Fourth Wing and Iron Flame – What We Loved (and Didn’t)
Thursday Feb 13, 2025

In this episode of The Witchling's Read, we dive into the world of Fourth Wing and Iron Flame just days before Onyx Storm drops. We chat about our ratings, favourite moments, and the characters that stuck with us the most—whether it’s Violet’s growth, the tension between Xaden and Dain, or the found family dynamic that makes this series so compelling. We also explore the contrast between the brutal world of Basgiath and the more collaborative Griffin Riders, and, of course, we discuss that infamous miscommunication trope. Plus, we debate whether we’d rather ride a dragon or a griffin and why we’d absolutely haunt anyone who burned our books.
This episode is full of laughter, bookish chaos, and strong opinions—especially when it comes to Dain. Join us as we get hyped for Onyx Storm and unpack all things Empyrean!
