Another book: completed! The Queens finish reading book 5, The Fires of Heaven, in Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time series, and they have a lot of thoughts. The Queens battle out theories while the characters fight in too many battles to count. Be prepared to (maybe) wave goodbye to a beloved character – as well as several forsaken – and also say hello to the benefits of balefire. Queen Marissa shares a personal story that connects her to Nynaeve, Queen Tay rages against the decreasing stakes, and both Queens spout theory after theory. You can find Queen Alix tuning out the other two to prevent from spoiling anything. Expect these readers to talk about the Hulk, appropriate adjectives for bosoms, when to stop being nice to strangers, and the religious symbolism in this fifth book. In other words, join along as the Queens of this podcast discuss and analyze Chapter 43 to the end of Book Five of The Wheel of Time, The Fires of Heaven, by Robert Jordan.
At the end of the podcast, Queens Tay and Marissa share their review of the book, as well as the current character rankings. And, we finish off with a game about the character's zodiac signs!
