I read the ending of Golden Sun right before I started a shift at work and I could NOT stop thinking about it the whole day. Such an amazing book. And I’m loving Morning Star right now
I started reading this series because of Mike, since I had no expectations going in I enjoyed Red Rising, but Golden Son did blow me away. I loved it so much and all the twists and turns kept shocking me. Roque broke my heart. Really enjoyed watching you guys talking about it because as someone else commented, I have no friends who read so no one to gush over books with. Will continue to read the series one book a month with Mike to watch these episodes as they come out. Keep up the great content guys.
Loved the episode and this collaboration. As someone who doesnt have friends that read listening to this helps me digest and process what I read. I hope you continue doing this with this series 🙏
It’s annoying. As someone who is reading them through for the first time she is REALLY bad at shutting up. It’s like she read the books a long time ago and is trying to remember what happened in what book and spilling things along the way 🤦♂️. It sucks cause I love these discussions but she is so damn bad.
thing is I'm super perceptive and really don't want someone who has no self control to spoil something or hint at it, so could you tell me how much she potentially spoils the next few books?
@@wolfpecker5710so then watch the pod after you’ve read them. i get it but if it’s that much of an issue there’s plenty of RR content that is 100% spoiler free
Watching this after literally turning the final page an hour ago. Really need some levity to pick my jaw from the floor 😂😂. Loved hearing you guys talking about it as enthusiastically as I felt about it 🐺🐺🐺👍🏻🇬🇧
That ending Mike OMG!!!! S#!@ got dark real quick. Thank you for recommending this, it’s probably up in the top 5 series I’ve ever read and I only finished book 2.
Besides Severo, Ragnar is my favorite side character. You called Eloran Lorne to Christopher Ruochiio?! How dare?!😂 I can definitely see the comparison to him in the early sun eater books. I love that character.
I read these as Morning Star was coming out. It was a great ending that had me afraid to start Iron Gold and beyond. I've recently started Iron Gold to catch up on the rest of the saga.
Golden Son is my favourite. I loved Morning Star too but it wrecked my emotions- too much of a rollercoaster! Empire Strikes Back is also my favourite Star Wars film (though I was salty at Boba Fett for a very long time when I was young for shipping off my man in carbonite). I see a lot of Leia in Mustang. She’s got the brains and the leadership qualities, not afraid to get her hands dirty in a fight and gets the guy from the wrong side of Mars/galaxy 😂
A bit of a spoiler but its a point that always annoyed me. There is a part where he is explaining how Aja was Lorns greateat student and taught her the razor. Then he says, but he didnt teach her everything. I always had that line in the back of my head for their eventual face off but it literally never comes up again and Aja ia just this terminator foe the entire series with no weaknesses.
Just finished Golden Son and I'm so glad you mentioned that we don't fine out how the hackle knew until the next book became i was so afraid I missed something somehow.
I just reread the ending 4 times because you implied I missed the jackal admitting killing Quinn...only to find out I got SPOILED...and I could not care less 😉 Thank you so much for this wonderful stream. Really nice way to come of the hype of reading this book 😊

So much anxiety listening to Erin try and avoid spoilers. Lol

Watching you talk about these books is so infectious, that I'm thinking of rereading the series too (even though I read it about a year ago)

The end where Roque kisses Darrow on the head gave me serious Godfather 2 vibes between Michael and Fredo!
Fitchner became my favorite character in this book 😢

Which hit yall more? The end of Golden Son or the Red Wedding?
Now ive finished the book i can finally watch this!!
Great discussion, I love Golden Son!

I think my biggest "of course Fitchner is Ares" is their family name, Barca. Like Hamilcar and Hannibal.
I thought the same thing when Darrow got pee'd on , seems like a wierd Pierce fetish lol. Gave a whole new meaning to the name "golden son"
DUDE i too thought as blues, specifically Orion, as nebula from guardians. cool
I read these as Morning Star was coming out. It was a great ending that had me afraid to start Iron Gold and beyond. I've recently started Iron Gold to catch up on the rest of the saga.
Dark Age alone makes it worth it. What a book
Golden Son is my favourite. I loved Morning Star too but it wrecked my emotions- too much of a rollercoaster!
Empire Strikes Back is also my favourite Star Wars film (though I was salty at Boba Fett for a very long time when I was young for shipping off my man in carbonite).

I just finished golden sun 5 minutes ago 😩😩
Thats like putting your d in beartrap...you always learn something new 😆
Iron Rain is pretty much identical to Starship Troopers (book not movie).
I can see this, actually
how did y’all not talk about darrow and mustangs scene
Anybody know where Mike got his mug? I'm sure this has been answered before, apologies.
