Episode 668: The Year in Books with James Bradley and Ian Mond

  • Summary

  • For our year-end review of 2024 books, we’re joined once again by fellow Locus reviewer Ian Mond and distinguished critic and novelist James Bradley. As usual, we mention a lot of authors and titles, and probably forget to mention many deserving others. But you’ll no doubt find some suggestions you hadn’t thought of, and some of our usual digressions about familiar questions of genre, literary ambition, and books that at least some of us think have been overlooked.

    Ian's list

    We probably should have kept lists, but we did not. Ian did, though, and so that's provided to you with our thanks to him.
