About this episode

The episode discusses the book 'SET PIECE' and its themes, including the absence of Sutekh and character details.

Is it a good thing to have a book that teases the return of Sutekh and never features Sutekh? (Come to think of it, is it a good thing to have an episode that features the return of Sutekh?)

Come join Tony Whitt, Alyson Fitch-Safreed, and Dalton Hughes, as they ask these questions and more discussing Kate Orman’s SET PIECE!
