“Fly, Dragonlord, Fly!”

“Fly, Dragonlord, Fly” is an amazing tale of the power of football and the love of fantasy fiction to transcend the racial barriers that high schoolers errect between themselves. Humorous, heartfelt, you’ll be rooting for these characters even if you don’t know a quarterback from a tight end or a draconian from a dragonlord.

Anyways, this amazing movie is bookended in something called the “Le Guin Unit”? Which itself is a deep dive into Le Guin’s Earthsea novels? And is merely a part of a podcast called “Shelved by Genre”, which combines literary and political analysis with humor to make sense of the worlds created by 20th century sci-fi and fantasy authors?

Maybe. I don’t remember. I just know that I want that Dragonlord jersey.

SwagMaster Snazzy ,

Wow!

That really was a Book of the new sun!

Jamd1sk ,

Funny and insightful!

Three friends who are much smarter than I am unpacking books I don’t have the attention span to read, yet am fascinated by.
