    Throne of Glass: Chapters 49 - 55

    Best friends Jac and Amy conduct a literary analysis of Sarah J. Maas's debut novel, Throne of Glass. In this episode, they discuss chapters 49 - 55. Each episode is broken into 2 parts. This is part 1 of this week's episode. Stick around for part 2, which airs on Thursday. (Spoilers for Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, and Heir of Fire will be discussed. Any larger series or other SJM spoilers will be reserved for the end of Thursday's episode in part 2.) Every episode, Jac and Amy use their combined 13 years of literary academic training to analyze and give voice to reasons why you may love or hate today's popular books. They embrace and respect modern fantasy, romance, and romantasy books written by women. And so, it is in their nature to analyze these books as you would any other novel you might have discussed in school. Chapter summary for this week's episodes: Despite Chaol’s encouragement, Celaena is unable to stand and fight Cain as she is plagued by unseen demons from the In Between. Fearing death, she calls on Elena to help her beat off the horde long enough for Celaena to rise and fight back, ultimately defeating Cain. Celaena’s grave injuries distract her and a helpless Dorian such that they do not see Cain approach to finish her off, but Chaol intercedes and ultimately kills the brute. Celaena is named the King’s Champion, and Kaltain – seething at her failure to incapacitate the assassin – is imprisoned for poisoning the Champion. For a week, Celaena is attended to by Dorian, Nehemia, and Phillipa as she recovers, during which the King and Perrington scheme and Dorian stands up to his father to protect Celaena and Chaol. Despite their bond, Celaena ends her romantic relationship with Dorian, while Chaol, ashamed and dejected for murdering Cain, cannot accept comfort from his friends. He only finds hope for the future when he sees Celaena and her own happiness at the prospect of her freedom. Sponsors: Try Dipsea today!

    Best friends Jac and Amy conduct a literary analysis of Sarah J. Maas's debut novel, Throne of Glass. In this episode, they discuss chapters 44 - 48. Each episode is broken into 2 parts. This is part 2 of this week's episode. Come back Tuesday, where we'll discuss chapters 49 - 55. (Spoilers for Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, and Heir of Fire will be discussed. Any larger series or other SJM spoilers will be reserved for the end of Thursday's episode in part 2.)

Chapter summary for this week's episodes: The King of Adarlan returns to Rifthold, and Celaena cannot get far enough away from him. Though Chaol recognizes her terror, he doesn’t understand it, and instead is caught in the turmoil of his own thoughts: He wants to make sure Celaena wins, but struggles with his role in retraining the world’s greatest assassin. With the final Test so close at hand, Celaena convinces Nox to flee the castle and avoid death by ridderak. Kaltain continues to lose her mental and physical autonomy while Celaena uses Dorian to distract herself from the dangers that haunt her. On the day of the final duel, Celaena is able to successfully incapacitate Grave, but is poisoned before the final fight with Cain. She succumbs to the hallucinations of bloodbane, only to encounter her foe on a completely different battlefield. Sponsors: Are you ready to bring all your favorite carbs right to your doorstep?
