If there is one thing we learn about King Graham in this King's Quest adventure is that his Queen, Valanice, is so hot that even the faerie folk are jealous of her. That's a serious smoke show. Uhhh anyway welcome back to King's Quest! Our Socials Follow us at patreon.com/pixellitpod [https://patreon.com/pixellitpod] and hop into our Discord [https://discord.gg/sVny5WZnjf]!

Oh boy. Phil didn't even finish reading the book and Kevin nearly defenestrated himself finishing it. Book is bad folks. Real bad. Anyway, tight episode today because Kevin summed up the ending on ludicrous speed.   Our Socials Follow us at patreon.com/pixellitpod [https://patreon.com/pixellitpod] and hop into our Discord [https://discord.gg/sVny5WZnjf]!

This has to be it. The low point right? There is nothing remotely interesting about this book aside from the anger that it stirs inside of me like small, tiny star. But that would be impossible because as we know if I had a star inside of me then it would consume me, and also Doc Ock would not be able to contol it with his tentacles. The power of a star in the palm of his hands. What did HE know? Anyway, maybe we can just watch Spider-Man 2 next episode instead.

That's right, I'm saying it, with 2/3 of the book done I'm calling it, this is the best book. Of the FNAF trilogy. To be clear, it's like a good book but the fact that we are so over the top in the praise is mostly because of what came before. You know, like a coconut or something?

This is the END of the FNAF Series written by Kira Breed-Wrisley and so far it's the best of the trilogy! Will that energy stay gold? We shall see Pony Boy. That's right, Outsiders reference.

Soldier class, a former mercenary, he's on a full-time mission to scrape a living out of the most dangerous planet in the galaxy. Is he qualified? He's well armed, he's ruthless, and he's tougher than skag hide. And, oh yeah—he's strapped with some of the most exotic weaponry this side of the Vault, not to mention possessing fists like chunks of steel. Zac Finn and his wife and young son had better get on the right side of Roland, because a stopover in orbit has turned into a nightmarish fall to the unforgiving landscape of the Borderlands. Zac hopes to find a strange new alien treasure in the Borderlands to turn his down-spiraling life around. But his wife, Marla, and his son, Cal, just want to survive, and reunite, because catastrophe has left them separated by hundreds of klicks. Their chances aren't good . . . and Roland is all that stands between them and the planet's kill-crazed Psychos and murderous bandits—not to mention the grotesque primals, giant wyrm squids, insane tunnel rats, voracious skags, brutal bruisers, and ruthless mercs.

Okay so things get a little WEIRD with Marla's storyline this episode, I'm not gonna lie folks. We continue reading through Borderlands: The Fallen!

Hey look it's a book by friend of the pod John Shirley! Let's take a look-see! Are Phil and I the biggest Borderlands fans? Absolutely not! So this could go one of two directions.

The last third of this adventure seemingly is more of an adventure than the other two thirds of the book, but it's way too little too late for Max Brook's vision of Minecraft. We will probably get around to reading the other parts of this thrillogy at some point though to see where it leads.

And why is everything made of blocks? But there isn't much time to soak up the sun. It's getting dark, and there's a strange new world to explore! The top priority is finding food. The next is not becoming food. Because there are others out there on the island . . .  like the horde of zombies that appears after nightfall. Crafting a way out of this mess is a challenge like no other. Who could build a home while running from exploding creepers, armed skeletons, and an unstoppable tide of hot lava? Especially with no help except for a few makeshift tools and sage advice from an unlikely friend: a cow.
