Welcome back to the Booked On Fantasy Podcast! Today's episode is a little different. We recently had the amazing opportunity to attend Rebels & Realms Book Convention in Arkansas, and while we were there, we had the opportunity to host a special event, the R.E.A.D. Inn! At this event, we got to interview several members of the Fourth Wing graphic audiobook cast. We sat down with Khaya Fraites, Gabriel Michael, Rob Moreira, and Henry Kramer — the voices behind Violet, Xaden, Ridoc, and Sawyer, and asked all the questions you'd want to ask: favorite lines, dragon bonds, pronunciation disasters, and what it's really been like being part of something this big. Join us as we get up close and personal with the voices of Basgiath. *This episode contains speculation and references events from Fourth Wing, Iron Flame, and Onyx Storm, so if you're not caught up, proceed with caution. PLEASE NOTE: This episode was also recorded live at a convention rather than in our usual setup, so audio quality is a little different than what you're used to from us.

| Quicksilver: Ch 30-37 Spoiler Free Deep Dive | The Darn, The Damned, & The Devoted | 18 Jan 2026 | 02:04:04 | |
Get your tickets for the Rebels & Realms Book Convention and use code "Booked26" for 20% off tickets through January 2026! - REBELS & REALMS EVENT PAGE This week, we dive into the high-stakes emotional rollercoaster of Quicksilver chapters 30 through 37, where the lines between love, duty, and survival are blurred. We start with the devastating realization that the quicksilver is a permanent part of Kingfisher, and removing it would mean his death. But there’s no time to mourn that news before Malcolm’s horde returns to The Darn. We break down the epic battle on the ice, Saeris proving her worth with the blade Solace, and the awe-inspiring moment Lorreth’s "Angel’s Breath" sword turns the tide. However, the victory is cut short by the heartbreaking appearance of an enthralled Everlayne, leading to a high-stakes standoff that sends our group scrambling back to Cahlish for answers. Back at the forge and the library, everyone rushes to plan how they could break the enthrallment with such little time. As if the situation wasn't stressful enough, Saeris discovers the truth about the runes and tattoos appearing on her body. We dissect that heavy conversation in Fisher’s room where he finally explains the meaning of Oshellith, his mother’s prophecies, and his tragic plan to end his own life before the quicksilver takes his mind. Saeris isn't having any of his martyrdom, though, leading to a tension-filled standoff that eventually breaks in the most romantic way possible. We wrap up with a trip through a shadow gate back to Ballard, where the candles are lit, the mating bond is finally accepted, and Kingfisher and Saeris find a rare moment of peace and "new ink" before the storm of the rescue mission begins. All that and more on this week's episode!

Later on, Saeris and Kingfisher take their relationship to the next level with a visit to Fisher's hometown of Ballard. Things get steamy and Saeris gets more magical tattoos which DEFINITELY got us calling out MATE WATCH.

Welcome back for another episode of the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! We are so excited to continue our Empire of Storms coverage with chapters 38-42. In the aftermath of Deanna's takeover and defeat of the Valg fleet, we finally get the moment we've all been waiting for: Aelin and Rowan seal the deal by claiming eachother on the beach!!! Post romance, Aelin finally comes clean to everyone about having had a wyrdkey in her possession the entire time. They proceed to ring up Elena on the wyrd-line, where she reiterates Aelin's mission to get the wyrkeys and the lock, while also confirming that Mala Firebringer was indeed her mother who gave up her immortal life to craft the lock. With the lock mission more important than ever, they set sail for Eyllwe. Along the way, they run into a barely conscious Manon Blackbeak flying toward them thanks to Abraxos. Meanwhile, Elide and Lorcan have a terrifying set of chapters when the ilken come back to haunt them yet again. Lorcan manages to kill them off, but not before they reveal Elide's true identity to him. This leads to another truth reveal, but they ultimately decide to stay together because, well, she's still his "wife" after all.

| Empire of Storms: Ch 30-37 Spoiler-Free Deep Dive | Lions and Wolves and Sea Dragons, Oh my! | 12 Jun 2025 | 02:29:07 | |
Welcome back for another episode of the Booked on Fantasy Podcast! We are so excited to continue our Empire of Storms coverage with chapters 30-37. BUCKLE UP FOLKS CUZ WHAT A SET OF CHAPTERS! Aelin stiff arms Rolfe into allying with her by calling the valg to Skull's Bay (which we have many feelings about that because it was quite literally insane). Despite her risky business, we still thought "what could go wrong?" WELL, turns out Deanna, who has been "hunting" Aelin her whole life, was lurking in the dimensions of the world just waiting for Aelin to use her power with the wyrdkey. Deanna takes over Aelin's body, and it's only the voice of her lover - Rowan - that bring her back to herself, thus preventing the annihilation of Skull's Bay. As if that wasn't enough, our favorite shifter basically has to take out Erawan's ships and FIVE sea wyverns all on her own. The fact that they all lived to see another day is quite literally a miracle. All that and more on today's episode! 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. | |||
