Hard science? Check.
Artificial intelligence? Check.
Octopode intelligence!? Check, check, check!

Intelligence and lack thereof permeate Ray Nayler’s debut novel, following scientists, hackers, delightfully adorable yet realistic cephalopods, and much, much more (maybe too much?) in this special, science fiction edition of the Apartment Library, a book club podcast created and nurtured by our unwavering love for literature. Join us as we embark on a literary journey to read together, discover new writers, and explore our beloved authors’ lesser known works. No book is too out there, no story too taboo. There will be summary, discussion, analysis, and swearing.
