  <description>We conclude our deep dive into Maggie Stiefvater's THE RAVEN CYCLE with chapters 33-the end of THE RAVEN KING! We talk possession, grief, closure, and, of course, continue our Pynch meltdown. We also get into our favorite series arcs and characters, and take a look at how they've all grown and evolved since the beginning of the series. THANK YOU SO MUCH for joining us on this journey - we're not done with this universe yet, but this phase of the story has been wrapped up, and we have loved every second of our time talking about it here. SPOILER ALERT: once again, we want to remind you that we WILL be referencing events throughout the entire series, up to and including the OPAL novella, all ancillary stories, and book one of the DREAMER trilogy: CALL DOWN THE HAWK. If you have not yet read these and you don't want to be spoiled, please come back when you're done!
As always, thanks to Martha Riley for our art, Djempirical for our music, and Tim for editing!

  <description>We are joined by returning guest, friend of the pod Melissa, to discuss chapters 1-32 of Maggie Stiefvater's epic conclusion to THE RAVEN CYCLE: THE RAVEN KING! We talk character growth, cinematic horror, impending doom, and have a collective meltdown over the ship that is Pynch. Oh, and Tasia has another meltdown over Declan Lynch, but what else is new. You know what? This is undeniably our most unhinged episode yet, which is pretty alarming. Enjoy! SPOILER ALERT: once again, we want to remind you that we WILL be referencing events throughout the entire series, up to and including the OPAL novella, all ancillary stories, and book one of the DREAMER trilogy: CALL DOWN THE HAWK. If you have not yet read these and you don't wish to be spoiled please come back when you're done!

  <description>It's starting, it's starting...with book one of Maggie Stiefvater's incredible THE RAVEN CYCLE! In this extra long, extra spoilery episode we talk magic, forests, and ALL the foreshadowing goodness that can be found in THE RAVEN BOYS. SPOILER WARNING! We decided there was no way to discuss these books without talking about all the foreshadowing and far-reaching implications, so in these episodes we will be talking about the entire series - including the OPAL novella, short stories, and CALL DOWN THE HAWK (the first book in the Dreamer Triology). If you have not read those and you don't want to be spoiled, we'll be here waiting for you when you finish!
As always, thanks to Martha for our art, Djempirical for our music, and Tim for editing.
