In Water Ending (Return to Silent Hill - Part 3)

Oh it's Bioshock (Tex Murphy: Under a Killing Moon - Part 3)
With the eugenics and the Ayn Rand of it all. Honestly they don't reference Rand, that would probably make it more clever.

One of our earliest author interviews was with William C. Dietz author of Halo: The Flood and a number of other video game novelizations as well as a large catalogue of his own work. Bill passed away on March 15th and in lieu of our normal episode we decided to record an intro and replay the old episode that we did interviewing him. Rest in peace Bill.

Daybreak of War: The End (Warhammer 40000:Dawn of War - Part 3)
The war ended just after dawn so the Space Marines could drink their juice boxes and have healthy snacks.
Book Synopsis
The Bone Ravens, Space Marine warriors with near superhuman strength, are sent to destroy the planet Cyrene and its heretical populace, but one of the warriors, Brother-Captain Angelos, is faced with a difficult choice because Cyrene is his own native world.

We move on to the second story in the book, The Manchurian Gambit written by Michael B. Lee! This one has it all, kidnappings, kidnappings, double crosses, another kidnapping I think? And a trip to the Marshall Islands!
I'm a sucker for these kinds of pure adventure stories so we are having a good time with this one. In this episode we read the novella by Eric Nylund set in the Crimson Skies universe (which seems like it is fresh for revisting to be honest).
