This week we ramp up the action with Boss Battle: Feyre v Worm! FeyFey has to flex intellectual and regular muscles to survive task one, and that fight is a doozy! We get our weekly dose of Lucien help early but also are called upon by an unlikely savior: Rhysand!
After she survives the worm, Feyyre is almost undone by dirty water and overcooked lentils, but so far so good! Your humble podcast hosts discuss the important issues: How much is Tamlin packing, and whether the good people of Barstow should be so maligned!?!
Come writhe in the mud with us, I promise its mostly poop free! Chunk 9 of ACoTaR starts....RIGHT NOW!!

This week, Feyre learns what happened to her erstwhile lover, and it ain't Anthony good! We FINALLY get the expedition we've been craving and there's some good stuff!
Amarantha is our antihumanist bad guy, she's the one who cursed the Spring Court, and committed war crimes during the battles so long ago. And now Feyre needs to take the fight to get Under the Mountain.
We find out that Feyre has been lied to for months and while she doesn't care it certainly bothers this humble podcast host.
I'll never lie to you about the danger a thousand year old villain poses to your small village so come on in, chunk 8 of ACoTaR starts.... RIGHT NOW!

SERIOUS TRIGGER WARNING THIS WEEK: Lots of interactions wander in SA territory and its not great.
Feyre begins to paint and finally enjoy her new life in Prythian. Not coincidentally, she also opens herself up and get closer to Tam, and its great to see her happy!
However, things take a serious left turn as we approach Calanmai, a High Fae ritual holiday. Though the High Lord does warn off our narrator, she predictably ignores his warnings. Less predictably, she gets cornered three separate times in very yikes-ey situations, and it is a tough read.
Take the good with the bad. Chunk five of ACoTaR starts RIGHT NOW!!!

This week we dance around a bit but all paths lead to the same truth: Feyre is not alone in her suffering! Alis, Tamlin, the unnamed flying faerie, and Lucion all have their damage.
First, Feyre lets Tamlin in, then we are all witness to a brutal death, then we pop into a spring of sunshine to wash off our tears.
Im not quite fully hooked, but its a GREAT week of character interactions. I promise i wont leave my jeweled dagger in your back! Chunk four of ACoTaR starts RIGHT NOW!!!

Turns out dad was a trick. This week we get the great expo dump! Its still pretty engaging but this week is clearly all about conveying sorely needed information to the audience. We learn about the 7 courts of Prythian and the scary big bad island of Hybern.
We also learn just who this Tamlin guy is, and that reveal doubles as Josh's first correct theory of the podcast!!
Feyre tries to learn to read and also learns to get into real trouble! She also does some cool ninja moves to fight off some bad guys! What a week!
I wont strand you on an island and feed you lotus flowers for seven years, so come on in! Chunk 3 of A Court of Thorns and Roses starts.....RIGHT NOW!!

This week we arrive in Prythean and boy is it spooky. Sniffing sprites, misogynistic courtiers and crazy scary Bogges dot the map in Fairyville. But at least the eating is good!
While I love Lucien, Feyre has a ways to go before he wins her over--and vice versa. We also learn the identity, sort of, of our beastial captor. Tamlin is a Fae Lord of some sort, but mysteries ABOUND!
Lyssy is back from Thailand and my computer sorta works. Chunk 2 starts RIGHT NOW!

In episode one we meet our narrator and her god-awful family and get vibes from a number of beloved pieces of media from Hunger Games, to Schitts Creek, and of course we bring it back to Dresden too.
We are introduced to a whole new world of humans seemingly oppressed by fairies, mercenaries, giant wolves, High Fae, and all sorts of trouble. Cant wait to dig in more!
We have been travelling like crazy for work and otherwise so please excuse our weeks old pop commentary.
