Here we are, at the end of all things. It's time to say goodbye to the Gansey as we read chapters 62 to the epilogue of The Raven King through the theme of promise this week.
In this section, Ronan is being unmade and Adam, unable to bear it, scries and gets some useful advice from Persephone. Meanwhile, Gansey accepts that there is no time to save himself, and asks Blue to kiss him. She does, and he dies. It’s pretty terrible. Henry compells them to action, and Adam suggests asking Cabeswater to die for Gansey. Together, they work with the last of Ronan’s dreamt forest, and Gansey is remade. In the epilogue, Adam confronts his parents for the last time; Gansey, Blue, and Henry receive a graduation gift from Ronan for their gap year; and Ronan begins to dream.

Thanks for listening! We're going to be taking a break for a wee while to consider the future of the pod. We'll be back with an update as soon as we can, but keep an eye on the website for updates, too. In the meantime, check out our earlier seasons if you haven’t already. Start with season 3 on Strange the Dreamer, we reckon it’s a stellar book that deserves more recognition!
