Episode 58 – Prelude through Chapter 5 of The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson

Welcome to the Duke and Duchess PODCAST!

We are starting a new chapter, a new book, and a new series with Brandon Sanderson’s epic The Way of Kings.

Heads up!  Because we’re (hopefully) bringing in new listeners we start off covering some of the basics of our podcast.  The actual Way of Kings content begins at the 10 minute mark.

What’s The Duchess Reading Now:

• The Warded Man – Peter V Brett.
• The Darkest Part of the Forest – Holly Black
• Spinning Silver – Naomi Novik
• Armageddon Rag by George R. R. Martin (from Chad)

Predictions:

• How I think that Kaladin got captured.  A brighteye from the opposing army must have captured him and ransomed him back.  Then Amaram sold him as a penalty for failing….however, there is more to it than this.
• Kaladin will end up being a magician/wizard.  And his being a “darkeye” is going to be problematic to the Vorin elite and religious.
• Race will be a major theme in this series.
• Khaladin has guilt over all of the men that have died fighting with him, but the “Girl” is something different entirely.  I think that her death led to him joining the army.
• The stone that Gavilar gives Seth is filled with the Void.
