If you like superheroes–and even if you’re not all that impressed by them, like me–there’s a darned good chance you’ll like Mur Lafferty’s podcast novel, Playing for Keeps.

(Did I just say “darned”? I can promise that no one in my own novels has ever said “darned”.)

I was going to put the audio promo up here, but wordpress says that I can’t do that unless I pay them something, so umm.. love you Mur, but here’s the link instead:
Playing for Keeps Promo

And then you can just click the play button and hear what it’s about.

Or, you can read what it’s about, right here:

Playing for Keeps is a free novel delivered via podcast in audio and PDF form. It tells the story of Keepsie Branson, a bar owner in the shining metropolis of Seventh City: birthplace of super powers. Keepsie and her friends live among egotistical heroes and manipulative villains, and manage to fall directly in the middle as people with powers, but who just aren’t strong enough to make a difference. Or that’s what they’ve been told. As the city begins to melt down, it’s hard to tell who are the good guys and who are the bad.

And then you can go listen to the first episode right now!

And you thought your Saturday night would be boring.
