    Book Thirteen, Part Three: Chapter 31 to the End of Chapter 47 | Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson
    Nov 15 2024
    Are you ready for all the action? Your Queens of Fantasy are back, and they're diving into part three of book 13. Queens Marissa and Tay argue over exactly how much dislike of Gawyn is appropriate, Queen Alix bites her tongue while trying not to accidentally spoil the ending that we're so close to, and each of the Queens is baffled by what counts as a proposal in Randland. Expect to read about one man's fight to stay alive, another man's dream of a beautiful woman, and Suian... who happened to have some very good soup. In other words, listen in as the Queens discuss Chapter 31 to the end of Chapter 47 of Book Thirteen of The Wheel of Time, Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson.This episode ends with a game we're calling Name That Playlist. We've got the emo hits, Lan's smexy time songs, Mat's lucky station, and even a few callouts to Mr. Dark One. We end with Tay and Marissa ranking the current list of characters and talking over who performed and who truly did not. Content Warnings:Please take care of yourself.

    Book Thirteen, Part Two: Chapter 16 to End of Chapter 30 | Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson
    Nov 11 2024
    The Queens are at it again, this time reading part 2 of book 13. Queens Marissa and Tay argue over exactly how bad Gawyn is. Queen Al manages to hold her tongue, even as the other two get closer and closer to the end. Expect new Aes Sedai tests, old rivalries, a growing disdain for a certain Queen who cannot be stopped, a lingering question of where their goofy rogue went off to, and a budding romance that no one wants to read about. In other words, listen in as the Queens discuss Chapter 16 to the end of Chapter 30 of Book Thirteen of The Wheel of Time, Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson.This episode ends with a game of Travel Itineraries, in which the Queens suggest where your next Randland vacation could take place. Then Tay and Marissa slot those characters into their ranking lists, and the newest character to scrape the bottom of the list might even surprise you.Content Warnings:Please take care of yourself.
