The Morning Afterlife by Sonnet O’Dell: If remembering could bring about the end of everything, would you still try? Karrin wakes up on the side of the road with selective memory loss; she knows her name and age but nothing more about herself. She walks the highway back to a town to find all but a few people have disappeared and that there are strange but beautiful beings hunting them down. It seems to her that some great apocalyptic event happened but she just doesn’t remember it. Karrin however is in more danger than she realizes as someone in her new group of friends is more deadly to her than those hunting them down. When she finds one of them, a young man roughly her own age named Gabe injured, she goes against all she’s been told and helps him. Gabe in return wants to help her, help her to remember. Karrin’s memories, however, could put her in even more danger and bring an end to everything she now holds dear.

Highly entertaining interview. I became a fan of Walton’s work because of Among Others and have enjoyed her posts for Tor.com. Had to laugh at her thoughts about why someone would buy a book comprised of stuff that is online for free, especially because one of those who will pick it up on release week is me. Look at Scalzi, he’s sold how many copies of books that are compilations of post free online? Quite a few.
There are few people as entertaining to read when they are talking about reading than Jo Walton. Great job all!
