13. Sweet Dreams

Welcome to suffering hours. In a Chapter 25 that's straight out of a horror movie, poor Isaac Tettares and Jeannemary Chatur meet their tragic deaths and we will absolutely never be okay about it. There's a lot of wailing. But we tried to lift the mood afterwards with a fun vocab quiz, the second part of our discussion about lyctors Augustine and Mercymorn—including a look at the parallels between Harrow the Ninth and No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre—and another very sexy bone! * SPOILER ALERT * We reference events from GTN and HTN in this podcast, as it’s intended for readers who’ve already finished both books.
