The Wind Weaver

By: Julie Johnson

Narrated by: Billie Fulford-Brown

Magic and adventure swirl through this spellbinding romantasy where a young woman reignites the embers of an ancient prophecy, unleashing a storm that could save her realm or doom them all.

Fear of maegic plagues war-torn Anwyvn. Halflings like Rhya Fleetwood are killed on sight. But Rhya’s execution is interrupted by an unexpected savior—one far more terrifying than her would-be killers. The mysterious and mercenary Commander Scythe. In the clutches of this new enemy, Rhya finds herself fighting for her life in the barren reaches of the Northlands. Yet the farther she gets from home, the more she learns that nothing is as it seems—not her fearsome captor, not the blight that ravages her dying realm, not even herself.

For Rhya is no ordinary halfling. The strange birthmark on her chest and the wind she instinctively calls forth means she is a Remnant, one of four souls scattered across Anwyvn, fated to restore the balance of maegic…or die trying.

But mastering the power inside her is only the beginning. Desire for the Commander—a man she can never trust, a man with plans of his own—burns just as fiercely as the tempests beating against her rib cage for release. Rhya must choose: smother the flames…or let them consume her.

World building

Fantastic start to a series. Just had some pacing issues and could have been shortened. This just felt too long

An okay beginning

I guess my expectations for this book were too high because I find myself judging it so harshly. I wanted to love this book but I only liked it - I’m not excited for the next book but I am willing to read the next book to see where this goes…

I need more!

The world building in this book was incredible! The character development was great, the burn was SO slow, and my girl JJ is so good at banter, I love it! I almost regret reading/listening to this as soon as it released, because now I have to wait for the next book lol. I can’t wait!

Soooooooo Gooood!!

First Fae book and it did not disappoint, I can not wait for the next book !

Slow start, strong finish

Once you get through the first third, the pace picks up. It’s a very slow burn, but enjoyable. Interesting world building. The narrator was ok but sometimes the tine didn’t quite match up with what I thought it would be
