    Fitz wakes up in his own bed late in the day and into the evening. Lord Golden is quite upset with Tom Badgerlock for how he packed his silks, and the conversation between them is laden with words unspoken. Fitz heads to town to check on Hap and finds only Jinna, who welcomes him in gladly. We're reading Fool's Errand by Robin Hobb, book 1 of the Tawny Man Trilogy in The Realm of the Elderlings.

I’ve always loved the Realm of the Elderlings, and not a lot of people I’ve met have strong feelings on it enough to discuss each chapter for an hour or so. Being able to get a new perspective on this world from people who have read the full series is so refreshing. I’ve listened to 11 episodes over the last day and a half and plan to catch up in time for Tawny Man!

Finally!

just popped in on this podcast so I could feel like I was discussing my favorite series with other fans, but 2 sentences in and I just had a major story arc revealed to me...ugh, why didn't I heed the spoiler warning?! I had thought maybe the spoilers were for which book they were discussing at the time....

spoilers for all 16 books.

It’s great! Love listening to in depth discussion peeling apart chapters, it also has helped me catch some stuff that I missed even after 3 readings myself.
