Thank you very much to Brett for commissioning this episode!

Thank you so much to Florian for commissioning this episode! These are the ones where a little girl begins to see lizards and toads where people should be, Trafalgar Law reveals that his chains aren't made from Sea Prism Stone at all, and our friends outside catch a ride on a mischievous dragon.

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode!

Thank you very much to Sofia for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones in which Miles goes to a sort of pre-funeral and sees that the person who barged into his ship and stuffed the rod into his hand has, apparently, killed itself. He's also pretty convinced that Yenaro is indeed the one that set him up. I am still not sure if I a…

Thank you very much to Bernadette for commissioning this episode! In these 3 eps, we have the culmination of everything that Caesar Clown has been setting up with this poinson gas, and turns out it's basically an infomercial. Meanwhile, Brownbeard is still alive, and Vergo is someone important to the Marines but I don't remember him! Thanks so much…

Thank you very much to Dan for comissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones where we get an interlude with Praximar's POV (!) and we also get brought all the way back to Bastion in an instant like it's nothing. Our friends are struggling to understand how things are going to work now that the White Queen is leaving, and Manticore is giggl…

Thank you very much to Jeff for commissioning this episode! These chapters we begin a new advanture with Miles, in which he's on a fairly boring and routine visit to Cetaganda for a funeral when he and Ivan are interrupted by a strange man with a stranger object. Later on, someone tries to sear his legs off. Thanks to you all for listening, and I w…

Thank you very much to Bernadette for commissioning this episode! These are the ones where Luffy, despite multiple failed attempts on Caesar Clown's part, is finally overcome with toxic gas. Meanwhile, Sanji is swimming to get the Samurai's head, and Law is wandering down a corridor when he runs into an old friend. Thanks so much to you all for lis…

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones where Scorio's journey is cut short, but not by his untimely death as he eventually expects.

Welcome, listeners! It's time for maybe the very first live-read of the series? I can't remember. But I wanted to do it, we had the time, and I went ahead with it. But only AFTER discussing Tyrion and Barristan's chapters! This incredible artwork of Quentyn Martell, called 'Death By Fire' is by Eric Velhagen and you can see it here! https://www.red…

This lovely illustration of Sade and The Crocodile is by @kaitlyn.illustration and you can see it here! https://www.instagram.com/p/C9aFTj9gDrx/?hl=en&img_index=1 These chapters are the ones in which Sade is hired at Mamadele's inn, but Mamadele is only willing to hire Sade if she can accomplish a few minor miracles. In the meantime, Sade gets to k…

Thank you very much to Florian for commissioning this episode! These were some really fun episodes, where I'm trying to figure out what the deal is with Trafalgar Law, Caesar Clown does weird wild stuff as usual, Nami gets kidnapped by a yeti, and Luffy makes a new alliance. I'm having a good time with this arc! Thanks so much to you all for listen…

Thank you very much to Jeff for commissioning this episode! It's time for the final chapter in The Vor Game, and it's got a lot of wrapping up to do so it's a long one. Miles is confronted with some enemies that don't get along with one another too well, and after all is said and done one of them gets away...with honors. Meanwhile, Gregor is assert…

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones where our friends go through the weird rain-wall and then come out into gorgeous farmland on the other side. They meet Davelos, who just hits me wrong in some way that's difficult to describe, and I don't like him. And there's another fight. Thanks so much to you…

Thank you very much to Vicky for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones where both Miles and Gregor have to play their parts to convince Cavilo that they're not as smart as she is, and Miles has to lock up yet another group of commanding officers in the brig. Bless him. Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you again …

Thank you very much to Renate for commissioning this episode! This is the one where we find out that the person Kovac is working for is basically a serial killer, but I guess it doesn't matter when none of the women REALLY dies? Also, Ortega is out here stealing souls, so to speak, but I have a hard time faulting her for it. At the same time I unde…

Thank you so much to Dan for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones where our merry band gets paired up with a representative from House Manticore, and then they all head out onto the Rascor plains. We get some more descriptions of the bizarre terriain and physics of this universe, and we also get to see what Jova's power is. Thank…

