DK and Kirioth are back to break down the monstrous second half of Glen Cook's dark fantasy classic. From explosive spell-wars between Goblin and One-Eye to Soulcatcher flexing a literal magic carpet, the retreat from the North is anything but a quiet march. We are diving into massive magical sieges, the Lady unleashing two dozen war elephants on the Rebel army, and Croaker continuing to absolutely lose his mind every time he makes eye contact with a terrifying ancient sorceress. Plus, we finally start putting the pieces together on the White Rose prophecy and uncover just how deep the Taken conspiracy really goes. Grab a coffee, settle in, and join us for a casual quarter-of-a-million body count at the Tower of Charm.
