Ultimately, the story carries itself forward on a wave of old-fashioned heroics. -- James Roberts

Closure doesn’t exist outside of fiction. Life is a messy succession of changes, some incremental, some sudden, and everyone moves at different speeds; only in fiction do we get the satisfying (if fundamentally dishonest) neatness of a synchronised ending. Think of the last episode of a TV show in which, over the course of an afternoon, the core cast members variously marry, move to a new city, find their long-lost adopted son and, in at least three separate instances, get their comeuppance. Spoiler alert for any non-grown-ups reading this: life, sadly, isn’t like that. -- James Roberts

If there’s a theme to LL it’s made explicit in 24 (and 25): you have value; learn to love yourself. -- James Roberts

Megatron’s responsible, directly and indirectly, for the deaths of literally billions of innocent people. It’s interesting – in real life, I can’t imagine what it would take for the wider world to show even a modicum of forgiveness and understanding towards a convicted mass murderer/despot/war criminal. I can’t think of mitigating circumstances compelling enough for the man on the street – much less the victims of said criminal – to say, ‘He’s not all bad.’ You could find out that the criminal suffered as a child, or started off on the road to his future crimes with the best of intentions, or whatever, but I doubt it would be enough to even partly rehabilitate him in the eyes of the public. And yet… in the world of fiction, things can be a little different. -- James Roberts

Events of the last six years build to a frenzy of revelations, casting everything that's gone before in a new -- and deadly -- light. No exaggeration, no hyperbole: there has never been a more important issue of Lost Light. -- James Roberts

This issue it’s all about mood; heart-swelling, happy-sad and sweetly elegiac. Enjoy. -- James Roberts
