That is an interesting echo — as Xavier is stepping into…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfTcNb104NI What would you say is the power in this show’s particular brand of sci-fi spy fiction? I’ve been a fan of espionage fiction since I was 13. I started reading James Bond, and then as I got older I read more complex stuff, so I was a fan of Le Carré. I was…
