We're rereading Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series of fantasy novels! Why? Because they're so much fun! We recap the events of the story as we go, so you don't have to read along unless you want to. These books are pretty great already, but what we add is a lot of jokes of varying hilarity, and a little insight. We have a great time recording these and we hope you'll have a great time listening. Join us!

We spend a lot of time watching Moiraine and Verin, neither of whom does much worth mentioning. So forget that sentence. Perrin meets Aviendha, who is pretty cool.

With time growing short, the party turns to the Ways to reach the Eye of the World in time. The Ways are quite nice, if you like pitch blackness and gibbering madness creatures hounding you to death. They do make it to Fal Dara, where they find out just exactly who this Lan guy is. Your hosts are Jeff Lake, Micah Sparkman, and Alice Sullivan. Suppo…

Rand and Mat hitchhike to Caemlyn, and are accosted by darkfriends at almost every stop. It's enough to make a man suspicious. They do make it to Caemlyn, where Thom's name opens some doors for them (and slams shut others). Your hosts are Jeff Lake, Micah Sparkman, and Alice Sullivan. Support us at armadillo.club!
