We’ve reached the end of The Strength of the Few, and for our final episode of the season we’re going LIVE to break down the biggest twists, wildest theories, and most unhinged moments of the entire book. From world‑shattering reveals to multiversal madness, this finale had us screaming, spiralling, and questioning everything we thought we knew about the Hierarchy Saga.

In this special episode, we dive into:

• The Hot Topics of the Few, including the explosive worldbuilding across three realms, the morally grey character arcs, the political and philosophical themes behind the Hierarchy, and whether the pacing was genius… or just chaos.
• Our biggest theories for Book 3, from the three Vis’s representing different moral paths, to the idea that only one Vis is “real,” to the possibility that the realms are sequential, not parallel.
• Multiverse mayhem, including betrayal predictions, realm convergence wars, Caeror travelling worlds, Ostius’s true motives, and whether Vis has been split before, over and over again.
• The Alupi, the torc, the triskeles, and every unanswered mystery that’s keeping us awake at night.
• Your live reactions, including the funniest 1‑star reviews we’ve ever read.

And of course…

We close the book with The Strength of the Review, giving our final star ratings for The Strength of the Few and celebrating the end of an absolutely wild season.

Thank you for joining us on this journey through three realms, three Vis’s, and one of the most ambitious fantasy sequels we’ve ever read. This is the end of this season, but we’ll be back soon with a brand‑new book to explore… and of course, more Faithfully Fantasy.

Byeee!

📚 The Strength of the Few — Episode 7 (Chapters 67–80) FINALÉ

We’ve reached the end of The Strength of the Few, and these final chapters did not hold back. Between brutal deaths, impossible choices, returning ghosts, collapsing bridges, and Vis stepping into a role we absolutely were not ready for… this finale left us screaming, grieving, and begging for Book 3 immediately.

In this episode, we break down Chapters 67–80 and all the moments that shattered us, shocked us, or made us yell “HOW DID WE FALL FOR THIS TWIST AGAIN?!”

Here’s what we get into:

• Our Confirmed, Cursed, or Completely Unhinged theories, including L‑Vis’s shiny new arm, Cristoval’s heartbreaking sacrifice, Ulciscor’s imprisonment, Vis becoming the new Ka, and Callidus returning as an iunctus.
• How we’re feeling about the ending, from the emotional whiplash to the cliffhanger that left us desperate for answers.
• The biggest “oh vek” moments, like Aequa’s devastating death, Vis finishing Ka in Obertium, the family returning as iunctii, Caeror’s terrifying turn in Luceum, Netiqret’s sacrifice, and Doggy Diago nearly dying.
• The questions breaking our brains, including the three‑pinned brooch, the crushed silver torc, the 18 Gleaners, the military’s body‑collecting habits, and what on earth is happening with L‑Caeror.
• Our final predictions, from Vis becoming the new Ka (officially), to L‑Vis vs R‑Vis, to Caeror traveling realms, to Ostius turning against Vis, to the future of Res and the army of the dead.

Join us as we wrap up this wild, emotional, mind‑bending book and get ready for what comes next.

And don’t forget, we’re going live on Instagram Saturday 16th May at 10pm UK / 5pm ET to talk all things Strength of the Few.

This week’s chapters were absolutely wild. Between acid rivers, world‑traveling iunctii, political chaos, and one very good dog, we had a lot to scream about. In this episode, we break down Chapters 53–66 and all the reveals that had us yelling “WHAT?!” at the book.

Here’s what we get into:

• Our Confirmed, Cursed, or Completely Unhinged theories, including the princeps ceding to Ka, Ahmose’s tragic death, Vis’s father showing up in Luceum, and what that means for the timeline.
• How we’re feeling about the book, from the realms finally connecting in meaningful ways to Luceum delivering some of the biggest reveals of the entire story.
• The biggest “oh vek” moments, like the Aurora Columnai appearing in all three worlds, the horrifying truth behind the Infernis river, Ka’s constant sleeping, the child‑nomarch twist, and Vis performing DIY surgery on himself.
• The questions breaking our brains, including what Veridius is doing, whether Caeror is alive, where Ulciscor disappeared to, and how the Hierarchy hasn’t noticed Cristoval is missing.
• Our wild predictions, from Cristoval’s future sacrifice to a major incident in Duat, to Graine’s family returning, to Lanistia’s prison break, to Ka’s true identity, and whether Ostius has a double in Obertium.

