#7 The Book That Wouldn't Burn: Chapter 18 - 35
Manage episode 430359165 series 3568858
Sam and Dan discuss chapters 18 - 35 of Mark Lawrence's The Book That Wouldn't Burn: the first instalment of The Library Trilogy.
SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers of the first half of this book. We strongly recommend reading the chapters we're covering before listening.
Now that our main characters have met, we discuss what we've learned and what their futures (or pasts... depending on where you're starting from) might hold. We try to figure out the motivations of some of our supporting characters, including Master Yute and his cryptic instructions to Livira. Maland, despite his complete absence from the story, presents a lot of mystery for us to theorise about. And, as usual, we throw around loads of theories about where this story is heading.
