There are SIX bonus chapters for the Throne of Glass series, and we're talking through the first FOUR today. These take place in the first half of the series, including a deleted scene from Heir of Fire that you don't want to miss!

We'll be covering the last two bonus chapters in another bonus episode (bonus bonus bonus) after finishing the tandem read, because they take place around Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn. But for this bonus episode, there are no spoilers for any chapters or books beyond Heir of Fire.