Plus, this week’s Sapping for Secrets asks:

If you had to use a talent you absolutely do NOT have to complete a high‑stakes mission… what would be your worst nightmare?

Join us as we spiral, theorise, and try to keep up with a book that refuses to slow down.

Next week: we finish the book!!! Chapters 67–80.

This week’s chapters were absolutely unhinged in the best way. Between hospital‑wing surprises, world‑hopping revelations, heartbreaking backstories, and Veridius casually rewriting everything we thought we knew, this section had us screaming, theorising, and clutching our books like our lives depended on it.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Our Confirmed, Cursed, or Completely Unhinged theories, including Relucia’s devastating Sapper past, Ostius’s world‑traveling chaos, and Vis finally getting answers from Veridius.
• How we’re feeling about the book, from Luceum becoming a new emotional comfort realm to the roller‑coaster pacing that keeps flipping our favourite worlds every week.
• The biggest “oh vek” moments, like Vis seeing someone who looks a lot like his father, Relucia’s three‑year nightmare in a Sapper, the truth behind the Labyrinth’s control column, and Veridius explaining himself in a way that… kind of makes sense.
• The questions breaking our brains, including why Ostius dragged R‑Vis to Luceum, whether the timelines are aligned, and what R‑Vis’s interference is actually doing.
• Our wild predictions, from Vis’s dad synchronising, to Tara becoming a love interest, to Ka traveling between realms, to dormant Gleaners waiting beneath Ka’s pyramid.

Join us as we spiral, theorise, and try to untangle three realms, three Vis’s, and one book that refuses to give us a moment of peace. Next week: Chapters 53–66.

This week’s chapters were absolute chaos in the best possible way. Between pyramid nightmares, chariot races, secret prisons, and Vis accidentally channeling the King’s Champion, we had a lot to scream about. In this episode, we break down Chapters 25–37 and all the moments that left us confused, emotional, or fully unhinged.

Here’s what we get into:

• Our Confirmed, Cursed, or Completely Unhinged theories, including Vis’s pyramid disaster and whether he’s destined to become the new King’s Champion in L.
• How we’re feeling about the book, from being hooked on Res, obsessed with O, and finally intrigued by the chaos unfolding in L.
• The biggest “oh vek” moments, like the chariot race, the secret military prison reveal, Dyago the alupi returning, and Vis nearly turning into one of the creepy ruin guides.
• The questions breaking our brains, including why alupi hate Will, what’s going on with Vis’s ghost‑mode in L, and how the iunctii timeline suddenly shifted.
• Our wild predictions, from Ahmose’s fate and the truth about Callidus’s body, Livia and Eidhin’s future, and whether the Will is being harvested in L without anyone knowing.

Join us as we spiral, theorise, and try to keep track of three Vis’s, three realms, and one book that refuses to let us breathe. Next week: Chapters 38–52.

Rebecca Yarros has officially announced a new book in the Empyrean series, coming September 29th, and we are losing our minds. In this episode, we break down what this could mean for the saga, the fandom, and all the theories we’ve been cooking since Onyx Storm left us emotionally unwell.

To celebrate the announcement, we’re also turning to the Divine Rots to help us answer some of the biggest, wildest, most unhinged questions of the entire series. Will they give us clarity? Probably not. Will we get anything right? Doubtful.

But will you have a good time? Absolutely.

Join us as we spiral, speculate, manifest, and scream about everything this new release might bring. And if you’ve got theories of your own, drop them in the comments , we want to hear all of them.

This week’s read‑along takes us deep into the chaos of The Strength of the Few, and Vis is somehow juggling trauma, politics, murder attempts, duels, and multiverse logistics like it’s a normal Tuesday. In this episode, we break down Chapters 14–24 and all the wild moments that had us screaming, theorising, and questioning every single character’s life choices.

