The Queens are at it again, this time reading part 2 of book 13. Queens Marissa and Tay argue over exactly how bad Gawyn is. Queen Al manages to hold her tongue, even as the other two get closer and closer to the end. Expect new Aes Sedai tests, old rivalries, a growing disdain for a certain Queen who cannot be stopped, a lingering question of where their goofy rogue went off to, and a budding romance that no one wants to read about. In other words, listen in as the Queens discuss
the Prologue to the end of Chapter 15 of Book Thirteen of The Wheel of Time, Towers of Midnight by Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson.This episode ends with a game of Travel Itineraries, in which the Queens suggest where your next Randland vacation could take place. Then Tay and Marissa slot those characters into their ranking lists, and the newest character to scrape the bottom of the list might even surprise you.
