Dearest Gentle Reader

The Radio Silence 10th anniversary special edition will feature an exclusive interview with Aled and Frances ten years after Aled began making the Universe City podcast.

YOU can ask them questions!

Perhaps you want to know what they've been up to since the events of Radio Silence... or perhaps you want to know the secrets of Universe City! What you ask is up to you, but what they answer will be up to them.

If your question is selected, your question will be credited with your social media handle. If you'd prefer to be anonymous, simply end your question with 'Anon'!

Questions that are very 'in character' will probably be more likely to be selected, so imagine a world where the Universe City podcast is real and the fandom is alive with theories and fun discourse... what would you ask the two creators who hardly ever give interviews?

Leave your questions for Aled and Frances in the replies!

I'm delighted to drop this new artwork, commissioned by the wonderful team at Del Rey Books to celebrate the upcoming release of AGNES AUBERT’S MYSTICAL CAT SHELTER by Heather Fawcett!

I was grateful to read an early copy from Del Rey Books to deep-dive into Heather's crafted new world, and I'm not exaggerating when I say this was my TOP read at the end of last year. This was the first time I've wanted a stand-alone to not be a stand-alone, as Agnes and Havelock and all of the shelter kitties are my new obsession.

In the book, Agnes Aubert is on the search for a new space after her cat shelter was collaterally damaged by a spontaneous magician's street duel. She ends up unwittingly leasing a new space from Havelock Renard, the First Dark Mage who infamously almost caused the apocalypse -- a worst case scenario for Agnes when magic is outlawed. Agnes is adamant on keeping her cats safe and her charity sensible, but soon her no-nonsense policies clash with Havelock's stubborn personality and his precarious dealings in magic, bringing the attention of the authorities and other unexpected magical dangers to her doorstep.

Please sit down and enjoy this cozy fantasy set in 1920's Montréal, packed with bejeweled magicians, magical pastries, and the ultimate cat distribution system!