Here’s what we get into:

• Lanistia’s chilling confession about her blackout attack and the ominous phrase she remembers from the ruins.
• Emissa’s emotional reveal about why she stabbed Vis during the Iudicium and the dangerous favour she offers now.
• Vis’s unhinged infiltration plan, convincing a Gleaner to “kill” him just enough to sneak into Duat.
• Deaglan’s chaotic new life in Lucium, complete with accusations, omens, and a duel with the King’s Champion.
• Our biggest questions and predictions, from Sappers and Adoption to who’s cheating blood tests and what the Festival of Pletuna is really setting up.

If you’re reading along, tell us your thoughts, this section was packed, confusing, brilliant, and absolutely wild. And next week, we’re diving into Chapters 25–37, so get ready.

📚 Season 7 Premiere — The Strength of the Few (Chapters 1–13)

We’re back, and Season 7 is officially here. This time we’re diving straight into Book 2 of the Hierarchy Saga, The Strength of the Few, and picking up right where Vis left us, traumatised, determined, and already in trouble.

In this first episode of the season, we talk about:

• How we feel about the book so far

First impressions, early shocks, and the vibes this sequel is giving us.

• Lucian’s whole aesthetic

Why it giving us ancient‑Egypt energy and what that might mean for the worldbuilding.

• Ka’s identity

Our theory that Ka might be someone Vis already knows… and actually cares about.

• Bely in other realms

Why we think we haven’t seen the last of her and how she might show up again.

All this and more as we kick off a brand‑new season and continue Vis’s journey into even deeper chaos. If you’re reading along, tell us your thoughts, this sequel is already wild.

Welcome to Random Book Review, the chaotic little series where we go hunting for hidden gems. I pick a completely random book, commit to reading the whole thing, and then come here to give you the good, the bad, and the honest truth.

This week’s pick is *Dragon Shifter’s Mates by Eva Chase*.

You’ll get a spoiler‑free summary so you can decide whether you want to dive in yourself and come back with your own conclusions. And if you have read it already, I want to hear everything, your thoughts, your rants, your favourite moments. Drop them in the comments and let’s talk about it.

We made it. After weeks of conspiracies, heartbreak, political chaos, Labyrinth nightmares, and more theories than Vis has secrets, we’ve reached the Season 6 finale of our read‑along journey through The Will of the Many. This book has taken us everywhere, emotionally, mentally, and now it’s time to lock in our final thoughts before the long wait for Book 2.

In this grand finale, we’re breaking down:

🔒 Theory Lockdown

Our final, official, no‑take‑backs theories for the saga. Who’s playing who? What’s really going on with the Will?

🏛️ The Empire in Ruins

A last look at how The Will of the Many reshapes its world, power, politics, secrets, and the terrifying implications of everything Vis has uncovered.

👀 What’s Next for Faithfully Fantasy

Stick around until the very end, we’ve got an announcement about what’s coming after this season and what you can expect from us as we head into the next chapter of the podcast.

Thank you for reading, theorising, spiralling, and screaming with us all season. This journey through The Will of the Many has been wild, emotional, and ridiculously fun. And don’t wander too far, we’re coming back sooner than you think.

📚 The Will of the Many Read‑Along — Chapters 62–End of Season

It’s our final read‑along episode of the season, and we’re going out with a chaotic, theory‑packed bang. This week we dive into Chapters 62 to the end and tackle some of the biggest questions yet:

• What did Veridius offer Eidhin to betray Vis

• Clones, copies, echoes… how does this realm actually work

• Who would be the perfect director for a future adaptation

We wrap up our last discussion before shifting gears next week into a full therapy session dedicated to all our theories for the next book in the saga.

If you’ve been reading along with us, drop your thoughts in the comments, this is your last chance to scream with us before we dive into the speculation abyss.

📚 The Will of the Many Read‑Along : Chapters 48–61

This week takes us through one of the most intense arcs so far: Vis facing the Labyrinth, returning to Suus, getting dragged deeper into Relucia’s schemes, and juggling politics, trauma, and teenage chaos all at once. We cover the biggest moments, from the Festival of Pletuna to the Suus trip, the cave confession with Emissa, the senators’ secret meeting, and Vis’s move into Class Three as the Iudicium approaches.

We also share:

• Our MVP of the week

• Favourite moments

• What we’re struggling with

• Our predictions for what’s coming next

If you’re reading along, tell us your thoughts so far, this section was packed.

