Hey y'all! The audio on this episode is quieter/lower than usual since we lost our primary audio, so I had to use our backups. Turn your volume all the way up if you're having difficulty hearing us!  

These audio issues are also why we took an impromptu hiatus from releasing episodes, but never fear; in the meantime, we've kept recording and have finished Assassin's Quest, and now that our editing issues are resolved, we'll be back to our regular Monday 12CST release schedule!  

In this episode Kayiu, Leah, and Alex debate who the worst villain in the series was, discuss the series' first visit to the portentous city of Kelsingra, and delight in the Fool's droll wit. (Not, not that wit!)  

What is Return to the Realm? Return to the Realm is a re-readers podcast for Robin Hobb's Realm of the Elderlings series, exploring the series from the very first book but making reference to any & all of the fifteen that follow!
