But for now, we're going to wrap up the general discussion and we're going to go after dark and we're going to talk about spoilers.
So if you do not want spoilers, do not listen to this part.
All right, now.
The big reveal.
Let's get into it.
Several big reveals of this book.
But one of the main ones is that Odessa and Caspia's timelines are at different times, which is a classic way to trick people.
The reveal is that Caspia and Andreas are Odessa's parents.
How did we feel about this?
Did you guess that the timelines were at different points of time?
Yes.
You were nodding very smugly.
Was this the Boster?
But did it take you, took you to the castle when their kind of storylines intersect to really make that connection?
Can I tell you when I guessed?
I suspected early on but I couldn't quite figure out how it was different and it was also once their stories don't intersect but once the place intersects because I wonder if they were going to sort of meet halfway and then I was like, no, that's not right.
And then we're in the castle and she did so well to be like, these are all the familiar places and some familiar people but done in a slightly tricksy way and some of them were older and some of them were younger but in a way where you can't quite tell.
And that is what I think I loved about that reveal because he's still like, to be honest, pretty much a dick in that second book.
But it gives him this element of like you can almost understand why.
And it's just so tragic that he lost the first love of his life and then ultimately everything he was doing was for her.
