which will bring you the latest news in the book world, interviews with the best writers, agents, publicists, editors, and literary agents in the business. Also, each week we'll hear from some of the best book reviewers around, who'll give us their reads of the week.

This week, the crime writerly duo discuss publishing summer parties, the Scouse Baldwin brothers, which McGann is which, Super Thursday, 505 hardbacks in one day, Famous Five legal wrangles, and have some fun with the oddest book title of the year award. Warning - the word "nipples" features heavily.

In reviewer's corner, it's the return of Craig Sisterson! He gives sterling reviews for The Late Show by Michael Connolly and Trust No One by Paul Cleave.

Special guest this week is Gerard Brennan! He talks about becoming a doctor, writing short stories and how they differ to novels, shares an exclusive audio extract, talks about his work being published in Germany before the UK, McGregor vs Mayweather, and whether a MMA star has any chance against an elite boxer in the ring.

In the wrap-up, upcoming events starring the two crime writers are shared...
