Video: Why Dan Simmons Wrote Drood

Posted on February 26, 2009 by John DeNardo in Books // 4 Comments

Suvudu has a series of videos featuring Dan Simmons talking about Charles Dickens and his latest book, Drood. I’ve taken it upon my geeky self to assemble all 7 parts into a playlist, shown here for your enjoyment. Just sit back and each part will play automatically.

Great stuff.

OK now, JP, hurry up and finish it! 🙂

    Thanks, Paul.  I skimmed it (fear of spoilers, doncha know) and since I like Victorian fiction, you haven’t scared me off.  🙂

    I decided to be brutal and read The Terror and Drood back to back. Loved Drood, my review is here.I added the spectacular John Picacio cover pic as well.

    I haven’t posted one on The Terrot yet, cause I am still cogitating over it…which is one of the reasons I like Simmons’ books, no matter how long.
