**All our episodes may contain SPOILERS for all three Maasverse series so please only listen if you've read ALL the books!**
In this episode, we discuss Tamlin and Lucien's goodbye to Feyre and her descent back into the human lands! There's lots of interesting aspects to Lucien's anger with Tamlin and with what Tamlin may have wanted Feyre to do. Then we get into the return to her family and her sisters' attitudes (and how she thinks humans now look "unfinished" after only 3 months away?!?)