Thank you very much to Renate for commissioning this episode! I'm so excited about this show! I had no idea what it was about but it turns out that the plot is kind of fulfilling a long-held wish of mine that I never thought would be realized. How exciting! Thank you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode! Wanna talk spoilers…

Thank you very much to Florian for commissioning this episode! These episodes are the ones in which we learn more about Cesar Clown, what the island used to be like, and what kinds of gross experiments he's doing on unsuspecting people as well as children. Trafalgar Law, WAT R U DOIN????Thanks so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a n…

Thank you to Sofia for commissioning this episode! I'm enjoying this book so much, but damn it can be really humbling to read something and know that I would NOT have done it that way, and thus I would end up dead. I'm running into that a LOT with Miles! Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode! Wanna talk…

Thank you so much to Florian for commissioning this episode! These are the ones where Trafalgar Law takes Captain Smoker's heart in his hands, while Luffy and his friends face off against Brownbeard and his crew.

Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode! …

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones where Scorio gets involved with the rebellion and it's very clear that he wouldn't have even thought of it if circumstances hadn't coalesced the way they did. He gets together with Helena and Feiyan again, all while the White Queen makes a plan to abandon Bastion…

Thank you very much to Florian for commissioning this episode! These are the ones where our friends find a weird nursery filled with children of dramatically varying sizes, while Luffy & Co. encounter Boss Brownbeard, and Brook fights a disembodied torso.

Thank you very much to Dan for commissioning this episode! We're starting in on the second book in the Immortal Great Souls series, and I'm so excited!

Join the Di…

Thank you so much to Jeff for commissioning this episode! These are the chapters where Miles completely fails his test of subordination, but in a way that I find ultimately admirable and honorable. I'm shocked that he's already been removed from the base since I really thought there was more to happen there, but I'm always up for a surprise! Thank …

Thank you very much to Florian for commissioning this episode! These are the episodes where our friends breach the surface and find themselves at a really intimidating volcanic island, and half our friends go ashore while the rest wait on the ship and then get captured by some real weirdos. Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see yo…

Thank you very much to Jeff for commissioning this episode! I was so sad that this recording was delayed, but I'm delighted to be able to talk about it and finally start the next Miles Vorkosigan novel! This one begins with Miles being told that he doesn't know how to obey authority or give orders to people who are... ordinary. Then he's shipped of…

Thank you very much to Ashley for commissioning this episode! These chapters are the ones where Lyria saves a Telemanus from drowning in his space suit, Lysander and Cassius get surrounded after a desperate flight, and Darrow runs off his his Howlers in a really poorly-judged bid to finish the war once and for all. Thanks so much to you all for lis…

Thank you very much to Jen for commissioning this episode! I was so sad when this book was over, y'all. I really was. The only thing that assuaged my grief was how neatly Miles is able to tie up and spank his enemy, and in front of his father and all the bigwigs. Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode! W…

Thank you to Florian for commissioning this episode! These are the episodes where our friends finally FINALLY begin to head for the surface, unaware of the fact that there's a bunch of Marines waiting to nail them to the wall. We also get the promise that they will return someday, and find out that the tamate box that was given to Big Ma is wired w…

Thank you very much to Ashley for commissioning this episode! Before you message me, I KNOW THE BEGiNNING IS EDITED WRONG, I'm so sorry! By the time I realized, I had already deleted the original file. D: These are the chapters in which we get confirmation about the Red Hand, we see Darrow get publicly reprimanded and lose face, and we watch Lysand…

Thank you very much to Jen for commissioning this episode! These are the chapters immediately after Bothari's murder, and Miles takes it a lot harder than Elena. He disappears inside himself for a couple weeks, and when he finally resurfaces it seems like he's just in time to keep everything from falling apart. Thank you for listening, and I will s…

Thank you very much to Florian for not only commissioning this episode, but also joining me as a co-host! These are the episodes where the Fishman Island arc finally begins to really wrap up, but first we have to set up a new villain who loves candy and apparently has a long reach and intense powers. Thanks so much to you all for listening, and I w…

Thank you very much to Ashley for commissioning this episode! So we're getting further into the book and I'm getting more and more frustrated with Darrow. I am glad we're not in his POV the whole time because I think it would be too infuriating. And I appreciate getting to see the ripple effects. Thank you again so much for listening, and I will se…
