Between the years 1990 and 1992 Jack Dann had many conversations with American author, Lucius Shepard over the phone. This is an interview conducted during one of those calls and was never published. With the passing of Lucius late in 2014, Mr. Dann felt it was time to release this as a tribute to a life-long friend. This also contains an introduction by Mr. Dann that is heartfelt in the loss of this friend.
