Attolia knew she shouldn’t just let him go. Her loneliness is killing her. Gen must confess, he still believes, still believes! Irene hates religious siiiiiigns, hit him baby one more time.

We barrel head-on into Book 2; Eugenides barrels head-on into a wooden board. So far, so good. Also featuring: Irene's elusive feelings, irresponsible childcare, hand puns, and our friend Chip.

In our concluding episode for The Thief, we lovingly discuss three bonus short stories, applaud the framing of the Queen’s Thief narratives, and realize Gen was wearing bell bottoms THE WHOLE TIME.

In which Gen takes a well-deserved nap and we talk about Helen, nobility, the elusive Eugenides siblings, and VOLCANO DAY. Next episode, onward to book 2!

How can Gen live with the consequences of killing another person? Does Attolia actually have feelings? How many gleeful puns about Ambiades’s death can we fit in twenty minutes? Tune into this week’s episode to find out!

Is Gen an insider or an outsider? A nationalist or an internationalist? A pacifist or a killer? A moral hero or a sneaky little jerk? This episode, we get down into the river muck with these questions and more while Gen steals the Gift again, right under our noses.

In this episode, Gen steals from the Great Goddess and lives to tell about it while we discuss emerald rings, religious awakenings, disability, and the book’s first mention of actual wine!

Spooky maze? Check. Pile of skeletons? Check. Stolen beef jerky? Check. We've got everything we need for a cozy night at the temple. In this episode, Gen makes his first attempt at finding that pesky rock, and we wonder if it's really stealing if a god says it's okay.

Everything goes south for Gen but he decides to rise above for the sake of his ambition, while we declare our undying love for the Minister of War and discuss points to load into our gun of analysis.
