Booked On Fantasy Podcast

Welcome back for another episode of the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! This episode is a very special episode for us because it marks the beginning of our official Empyrean series coverage!

This is a bonus episode because a very exciting excerpt from the soon to be released sequel to Iron Flame, Onyx Storm, by Rebecca Yarros was dropped in Cosmopolitan Magazine's Winter 2024 edition. You can access the magazine and excerpt titled, "Hotter than Dragonfire," through Kindle Unlimited, or the Libby app. If you are unable to access it that way here is a link: "HOTTER THAN DRAGONFIRE"

This episode will follow a slightly altered format because it is only an excerpt, but it will include a brief recap of the end of Iron Flame, an in depth analysis of key events, and our favorite moments from this excerpt.

Normally we are a spoiler free podcast, but Lorraine and I have both read Fourth Wing and Iron Flame and this episode WILL include spoilers for the entire series.

Welcome back for another episode of the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! Today we are diving into the untitled bonus scene from Heir of Fire. This extra scene takes place within the events of chapter 45 of Heir of Fire. However, we are analyzing it from a post HOF perspective. This scene follows a visit from some fae nobility who stop in Mistward for a night on their way to Doranelle. Let's just say things get heated between both Aelin and Rowan and Aelin and the visitors.

Welcome back for another episode of the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! We continue this week with Heir of Fire chapters 44-47.

This set of chapters was 1 part uplifting (ha, get it?) and 3 parts horrifying discovery, and we are not okay!

Manon and Abraxos finally make the leap, literally, and for a few nerve racking pages their fates hung in the balance, but with a Abraxos' spider silk wings, Manon's sheer determination and grit, and a little dumb luck, they successfully make the crossing. Back in Mistward, Celaena and Rowan are back in their CSI hats and make a horrifying discovery, that leaves the fates of not only them, but everyone in Mistward in the balance. All that and more on today's episode!

Welcome back for another episode of the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! We continue this week with Heir of Fire chapters 40-43.

To our surprise and delight this set of chapters turned out to be an emotional roller coaster ride. We laughed, we cried, and ultimately ended feeling hopeful about what the promise of tomorrow would bring for our beloved characters.

In Rifthold, Chaol’s allegiance is questioned by both Dorian and Aedion. Though he makes it clear he will stand with whatever Dorian decides, will it be enough? Meanwhile, Celaena and Rowan test the boundaries of her abilities at the Beltane celebration which leads to near burnout, a deepening of their relationship, and a major shift in Celaena’s self perception and skills.

Welcome back for another episode of the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! This episode is a big milestone for us, as it is our 50th episode, YAY!!! Thank you to everyone has listened along with us. We looked forward to the many more episodes to come. Today we officially kick off part 2 of Heir of Fire, as we continue with chapters 36-39.

Chaol and Aedion hatch a plan to get information from recently returned Adarlanian soldiers. Using a clever drinking game, they meet Commander Jensen, a solider recently returned from Noll, which is home a to a mysterious black stone tower. Meanwhile, Manon embarks on a side quest to get spidersilk from the mythical Stygian spiders. Most people have to bargain for this priceless material, but not Manon. With the help of Abraxos she manages to flee with her life and the spidersilk. Celaena and Rowan have a much needed tattoo therapy session where she discloses more about her past than she’s ever shared with anyone. Their conversation makes it clear their relationship has turned the corner for the better, at least we hope.

Welcome back to the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! Today we are covering Heir of Fire chapters 31-35, completing part one! 

Manon finally gets airborne with our cat reincarnated wyvern, Abraxos, who would much rather sniff flowers than risk his life flying. But once airborne for the first time, his joy was undeniable.

Back in Mistward, Celaena finally tries to befriend Rowan and snoop a little bit, only to be cruelly shut down. Fortunately, there was no time to stay enemies because a training session gone wrong led to the discovery of a giant hangry ancient creature. Upon arriving back to the fortress Emrys, ever the emotionally intelligent father figure, gets everyone to come together with a home cooked meal and gives them a stern but loving talk.

As usual, our episode deep dive will include chapter summaries with our “Book Report,” an in depth analysis of key events, and our favorite moments from today’s chapters.
