Book Thirteen, Part Three: Chapter 31 to the End of Chapter 47 | Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson

Are you ready for all the action? Your Queens of Fantasy are back, and they're diving into part three of book 13. Queens Marissa and Tay argue over exactly how much dislike of Gawyn is appropriate, Queen Alix bites her tongue while trying not to accidentally spoil the ending that we're so close to, and each of the Queens is baffled by what counts as a proposal in Randland. Expect to read about one man's fight to stay alive, another man's dream of a beautiful woman, and Suian... who happened to have some very good soup. In other words, listen in as the Queens discuss Chapter 31 to the end of Chapter 47 of Book Thirteen of The Wheel of Time, Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson.

This episode ends with a game we're calling Name That Playlist. We've got the emo hits, Lan's smexy time songs, Mat's lucky station, and even a few callouts to Mr. Dark One. We end with Tay and Marissa ranking the current list of characters and talking over who performed and who truly did not.
