One book down, five more to go! In this episode, your fave Queens finish off A Wizard of Earthsea, the first installment in the Earthsea Cycle Series. Expect discussions on why a gull is not the ideal escape bird, the description neither Queen will forgive Le Guin for forcing us to read, and our continual wonder on how Ged becomes a proficient (let alone, remarkable?) wizard. Queen Tay bonds with Ged over his desire to see the whales and Queen Marissa talks about the hidden meaning behind herbs, flowers, trees, and other plants. Come aboard Lookfar, and join your Queens as we finish book one A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin, book one of the Earthsea Series.
This episode includes a returning favourtie game, What's the Vibe? We also complete our first book review in Earthsea, as well as reveal our Most Valuable and Least Valuable character rankings.
