Having read the series a few…. dozen times, it is great to hear other perspectives.
I’m only 7 episodes in on this podcast but it is great so far. I love the diversity of the “expert, journeyman,and novice” with regards to the wheel of time stories and lore. So no matter your personal level knowledge of the Randlands you will be entertained with these recaps and discussions.
Definitely the best WoT podcast out there for the books. Just finished the whole series and always knew I’d re-read it. This just helped me start the re-read sooner than I expected.
It’s a great dynamic between the 3 hosts. One is a WoT expert and one is reading the series for the first time. I’d highly recommend to anyone who wants something to listen to as they read along, both newcomers and people who are re-reading.
This is by far the best WoT podcast. And I’ve tried listening to several. Gets better each season. I’m currently reading book 4 but it’s great to go back each week and listen to these guys cover previous books and chapters. Plus they are great at avoiding spoilers while giving a lot of nuggets to chew on. Highly recommended.
I’m really enjoying this podcast so far, I’ve tried to listen to a few other Wheel of Time related podcasts and haven’t really been a fan of any of them. But this one has been excellent so far!
