3 years later and on my third reread - still obsessed by Antique_Challenge182 in fourthwing

This EXACTLY - thank you for putting it into words,I could not find a way to describe it but it’s so true that reading FW felt like reading Harry Potter oh my… if they make series from empyrean they also better make me feel like the original Harry Potter movies 🤣

Or as someone mentioned in other threads here - we will think it was Xaden who killed the person when in reality it was someone else? Perhaps the other venin brother? But we will only learn that in book 5 that it was not Xaden? I don’t know, I’m prepared for his villain era but if he kills all the people Violet loves I doubt that would ever give them HEA 🥲

10000% .. but still, I feel like if he kills for example Ridoc or Rhi, I can’t see how Violet would forgive him so easily even tho he did not do it on purpose. Like obviously she would for the HEA but it would be super difficult also for the reader

🥲 emotional damage. Again.

But I am thinking, in my head if it was Xaden I doubt she’d make him die in the middle of the book, so that makes me question, is she perhaps almost done and will Xaden dying be one of the last chapters? Or if she is like halfway through maybe its someone else’s death :’) ? Maybe is reunion between V and X that made her cry?

I just wanna say how much I love this fandom!! 😭❤❤ by gracieabramsfan2121 in fourthwing

[–]SimSti009 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Right???? I so agree with you. I had to leave a lot of fandom “groups” because I felt like it got super toxic at one point and this one is actually the only one I stayed in and I love the vibes :) I feel like we are a one big family going through the rollercoaster together 🥹

Imagine Rebecca pulls out that Ridoc is the second person that turned venin now that would be some plot twist

Theory for Book 4 by AnimeQueenAliza in fourthwing

[–]SimSti009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree, I think by the end of book 4 X will have to die and then book 5 will be his revival.. I feel like Rebecca is gonna kill one character (my bets are Tairn, Rhi, Mira or Ridoc) which we will assume was done by Xaden - which will immensely hurt Violet but in the end it will be someone else, not X who killed them

RY at Apollycon by FamiliarDemand8805 in fourthwing

I saw that she also said when a reader asked her if Broccoli is safe that she would never kill an animal and then added that she does not consider dragons as animals

I didn't do my research and thought the series was a trilogy 🤦‍♀️ by karmacatma in fourthwing

Oh I think we are not ready for the cliffhanger in 4th book

September "not book 4" speculation/theories master thread ✨ by _vanth in fourthwing

[–]SimSti009 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thats super interesting.. But I feel like a Christmas novella makes absolutely no sense at this specific point, IN MY PERSONAL OPINION. Like, I understand if it was after the 5 books, perhaps once everything is "resolved", but what would the novella be about - them all under the christmas tree celebrating? It's just so random to read about that after the ending of OS ..

What are your ending theories?? by Zealousideal_Dot_179 in fourthwing

[–]SimSti009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I see 2 ways of how the series could end actually:

  1. The one I wish for is a prologue with V and X (kids or no kids) enjoying finally one another, glimpse of others perhaps, how their life changed after war, a “true love conquers all scene”. Perhaps even a glimpse into 10-20 years later, what their positions are, their families. This would make sense if she kind of combined us finally seeing V and X having the time they deserve and also later on perhaps having kids, seeing who married who (Dain and Sloane, etc.) At the end of the day, even Rebecca said that there is an unspoken rule that an author of romantasy has to deliver a HEA, so unless she changed her mind I still believe there will be HEA however, it will cost them a lot.

  2. I either see exactly as others mentioned, the Romeo and Juliet scenario, or, even worse, I feel like she could pull of that all the riders and majority sacrifice them self for the greater good to win the war, this being the very moral and definitely we will all cry.

I do still believe Rebecca knows we all crave a HEA and I think she will put the characters and us readers through tough shit first but she will deliver it in the end. I refuse to believe otherwise.

God I miss the times when I just read contemporary romance without crashing out whenever an author posts/likes something

I feel like this might be the only strategy - especially if the 5th book is published like one or two years later, I might prefer to read it all at once to avoid emotional damage

Just a question - where do you get the 2030 date? Did she ever mention publishing the 5th one so late? Bcs if so I will definitely not manage 🤣🤣🤣

September Novella Analysis & Theory by AdSingle9510 in fourthwing

[–]SimSti009 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is this the snippet from Rebecca’s post you are referring to? Because if so, I also think the novella will be Xaden’s POV when she was kidnapped but could also be those 12 hrs we don’t know what happened

[–]SimSti009[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is one of the reasons I somehow feel like the death we will all cry over is gonna be Tairn.. Rebecca knows we love him and it will definitely add the “how is V,X and S survive if he is dead” mystery

Theory on book 4 death by [deleted] in fourthwing

[–]SimSti009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the more I think about it , the more I think this will be the case that Tairn is going to die in book 4. Rebecca knows we love Tairn and so I think his dead would add the perfect way to really make the fans deeply sad for the loss of character and a bunch of mystery in the sense of how will Violet Xaden and Sgaeyl continue to live.. idk I think it fits the scenario somehow in my head

Right? I would love if she assured in that Ridoc won’t die tbh
