The Cold War gets magical when spies brush shoulders with sorcerers in this genre-defying serial created by Lindsay Smith and Max Gladstone.
This is the 9th episode in the second season of The Witch Who Came In From The Cold, a 13-episode serial from Serial Box Publishing. This episode written by Ian Tregillis.
As the smoke slowly dissipates from the explosive dockside firefight, Edith and Josh seeks answers and explanations. With the Ice on their heels, Terzian turns the Flames attention to a new target. Van and Nadia cross words, and truths. Tanya plays a player.
Welcome to Prague, 1970: the epicenter in a Cold War of spies and sorcerers. The streets are a deadly chessboard on which the CIA and KGB make their moves, little dreaming that a deeper game is being played between the Consortium of Ice and the Acolytes of Flame, ancient factions of sorcery.

Too much going on to be completely satisfied with this one (as in, I'm annoyed I have to wait a week for it to continue). Edith at least got someone to give her the basics of what was going on. Poor Josh.

April 21, 2017As one would expect with such a project, the quality of the writers varies a bit. There isn't a bad one in the bunch, but to my estimate it ranges from competent to excellent. But the one writer who I think has been consistently great through both seasons is Ian Tregillis, who has delivered a brilliant piece full of great atmosphere, crips dialigue and fresh, striking imagery with each installment of his.
And Aftermath is no exception - while I usually burn through each episode, turning pages quickly to find out what is happening next, those by Ian Tregillis I force myself to read slowly, to savour his wonderful prose. Admittedly, that usually only lasts until about halfway point, then I get carried away by events and keep gulping down the rest, but even so... Tregillis is an outstanding writer who I really need to read more of.
