    Ep. 284 - The Wilful Princess and the Piebald Prince Part 2

    27/03/2026 | 2h 12 mins.
    This is another special episode where Luke and Emma finish the novella with part two, The Piebald Prince. Prince Charger grows up in Buckkeep alongside his friend Redbird, soon to be minstrel. He becomes King-In-Wating and raises up the Wit to higher heights. However, his seeming favoritism and the whispers of Canny's court sway public opinion away from the Piebald Prince. Canny Farseer and Charger Farseer vie for a woman, the throne, and their ego; their struggle brings down the Wit in the process. 
    We're about to start The Golden Fool, book 2 of the Tawny Man Trilogy, but this is a bonus episode about a novella expanding and shedding light and historical truth on an in-universe myth in the same world.
