Manda Scott and Any Human Power on Podcast Episode 213

This is the Books and Authors Fantasy and Sci-Fi Podcast Episode 213 with author Manda Scott. Welcome to the latest episode of the Books and Authors Fantasy and Sci-Fi Podcast! Co-hosted by Jamie Davis and Scott Walker, this podcast is exactly what the title says it is: a show focused on SF&F books and the authors creating them! We’ll cover Epic Fantasy, Urban Fantasy, Sword & Sorcery, and everything in between. Expect to find the best and brightest authors from all corners of the SF&F book world. Plus, we’ll add in a few other very special guests as well along the way. Learn more about Jamie’s author updates and books at JamieDavisBooks.com.

Our guest this week is author Manda Scott.   Born in Scotland at 318ppm CO2, author and podcaster, Manda Scott’s writing has spanned the eras from pre-Roman Britain with the Boudica: Dreaming series to the SOE/Maquis in WWII – and her latest novel, Any Human Power, looks forward to future five minutes from now. Previous works have been shortlisted for the Orange Prize, nominated for an Edgar and won the McIlvanney Prize. Co-creator of the Thrutopia Masterclass and host of the international chart-topping Accidental Gods podcast, Manda has a degree in veterinary medicine and an MA in Regenerative Economics. She lives with her wife on a smallholding in the liminal space where England meets Wales. Manda’s latest book, Any Human Power, explores the concepts of thrutopias, regenerative economics, intiation and trauma cultures and more, all while offering a roadmap to creating a future that we would be proud to leave to the generations to come.   Manda also hosts the podcast, Accidental Gods, and offers shamanic life courses at Dreaming Awake.