📚 The Will of the Many Read‑Along — Chapters 36–47

The mysteries keep stacking, the tension keeps rising, and this week even Sian couldn’t resist jumping into the speculation pit. In this episode, we explore Chapters 36–47, a section packed with reveals, uneasy alliances, and those subtle details you only catch on a re‑read, exactly the kind of insight Sian brings to the table this time.

We also take a breather from the chaos of the Academy with a few personal questions designed to dodge the sappers… though whether we succeeded is up for debate. It gets delightfully unhinged.

And at the very end of the episode, we dive into a major spoiler discussion for Iron Flame. If you haven’t read it yet and want to go in fresh, make sure to watch out for that final segment.

Join us as we theorise, overthink, and emotionally spiral our way through this next chunk of the saga. Let us know your thoughts so far, what’s confusing you, what’s thrilling you, and what theories you’re cooking up as the plot thickens.

📚 The Will of the Many Read‑Along — Chapters 24–35

We’re deep into the story now, and this week’s section delivers tension, reveals, and enough character intrigue to keep us theorising for days. In this episode, we break down Chapters 24–35 and all the moments that had us pausing, gasping, or scribbling notes like we’re already in the Academy ourselves.

We crown our MVP of the week, the character who absolutely stole the show in this stretch of chapters.

We introduce a brand‑new segment where we dig into the hidden meanings and secret messages behind certain character names. Is Islington being clever, chaotic, or both? You decide.

We share our predictions for what’s coming next, from the political undercurrents to the personal stakes that are starting to sharpen.

If you’re reading along with us, drop your thoughts in the comments. Who’s your MVP? What clues are you picking up? And what do you think is waiting for us in the next chapters?

📚 The Will of the Many Read‑Along — Chapters 11–23

Our journey through The Will of the Many continues, and this week marks our final stretch before entering the Academy. JC is practically vibrating with excitement, Sian is counting the minutes until we get there, and the book… well, the book is not making it easy to stay calm.

In this episode, we dig into Chapters 11–23 and share how we’re feeling about the story so far, what’s clicking, what’s confusing, and the moments that genuinely made us stop and stare at the page. There’s that speech that left us thinking about power, loyalty, and the bigger game at play, plus a handful of early favourites that are starting to stand out.

And of course, JC brings a fresh batch of theories about what might be waiting for us once we finally step through the Academy gates. Some of them? Surprisingly reasonable. Others? Peak chaos. Exactly how we like it.

If you’re reading along, jump into the comments and tell us how the book is treating you so far. We’re dying to know your thoughts as we head into the next phase of this world.

📚 The Will of the Many Read Along — Chapters 1–10

Our read along era has officially begun. In this episode, JC and Sian dive into Chapters 1–10 of The Will of the Many and unpack all the chaos, curiosity, and character driven intrigue that James Islington throws at us right from the start.

We’re sharing our first reactions, the moments that hooked us, the things we’re still wrestling with, and of course, our early favourites (yes, we’re already emotionally attached). Expect plenty of theories and wild speculation, including:

• Viridius & Vis: Their dynamic has us side‑eyeing Ulciscor’s motives and wondering what’s really going on behind the curtain.
• Character Names: Are these names just names… or is Islington hiding clues in plain sight?

If you’re reading along with us, jump into the comments and tell us your first impressions. Who grabbed your attention? What’s confusing you? What theories are already brewing?

The journey has begun, and it’s already getting deliciously complicated. Let’s see where this world takes us next.

Kicking off a brand new segment, JC and Sian dive into the ultimate literary showdown. In this premiere of Convince Me to Read, Sian steps into the spotlight armed with passion, persuasion, and a spoiler free arsenal of reasons why The Will of the Many by James Islington deserves a place in Juan’s 2026 reading lineup.

She’ll break down what makes this book her standout favourite of the year, world building, themes, characters, vibes, all without giving away a single twist. Meanwhile, JC listens, questions, and judges whether the hype is real enough to earn the coveted spot as the podcast’s next season long read‑along pick.

Will Sian succeed and secure the win for her beloved book, or will she face a very public, very chaotic moment of defeat? Stick around until the end to hear JC’s final verdict.
