290 - Rhythm of War - Chapters 15 and 16 Jul 27, 2026

Show notes

Some serious Cosmere stuff coming out this time. The only in-universe audience for it is Kaladin, though, who doesn't understand half of it and doesn't care much about the rest. To be fair, he's got his own stuff going on. And a mysterious sphere that harkens all the way back to the beginning of The Way of Kings. This should be interesting.

289 - Rhythm of War - Chapters 13 and 14 Jul 20, 2026

Show notes

Things are coming to a head on the Ghostbloods front as Mraize gives Shallan (and her brain roommates) a final mission. In another part of Roshar a plan is set in motion by a newly-awakened Fused to cripple the coalition in a single stroke.

288 - Rhythm of War - Chapters 10 to 12 Jul 13, 2026

Show notes

Joe missed this one, but we're talking about the wind down from the min-Sanderlanche that starts this book off. What seemed like a totally successful pair of missions brings a variety of consequences in the aftermath, and not just for our friends in Urithiru.

287 - Rhythm of War - Chapters 7 to 9 Jun 29, 2026

Show notes

Kaladin and Moash come face-to-face again for the first time in a long while. It's bad. Beyond that, there's some good stuff in here. Kaladin takes down the new Fused because he's kind of a windbag. There's even a bit of Lift, which is generally fun. Still ... Moash.

286 - Rhythm of War - Chapters 3 to 6 Jun 22, 2026

Show notes

The beginning of this book continues to move at a breakneck pace as Kaladin gets two separate epic battle scenes, and Navani's new creation descends from the heavens. At the same time concerns are raised regarding Shallan's ongoing stability and the sudden, unwelcome reappearance of a former Bridge 4 comrade.

285 - Rhythm of War - Prologue to Chapter 2 Jun 15, 2026

Show notes

Well, here we go. It's time for the next Richard the Thick Book to hit our tables. Rhythm of War begins with some big revelations as to the character of Gavilar Kholin, and our crew has thoughts.

284 - Stormlight Jeopardy Jun 08, 2026

Show notes

On the Sanderlanche Podcast we've been reading Brandon Sanderon's books for the first time and talking about them, in detail, a few chapters at a time. The problem is as we progress through his epic series The Stormlight Archive, that means it's been quite a while since we read some of these books. We started The Way of Kings in October of 2023.

So, thanks to a listener's suggestion, we decided to do a review episode to hit some key points before we move into Rhythm of War, and the result is this - Stormlight Jeopardy in 3 rounds - one for each of the Stormlight books we've read so far. Whether you're already a listener to the podcast or you just enjoy The Stormlight Archive and want to play along, join us for this very special edition of The Sanderlanche Podcast!

283 - Dawnshard - Chapter 17 to Epilogue May 25, 2026

Show notes

Jaymee couldn't make it for the wrap-up, but we finished Dawnshard this week, and it was a fun Sanderlanche for this novella. So much happens at the end, but the resolution seems to have been pretty satisfying for the crew.

282 - Dawnshard - Chapters 10 to 16 May 18, 2026

Show notes

2/3 of the way through, and things are really heating up. The characters have seen through the tricks and are beginning to dig into the truth of Amia. Unfortunately that's exactly what The Gods Who Sleep Not did NOT want. So it's time for a giant monster attack. The podcast crew is really enjoying this one.

281 - Dawnshard - Chapters 6 to 9 May 11, 2026

Show notes

We reach the halfway point of this novella, and the team is actually really vibing with a Stormlight story that answers questions without making you wait a thousand pages. Seems like we're really feeling good as we ease back into Roshar after our break on Lumar.
