Hey readers~ What do we love about our beloved fantasy female main characters? What do we hate? Are there tropes that we love to see every time, or that turn us away immediately? We wanted to talk about some of our favorite MCs (mostly in the Maasverse) from the past seasons and alike.

As we prepare ourselves for the new ACOTAR novel, we’ve been reflecting a lot on the book women we love and what they mean to us. If only we had done this episode after Blood Over Bright Haven - I definitely would’ve talked about Sciona!

Who would you throw in the ring? As usual...It got crazy by the end. Join us for a bonus episode as we discuss our favorite characters and some of the moments that have stood out to us from our favorite fantasy books (and a lot of Throne of Glass / Aelin love!).

We’re back this week for the finale of Blood Over Bright Haven with an emotional rollercoaster of a finish! After the shocking revelations of the previous chapters, Sciona comes up with her final plan to truly stick it to the stuffy mages in the Magistry.

But how does this end? We don’t want to spoil it here but we were left totally wanting more. Sciona truly shocked us all at the end and we had so many feelings about it.

Hey readers~ This week we’re getting into the nitty gritty of some more morality struggles through the lens of Sciona in Blood Over Bright Haven. Now that Sciona has faced the worst of herself (and Tiran), how will she grow from here?

Or… will she? Sciona’s character is going to have to make some difficult decisions, all while she’s dealing with the trials of being a woman in STEM.

In this episode we discuss some heavy-hitting moral issues and also laugh over our own imagined versions of the characters.

Stay tuned till the end for some completely off-the-rails goofery, which we needed after discussing this section of Blood Over Bright Haven!! Join the discussion and let us know what you think. You can find us on Instagram, Facebook, Threads and Youtube @themidnightreaderspodcast.
