Episode 48: Midweek Special: Top 10 Gut Punch Moments from Science Fiction Fantasy

This is a somewhat spoiler-ific discussion and rating of some of the top moments from science fiction and fantasy books and movies that hit you in the feels, wrench your heart, touch you to the soul. We each brought our separate ideas, pitched them to each other, and debated until we sorted a top 10. Not everything we discussed made the list. Listen and see what you agree with.We didn't deeply discuss the plots from which these moments come from, but it's impossible to introduce them without some spoiling of content. So be warned, we've drawn from the following - listen at your own risk!- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix- Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows- The Return of the King- Star Trek II:  The Wrath of Khan- Moreta:  Dragonlady of Pern- The Walking Dead (comics and TV series)- Ender's Game- A Song of Ice & Fire, specifically A Storm of Swords- HBO's Game of Thrones- Warbreaker- Mistborn:  The Final Empire- Flowers for Algernon- Where the Red Fern Grows- A Monster CallsAnd finally, two books from The Wheel of Time:  The Gathering Storm, and A Memory of Light.Join us on Discord for more conversations with a growing community of fantasy fiction fans: https://discord.gg/jMWyVJ6qKkAccess our patron-only content, unlock the opportunity to listen and chat during live recordings, and explore other benefits by supporting us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/FantasyForTheAgesRate & review us at Apple Podcast or wherever you download content.
