Hello all! We are so happy to be back as it's been a long lay-off. So in our return, we will release two episodes we recorded ages ago discussing book 1 from the Wheel of Time, The Eye of the World! This is important because we are about to watch the premiere and release our reaction episodes. So first! Here is our book-only discussion. Also, we did record this some time ago so we apologize for the audio quality blip. That won't be the case for our reaction episodes every week!

Hello all! We are so sorry for taking this long to get these episodes out. I cannot even describe the events in life that delayed these episodes, but we are back in action. And don’t worry our Mistborn series is continuing! We are recorded and ready to release those as well, but first we wanted to release this very special episode on the Wolf and The Woodsman by Ava Reid. It is important for us to support new (and especially good) authors. So when the chance came for us to read this book and even interview the author we had to jump at it. In this episode, we discuss the awesome dreamlike fantasy novel The Wolf and The Woodsman. Next episode we hope the Author Ava Reid herself will join us, so if you have any questions make sure to comment either on our YouTube page on the podcast page so we can relay those questions.

Hello all, here is the very final discussion on Rhythm of War and the book's end by Brandon Sanderson. That is until the "Brett Bet" episodes hit again or we do a revisit on the book.

I have to say this is a very hard episode. Not because we didn’t have a fun recording session, but I am releasing on a day we lost somebody very special to us. I realized though, that it is during times like this that remind us so much of the pain, hardship, and growth of the characters we follow in these stories, that we should observe the real-world lessons they learn. And it is in these very times that smiles are needed more than ever. The impact and humor that influenced our lives will always be there, and as the Edgedancers would say, should never be forgotten.
