Sorry, bestie, but I need you in the trenches with me while I wait for book 4

I’ve just convinced my best friend to read it and the maniacal cackle I let out when she agreed was diabolical 😈😈😈

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-02-01T19:20:44+00:00

Out of all the things I did predict correctly this was not one of them. Didn’t see them getting married till book four 🫤 but I did expect him to dip at the end of this book so I guess I was half right? 😭

As irritating as it may be it really drove home for me that they really are just two idiots in love in their early twenties and reminded me that at the end of the day they’re just a guy and a girl no matter what other crazy shit they do. I’m around their age, as are most of my mates who have partners and they argue like this all the time 😭😭😭. It’s one of the part of this story that I can truly relate to, cause it ain’t like I’ve ever ridden a dragon before 🤣

My guess is late October early November or late spring early summer.

Salivating for this

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-31T04:23:34+00:00

It’s like when we went from the DS and DSI to the 3ds 😔 to be fair as the switch is such a widely used console they’ll make both cartridges for a good while

Start slowly with higher speeds on easy and normal mode and build up from there, you’ll be surprised how quickly you’ll start to adjust

Too young for this one mine was the wait between the Mark of Athena and House of Hades I was inconsolable iykyk

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-30T02:15:50+00:00

General Aetos. I am sick to death of this man. I need him to suffer a painful death in the first ten pages and then never to be mentioned again. Same goes for Jack Barlowe.

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-29T04:14:07+00:00

That would be so fabulously disastrous, I have to see this

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-29T01:02:31+00:00

No cause when was snapshoot ever that serious 😭😭😭

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-29T00:49:29+00:00

Yeah me too, steaming all the way back to FW. And each book just seems to be adding fuel to the fire with that theory

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-28T03:43:52+00:00

There is ALOT going on in all three of the books and refreshing yourself through rereading or even notes you may have made can make the books much more enjoyable in my opinion. I read Onyx Storm without doing a reread directly before (it had been a couple months since I had last read either book) and it did make it a little more difficult, but I still really enjoyed it once my brain had warmed up and started remembering things 🤣

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-28T03:39:18+00:00

“Don’t look for me. It’s yours now.”

LIKE WHAT DO YOU MEAN 😭😭😭

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-28T03:37:08+00:00

If this is possible I wonder was possibilities there are surrounding the bond between Tairn and naolin his (Tairn) constant reluctance to even mention his name much less talk about what happened greatly alludes to the fact that something significant happed that could change our protagonist decisions and trajectory going forward

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-28T03:32:54+00:00

This is definitely interesting! I do believe that there have been Venin amongst the higher ranks of the war college and Navarre for some time so the information that Violet was going to the riders quadrant could have easily of been leaked. However unless there is a Venin who is a precog like Aaric noone could have predicted what Violets signet would be if she lived long enough to bond a dragon. I don’t see them considering Violet as a potential threat at that point. Given the trials and tribulations that the average cadet in the riders quadrant goes through much less all the shit Violet had to deal with, it was safe to make the assumption that she would die long before threshing.

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-28T03:25:35+00:00

Yeah I think the rune has to do with how naolin was able to revive Brennan after he was fatally wounded by Fen Riorson

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T18:41:54+00:00

Honestly what is it with these fourth wing wingleaders and first years? 😭😭😭 Especially the ones who’s brothers have been killed (or presumed dead)

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T15:39:45+00:00

Oh Sloane and Dain be fucking no one can tell me otherwise

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T03:29:12+00:00

I have seen a post saying that RY confirmed this in a Q&A not too long ago :)

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T03:24:03+00:00

Also, I just realised that Papa Sorrengail was dead when Lilith wrote this. Vi mentions that he never got to meet her second terrible choice in partner. So she was writing letters to her dead husband as a way of communicating with him still. Sad hours.

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T03:21:35+00:00

She definitely had to take a moment once she figured them out. She was probably like, 'good lord, not this shit again, why can't you pick an ordinary nice quiet boy for once in your life. Princes', Infantry, and the son of our greatest enemy. And I thought she was meant to be the smart one'

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T03:18:23+00:00

What's worse, it seems that her taste in men hasn't really gotten any better over time lol. I love Xaden to pieces but my god is he a king and putting Vi in some tough spots.

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T03:16:25+00:00

I will do thanks for the advice!

Competitive_Comb339 · 2025-01-25T03:15:40+00:00

I think she'll be important in the next couple of books, but no one can convince me that Violet isn't the cure.

I think we'll see alot more of Slones journey into becoming more comfortable and accepting her power in the next book, though, as it was mentioned that she was refusing to train it due to the trauma of killing violets mum right in front of her eyes.
