Send us a text


Join us for a captivating episode as we sit down with Kenneth
Hite, a renowned writer and role-playing game designer. We will
be treated to David Pickering's complete narration of "Who Fired
the Phoenix?" This intriguing story was originally published in
Asimov's in May 1981 and is part of the Adventures in Unhistory
collection. At the end of the interview with Ken, we will also
have the privilege of hearing Avram himself narrating the story,
although, unfortunately, the narration is not complete.


Kenneth Hite is well-known for his significant contributions to
role-playing games, including Trail of Cthulhu and Night's Black
Agents, and for his lead role in designing the 5th edition of
Vampire: the Masquerade.
