bunyip99 he/him Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 I've been listening to Warbreaker recently when I heard this and had a little chuckle to myself. "The arena was filling, and---in a rare show---all of the gods would be in attendance. Only Weatherlove was late, but he was often unpredictable" Is it just me or is Brandon cracking a funny. Also, for those of you who have listened to the audiobook, why does Lightsong sound like Keanu Reeves' character from Bill & Teds Excellent Adventure and Tonk Fah sounds like a cartoon dog. 10
The Sovereign Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 Yeah I think the joke was intentional . As for the voices, yeah, James Yaegashi has a pretty "distinct" voice. 1
Lazarus52980 Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 Bunyip. are you saying that you liked the voices, or disliked them?
PeterAhlstrom he/him Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 The audiobook is going to be redone with a different narrator. 3
The Sovereign Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 The audiobook is going to be redone with a different narrator. Peter, will Michael Kramer & Kate Reading be doing the new narration?
natc Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 The joke flew over my head. Explain? In spoiler tags, because explaining jokes makes it automatically unfunny, but I can't figure it out. No use ruining it for other people yeah?
Oudeis he/him Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Explanation Weatherlove is God of storms. Storms are difficult to predict. Did you hear the one about the joke that got funnier the more times it was explained? Edited June 26, 2015 by Oudeis 1
Titan Arum Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 A joke at the expense of weather?!?!?! Grrrrr. As a self-professed weather hobbyist, this makes me upset and smile at the same time. I can't laugh too much at this because it is not a very original joke, but it is well placed nonetheless. I also feel like ALL of the Returned can be joked about. Most, if not all, of the current court of Returned have pretty ridiculous names.
Guest Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 Explanation Weatherlove is God of storms. Storms are difficult to predict. Except on Roshar

I have the same reaction, I just got passed that part lol
bunyip99 he/him Posted June 27, 2015 Author Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) I think it fair to say that my appreciation for Michael Kramer and Kate Reading has increased immeasurably. Edited June 27, 2015 by bunyip99
