  • #20 Sunbringer: Chapter 38 - End
    Jan 21 2025

    Sam and Dan discuss chapter 38 - the end of Hannah Kaner's Sunbringer, book two of the Fallen Gods Trilogy.

    SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading the chapters we're covering before listening.

    We ask whether the chapter structure that this book enables the story and characters to be developed most effectively. We reflect on what we loved about the story, the world and where we are heading into the final book in the trilogy. And finally, we make our conclusions on what we thought of Sunbringer overall.

  • #19 Sunbringer: Chapter 17 - 37
    Jan 7 2025

    Sam and Dan discuss chapter 17 - 37 of Hannah Kaner's Sunbringer, book two of the Fallen Gods Trilogy.

    SPOILER ALERT: This episode contains spoilers. We strongly recommend reading the chapters we're covering before listening.

    As our main characters go about their largely separate storylines, we ponder how Hannah Kaner might bring them all back together, or not, for the climax of Sunbringer. We discuss what we have enjoyed about the building of the political world as well as getting to spend more time interacting with the various gods that have a part to play. As usual, we present theories for where Kissen, Inara, Skeddy and Elo will end up.
