  • Great podcast!

    I recently the finished the realm of elderlings and listening along as a “reread”. Very entertaining and enjoyable podcast. Brings great comfort to me since I’m done reading and I enjoy listening to all the Easter eggs I missed.

I’m only on episode 4, but this podcast already enhances my experience with each chapter and is everything I could ask for in a companion podcast. Luke and Emma discuss the chapters thoughtfully and are genuinely pleasant to listen to. I’m so grateful this podcast exists and am excited to listen to the next 200+ episo... more

  • Finally a good one!

    IMO there’s not any good commentary/podcast about this series.

    Finally though there’s a good one!

    I’ve really enjoyed revisiting Fitz and this series with this podcast and more than likely so will you.
