In this episode Felisin, Heboric, and Baudin take the worlds worst road trip.  Mappo and Icarium find a boat.  Fiddler, Apsalar, and Crokus find a road.  And Kalam…is around.  And there’s this whole rebellion thing.  It’s a big deal. 
Predictions:

Otataral is not simply an element that mutes magic.  Instead it is a superior form of magic that mutes magic from inferior warrens.  
The situation with the Coltaine’s wagon train of civilian refugees is going to get ugly.  I know that Coltaine has been pitched as a highly competent commander, but he is just in an awful situation.  
We’ll see more characters start to merge in later chapters of the book.  I’m looking for Toblakai and Leoman to show back up when one of the group discovers them.  I suspect that Kulp will find Felisin and crew. 
Fiddler mentions Tremolor in a way that makes me think that this is where the Deadhouse Gate will arise.  I thought it would be where Iskaral Pust is located, but now I’m beginning to think that isn’t the case. 
Tremolor is inside of some warren.
The Name Theory: Characters with terrible names die right away, those with good names come back around.

In this episode the Bridgeburners make their way to Darujhistan.  So does everyone else.  We are introduced to the T’lan Imass.  Lorn, Toc the Younger, Dujek, and Tattersail have a very awkward dinner.  But, not as awkward as Paran and Tattersails burgeoning romance.
Predictions:

They wanted to get rid of Tattersail during the attack on Moons Spawn because of her previous relationship with the old Emporer.  
And they want to keep Tayschrenn around because, while he is a powerful mage, he is a weak person. 
The Empress sent mages into the Mouse Quarter to indiscriminately kill “witches” and then sweep through with the Claw to recruit people who could potentially become radicalized.  It was a deliberate and measured act.
The First Throne is in the shadow warren.
Crone is going to betray Caladan Brood.
Caladan Brood is going to die in this novel.

In this episode the Scooby Gang (Krokus, Rallick Nom, Murillio, and Kruppe) hangs out in Darujhistan and plays with their wax disks.  We meet the Crone, Baruk, and Circle Breaker.  Anomander Rake stops by to gloat about his superior tongue skills and drink box wine.
Predictions:

Anomander Rake is hiding something about Pale’s Wizards.  It’s not as straightforward as he says.
Rallick wants something from the pond in the Tower’s keep.
Rallick was going to assassinate Lady Simtal on behalf of another, but I suspect that it actually isn’t Coll, but instead Baruk.  And that Baruk had plans with Simtal that the Lady interrupted…thus Baruk sent Rallick to dispatch her. 
Kruppe is not human.

Our next episode will cover chapters eight through ten of Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson.

In this episode Tattersail and her cadre attack Moons Spawn and Anomander Rake.  Ganoes Paran shows up to take over command of Whiskeyjack’s ninth squad.  It doesn’t go well.
Predictions: 

The “Claw” from the Empress is the one that killed (or facilitated killing) Calot, and Hairlock.
Tayschren stood under Moons Spawn, because it put him furthest away from the assassin on the plains.  
WhiskeyJack and the Bridgeburners are going to turn to Cotillion to attempt to kill Tayschrenn.  
Paran is still alive.

In this episode we are introduced to Ganoes Paran, twice.  He’s a pawn in the imperial power structure.  He’s sent out to find Sorry, who is a pawn of the gods.  Or at least some high level baddies.  We’re also introduced to history.  A whole lot of history.  We’ll help you get through it in this 2 and a half hour introduction to Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson, the first book in the Malazan Book of the Fallen series.
Predictions: 

Laseen wants to squash all magic that is not under her control.  This appears to be a major goal of hers. 
This “Soldier in the Clanking Armor” is WhiskeyJack.  
Ganoes father has some serious secrets that we don’t know yet.  
Laseen doesn’t survive this series.
Sorry’s goal is not to assassinate Laseen.  Thats just a bonus.

Thank you to everyone who has come onboard since we started Stormlight Archive.  And thanks to everyone who has been with us the whole time!  You are the reason why we do this.  This one has been a long project.  The podcast has grown a great deal, and we’ve grown as podcasters since we started.  We’ve been doing this one for so long that even the world around us has changed in unexpected ways.  But, you stay true.  Fantasy stays true.  And these characters help to see us through troubled times.  Thanks again for all of you who make this community special.  
At the end of this episode we reference a “Knights Radiant” Quiz to determine which order you belong to.  That quiz can be found here.
Liz’s Predictions: 

* Renarin’s differences are going to be a key element in defeating Odium
* Kaladin swears the fourth ideal
* We will have a Bridge 4 wedding

* We will learn more about Rock and the Horneaters.
* Moash will kill another Herald
* Moash gets a redemption arc.

* Singers and Humans will team up at the end to defeat Odium

Chad’s Predictions: 

* The battle for Kholinar will be the major focus of the next book. 
* I think that Renarin and Adolin will have to find out soon about how their mother died.  
* I think that the Ghostbloods will feature more heavily in the next book. 
* There are still too many things that the “Good Guys” don’t know about Urithiru.  Any Odium will exploit that in the next book.

Our next episode will begin our next series.  That episode will cover the prologue and chapter one of Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson.

This is the most epic game of Marble Madness ever.  But, the loser gets abandoned by all of his friends. Kaladin, Shallan, and Adolin get hunted by the Fused in Shadesmar.  Dalinar gets punk’d by history.  And the alien invaders were us all along!
Predictions:

* Adolin revives his deadeye.
* Adolin will abdicate power.
* Ico comes back to haunt them.
