Detail of world-building and story structure

An interesting and detailed chat about Hamilton's 'Salvation' world and his story creation process: including dealing with multiple timelines, thinking about the use of technology, how he structures his writing, and a few of his characters.

Because of the detail, it will mostly be of interest to science fiction fans (and Hamilton fans in particular) - but if you're in that group, it will be fascinating and may lead you to jump into the Salvation series.
