Interview with George R.R. Martin and Christopher Paolini

Suvudu.com — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 16:10:00 EST

During San Diego Comic Con 2011, Matt Staggs interviewed both George R.R. Martin and Christopher Paolini together for the podcast you hear here.

Of the interview, Matt writes: I'd be tempted to say that I moderated this interview, but frankly, neither man needed any real guidance from me. Some writers need a little prompting or guidance from their interviewers. Such was not the case with Martin and Paolini. They took my questions and ran with them, often taking their deeper implications to places that I had not even considered.
