Dedication
This episode is dedicated to the memory of my friend James Bortak, who in high school, introduced me to the wonders of Guy Gavriel Kay’s works, and shared with me many brunches, games of chess, and cups of Twinings black currant tea, over which we discussed the stories and the magic of the world of the Fionavar Tapestry.
You are missed, Jim. I hope wherever you are, your resounding laugh and brilliant soul are bringing happiness to those around you, and that you know great peace. If we see one another again someday, I hope we can brew another cup, set the pieces on the board, and let the intellectually stimulating conversation begin again.
With love,
Daniel
