The Midnight Readers Podcast

Whew, we warned you, readers! Tory is once again in danger and Darcy has stepped up to the plate as the leader of their growing faction. Will they be able to help Tory, despite the bond? Seth, on the other hand, needs to learn to stay out of meddling with Darcy's life, despite his hilarious attempts to help her. Lionel takes his new power as an opportunity to enforce segregation amongst the orders, while Xavier wrestles with... bedazzling. Join us for a hilarious episode!

Edit: The episode has been updated due to some portions of it having dead air space, which should be fixed now! Thanks to everyone who let us know. 

By the STARS readers, that last book left us fucking reeling. Fated Throne starts off strong - new weapons, changing friendships, and new plans. However, we all know these authors are particularly skilled at bringing us up before we hit rock bottom, so don't get too comfy. Tory's life is in the hands of the one person who can't be trusted and he's gaining power with every page. On the other hand, Darcy teams up with the heirs and puts her phoenix powers to good use. Plus, we meet the Spares as fully-fledged Zodiac Academy students, including one (very beloved) pegasus. Join us on this week's episode! 

Hey Readers... long time, no see! We had a lot of interruptions between this episode and the last. The stars really had it out for us! But we are so excited to get back into the swing of things.  The last chapters of Cursed Fates are full of high highs and low lows - we truly begin to see the unraveling of the world we know in Zodiac Academy. A prophecy is foretold, Lionel gains a new weapon in his fight to the top, and Orion explores his newfound lack of freedom. Diego's order is revealed and some of our central relationships are turned upside down completely! Join us as we finish up the last section (and lament over the insane cliffhanger). 

Cursed Fates continues to shock!! This episode of Cursed Fates covers some upsetting developments for Darcy and Orion, much to our dismay. However, the stars have brought us some character development for some of our faves. Seth has officially redeemed himself, but suddenly he's got an eye for a certain... vampire? Looks like Christy has some competition. Also, the twins get some insight into their parents (and some other family members!) on why they were fated to be our protags. Join us for some discussion!

Last we left off, Tory discovered a very useful trick with her Phoenix flames while Darcy, Orion, and Darius bonded over nymph extermination...what were they looking for? And what will Tory and Darcy do with their newfound abilities? Things heat up this week for some of our favorite characters, including a new potential pairing. Will my theory be proven correct? Yes, but that's beside the point. Join us on this week's episode for more theories and fae shenanigans.

Part 2 brings up back to one of our favorite characters - Xavier! But how is Xavier handling the new guest in Acrux Manor? Back at school, the heirs have almost officially... switched sides? Everyones allegiances are up in the air as the revelation of Tory and Darius' unfortunate fates become realized. Turns out, maybe Seth does have a soul? The heirs hatch a plan to reverse Tory's decision but it seems like an impossible task. Meanwhile, Tory and Darcy learn some new things about their magic that could be crucial to their cause. 

Well, this took a sudden turn! Zodiac Academy has already got us reeling in our seats. Maybe the shadows are getting to us? With the cliffhanger from the last episode, we were jumping to get to the resolution of Shadow Princess, only to walk right into a bigger mess. Now that Clara is free, tensions are high as Tory and Darcy come to terms with their fates... and some of us are having trouble dealing with it, too! Even our opinions about some major characters are being challenged. What do you guys think... are they cursed?? 

This week we follow Tory and Darcy as they try to navigate the issues between them. Emotions are running high...both from characters and podcasters alike. The twins up to this book have been such a force to be reckoned with, but when they're apart all of that power and advantage dissipates...will they be able to resolve and come back together? They have so much to talk about, especially after Tory and Darius's tryst in the Shimmering Springs. And finally Christmas rolls around...the twins return to their ancestral home for the first time. How will it go when some unwelcome guests crash the party? Let's find out.

On this week's episode, things are taking a turn. Tory has the worst date of her life! All while dealing with the growing issue of the shadows inside her. Darcy seems to be having it easier with the shadows, but she's also getting herself into trouble left and right. Our protagonists are struggling to come to overcome their obstacles. Will our favorite partnerships be crushed? Will the heirs be able to withstand the growing feud centered around Tory? Will Orion and Darcy get caught? Let's find out. 

On this episode, we get a look at the consequences of Lionel's actions and how they will come to affect the twins. Darcy and Tory deal with the shadows differently and boy is it ROUGH to get through. Will the shadows change them? Plus, some things are revealed about something we've been questioning for a LONG time. 👀
