Slava (00:00):
Well, well, well, look who the cat dragged in. If it
isn't the PsyQuest podcast bookclub hosts. And we're almost
back. We are a week away fromour next season. So in Jonathan
Parlance, buckle up.

Jonathan (00:17):
What do they have to look forward to, Jonathan? We
are starting off with two pastmidnight, secret window, secret
garden. It'll be a two partseries. And our guest, you
probably heard this one of theprevious announcements, will be
Jess with some hot takes for twopast midnight. And then your
favorite characters are comingback right after that.

Slava (00:38):
Locke and John? Yes. Because everybody else is dead?

Jonathan (00:43):
They are. They are. They are. They are. How you're,
like, mid read on that rightnow.
How do you like it so far?

Slava (00:49):
Yeah. I like it. I think it's a little slower paced than
the first book. Not in a badway. Just my observation.
Kinda like the first bookbetter, but you told me to wait
until the end. So I'm excitedfor that. As we're recording
this announcement, once it comesout, I will be fully immersed
under the red water. Let's sendthose red skies. Whatever that

(01:13):
means.
I'm looking forward to it.

Jonathan (01:15):
Red seas under red skies. The ending is a bit like
a Sander Lanche.

Slava (01:19):
Oh, okay.

Jonathan (01:19):
That's why I'm telling you, like and it's not it's not
as epic and heroic the way thata Sander Lanche would be. It's
more morose and dishearteninglike the first book where a
bunch of terrible stuff happens.Can't wait. So I I I knew you'd
love this series. I've said itbefore.

(01:39):
I'll say it again. And honestly,I'm, like, super looking forward
to Scott Lynch overcoming hisstuff in his life to get the
edits out for the book four.It's supposed to be seven books,
actually. We only have three.Oh, wow.
And he's wrote two novellas thatkinda link between some of the
books. So he's working on it,albeit slowly, but I'm Can

(02:02):
relate? Yes. Can relate. Anyway,we are back very, very soon.
I believe it's about a week awaynow. And, yeah, we can't wait to
be back with two past midnight.

Slava (02:13):
We'll see you next week, folks.

Jonathan (02:15):
