Episode 152: The Wind and the Wheel

In this episode of Davos Fingers covering NINE chapters, Denna gets over her high while Kvothe confronts the rampaging Draccus and offers it some Sympathy before making his way home to the University.  He has many apologies to give and amends to make there, but one consistent thorn in Kvothe’s side learns that sticks and stones may be bad, but Names actually can hurt something fierce.  He also goes up on the horns, again, and is sentenced to a lashing, awarded a small fortune, expelled from the University, promoted to Re’lar, and readmitted to the University in the span of a few minutes.  And lastly, Kvothe finally gathers the courage to ask Auri to show him her home.  It’s a lot of content, and the Fingers enjoyed every minute of it!

If you love all the good spoilery bits talked about in the future sections of this book, don’t miss Devi After Dark at the end of the episode where we chat about some of the deeper mysteries in this series.  But if you are reading along for the first time, don’t worry, all spoilers will be avoided until then!
