What ever happened to Part 2?

Appreciate the great discussion

Well I read the book and I've listened to your (appreciated) recap and I still don't know what's going on. I struggled through not knowing who anyone is in the hope that there will be a pay off in the next book. I doubt it though. The problem was, the more muddy and confusing it became the more the chapters passed without my full attention and it spiraled from there.

Did the podcast stop?😢

That Shallan chapter with the shadows was so cool, one of my favourite parts of the whole book!

Thank you for the discussion , I really enjoyed

Love this! And yes, smash. 100%

Can you please tag the people you are doing the episodes with so that I can find them?

Thank you for the recap ❤

I was hoping to see where you would rate the Percy Jackson series. Also is there a list of all the books and the rankings. It's hard with the picture of book covers.

i would’ve loved a longer book for a tad bit more clarification. thanks for getting me prepped for book 2. i waited too long to pick the next one up.

Amos calls her Peaches because she used the name Melba. There is a dessert called Peach Melba.

I just started this series, beginning with Gardens of the moon, and I feel this meme is talking to me in a personal level of not complaining about the beginning of the series 😂😂😂

the two children in the lab have a short story, they weren't exactly a random inclusion. but i'm not sure if you guys read the short stories

18:04

Woohoo you're back!

Another great series, but what happens to the Malazan run-through?

Yes! I was hoping you guys would help everyone prepare for Stormlight 5. I miss the Monday Morning Minute, but also totally understand that you guys are very busy.

Watching your doors and corners basically means don’t rush head first into situations. Watch, plan, and be ready.

Huge fan of this series shout out to all the artist

Thanks!❤

And marry,pippin. Facts.

An ascendant can become a god but they are not gods by default. I could go further in depth, but those are spoilers for books after the 10 book series. Also, gods tend to have worshippers.

He was hit on the 19th damn. I think he also wrote DK the first at 19. I believe he says it the foreword

Evnis set it up so that it was just the queen and Edana in the forest. Initially, Brenin was going to be there with them but he managed to manipulate it so that Brenin was absent. Also at that point, they believed they had cleared the Darkwood of the bandits as they had gone into hiding, but they returned with support from Brin's champion.

Do you wish you read this after 4? Or are you happy reading it at the end. I just finished book 3 and am trying to decide when to read this or if I do at all. Thanks

I just finished the book series and loved it. This playlist seems like a good way to experience it vicariously through other people.

I needed this discussion. Love the book but jeez theres so much to take in! The fight scenes felt a bit like a Bernard Cornwell fight scene which i enjoy.

I don't have your names down pat yet, but you with the glasses - you seem super uncomfortable about sex. I don't really understand why it affects people that way; it's been going on for as long as there have been people. It's a natural part of things - we don't need to be ashamed of it and hide it away. Just FYI, I may be basing that on not only this video but also the one on The Gunslinger - I just now you've made to remarks that went down that same road.

bro the fact that you finished inheritance right when murtagh was announced is wild, been waiting years for it lmaoo

Yeah, Roland's attraction to Sylvia was weird - I think the idea that she housed a succubus must be right. Because physically her description didn't seem attractive AT ALL.

Oh, please don't get all sensitive about the sex. That's one of the worst piles of poo we've fallen into as a culture. It's really not that big of a deal - it's just another need we have, like the need to eat, or breathe. And like all of those things, it can be overdone. When kept in balance it's a fine thing; let it get out of hand it it's a vice. And yes - Allie convinces HIM; she knew what she wanted. She was LONELY. It made total sense.

30:06 - LMAO... I like you guys; I really do. Be careful, though... big ideas you're dancing around here.

The thing is, though, he puts that "On Being Nineteen" preface in EVERY BOOK, and you really only need to read it once. 🙂

29:09 - Resumption.

The ending was GREAT, and I don't see any other way it could have ended that would have had any "significance" at all.

Oh, the mescaline was GREAT! And that wasn't THAT weird - the idea that mescaline "opens up your mind" is pretty reasonable actually. And yes - he WAS carrying that pill around for ages and ages. It did seem to be the only one he had, though, and we have no information at all on how he got it.

Devil grass is something else. It kills you - weed doesn't do that. It clearly has its own set of symptoms, which may INCLUDE some of the effects of smoking weed. But it does awful, nasty things to you too, that THC doesn't.

One thing that becomes evident later is that the world is spreading out. Places are becoming physically further apart, and given the slow ways they have to travel (mostly), that makes getting around take a lot of time. I think it ties in an interesting way to the expansion of the universe in our real world. Galaxies are pulling away from each other, but stars in galaxies are not - the gravity is strong enough to overcome the expansion. Our bodies aren't growing larger - the chemical bonds that hold us together are REALLY strong enough to block the expansion. But imagine that expansion force grew more aggressive. Push it far enough, and you could imagine (if you squint) the world getting bigger but us not. And in the series this is a symptom of things "moving on."

The Crimson King is not "God." God is called "Gan" in the series. Definitely a distinct character from the Crimson King. In some sense the Tower "belongs to Gan," but I suspect everything and everyone that exists is part of Gan, so in that sense it belongs to all of them.

I think the tower is just the "seed pod" from which everything that exists grew. All worlds connect there, all minds connect there. Think Jung's collective unconscious, etc. It's the Tower that ties all those things together. If something happened to it, all that - everything that exists - would end.

I found that conversation between the man in black and Roland fascinating. Particularly the way it seemed like to some extent the man in black was COMPELLED to share certain insights with Roland. It wasn't at ALL like he "wanted to help" Roland - in fact, he wants the exact opposite. He is committed to Roland's failure. But evidently there are "rules," and I'd have loved to have learned more about those.

Roland's quest goes beyond just getting the people who caused hte problem. His dedication to that goal could be thought of as a strength, but his quest is also a weakness. He also hungers to have the secrets of the Dark Tower revealed to him. To him personally - not so he can accomplish something, but simply because he wants to know and feels he's worthy to know. It's a sin of pride. I won't say more here, since this video is only on The Gunslinger and not the whole series, but I think the whole thing makes great sense when looked at in a particular way.

How did Jake get there? Magic. The man in black cast a spell and it drew Jake there. You're right about the pathos of the world, but it hadn't always been like that. Even Roland remembered the final days of the glory that had come before. It becomes clear by book seven what's going on - (spoilers) the world is being deliberately "damaged" on an ongoing basis. It's stretching out, slowing down, coming unglued.

The people (me) are saying they would go bananas for a sci-fi series list

You guys may not have a lot of views, but you're certainly appreciated. Nice to hear others talk about the books instead of reading reddit posts and watching summaries.

I know you said a Stephen King tier ranking is coming soon on the podcast. Is that still something to look forward to?

More RUclips PLEASE

Just finished the book an hour ago. What a ride. Loved your reviews on the series, thanks for putting out this great content! ❤

No heros, no ladies no bad bad guys is the real fantasy... extraordinary. Not for everyone, 90% like sanderson good vs bad books.
