I've said it before and I'll say it again: SUSAN DENNARD IS A QUEEN

I truly love how, though each of these books features POV of the 4 MC's, every book focuses just a bit more on one character.

Aeduan's book was everything I had hoped for. I've been intrigued by Aeduan since Truthwitch. He is somewhat of a morally grey character and in the first two books it's hard to discern who's side he is on.

Death follows wherever you go, yet by the grace of the Wells, you always outrun your own.

Bloodwitch stole my breath, stabbed me in the heart, and left me bleeding and waiting for the next installment. And I don't really mind, because it's the best kind of pain.

First of all, I must say that Susan Dennard upped her game in Bloodwitch. With every book in the series, she becomes a more superior master of words and aims straight for the readers' hearts. She feels blood and she strikes. Just like her Bloodwitch.

It's not a secret that Aeduan became my number one favorite character from the moment I laid my eyes on him in book 1. Damn, such kind of chemistry is rare for me, because I usually require proof of worthiness from my book boyfriends, but with Aeduan I was ready to jump any cliff from the start. But I would give up my claim on Aeduan if only to see him and Iseult interact. Do you want to stab me in the heart? Go ahead. Do you want to throw me off the cliff? Go ahead. It's true love's power if you ask my sadistic beating heart.

From the day she had stabbed Aeduan in the heart, that heart had become hers—and she would not let this be his end.

But what Aeduan and Iseult throw our way in Bloodwitch is PURE FIRE AND ICE COMBINED. It is similar to ice being so cold it burns like fire. I will stop babbling and will simply call it one of the best relationship developments ever!

I will go down with that ship no matter what!

I was so eager to learn Aeduan's story, and I knew it was going to be sad, but I have never imagined how sad and how devastating it would be.

But there was no reason. There never had been. He was just a child, trapped in the wreckage of war. He had not done this, he had not caused this. Yet he had lost his life to it all the same.

He was a Bloodwitch no longer. He was a monk no longer. He was man, just a man. It would have to be enough.

But a great deal of solace for me was the fact that Aeduan was walking around shirtless, a lot.
Instead, she simply watched as the seconds ground past and internally chanted, Stasis. A futile refrain really, for once Aeduan had straightened fully and set to removing his shirt, it became too frustrating for Iseult to endure.

Oh Boy, how frustrating it was when he was putting his shirt back on! *dreamy sigh*

Coming back to the plot and characters, I see what Susan Dennard did here. First, we have a slow start, focusing more on shirtless Aeduan, but after a while, we jump straight into chaos: all of the characters at once find themselves in a tight knot. Susan Dennard jumps from POV to POV, finishing every chapter on the highest peak of tension, catching her readers in a situation where they don't know how to handle that continuous culmination. And then, of course, we end up in multiple huge cliffhangers (view spoiler)

My mind is blown away with multiple directions this series is taking, and I can't wait to jump in and follow the threads!

My only complaint is that sometimes it feels like years passed in the story but in the books' time it has only been three or four weeks. How?! I don't know how I feel about the fact that there's going to be 2 more books. I guess that book 4 is necessary and going to concentrate on Iseult, but a lot of stuff may happen in two more books i.e. someone important might die. I hope not, otherwise, I'll go to war with Ms. Dennard.

For now, though, I believe Susan Dennard will complete with flying colours what she has initiated so brilliantly.

Some one-liners made me cringe, and laugh at characters that were supposed to be threatening. There were instances of information quite literally being repeated in the space of a few lines, as if the audience weren’t trusted to understand (despite being explicitly clear the first time). And her world building is just…questionable. So often in this book, you’d come across information that was vital to the story, that was only understood if you read the novella first. Which is fine, because I had read it. But it did make the entire series so far read as if she reached book 3, realised the information we needed had been missed, wrote a novella with all the important backstory…then came back to write book 3 as if that was the plan all along. While that may very well have been the intentional layout, to me it just seemed like haphazard world building, and could definitely have been woven in more subtly.

That being said, this book was satisfying in that we finally start seeing the various storylines come together. Though I do think getting everyone in the right place at the right time seemed a matter of convenience most of the time, I did enjoy reading how it all connected, and seeing some of the characters meet. Again, Aeduan was definitely the strong point of this book for me, so the title is apt. But many of the characters had an interesting perspective that I was eager to see continue. Besides Safi. Her chapters just…*inhales* no.

So, very mixed bag for a book I had high hopes for, which admittedly is probably why this review seems like a more negative 3 stars than your standard decent rating would get. But generally, it was fast paced for the most part, and the pacing had in fact evened itself out compared to the first couple. It was entertaining, and the plot itself is still something I’m intrigued about. I just can’t help but think the execution still remains this series’ downfall…

Emotional and darker than ever before Bloodwitch is a worth it sequeal to this wonderfully complicated and increseasingly twisted world.

Bloodwitch centers its story, as the title suggests, in my precious Aeduan. And boy did I appreciate that.

~4.5 Stars~

Ladies, gentlemen, and variations thereupon, it is official: Susan Dennard is the modern queen of worldbuilding. It's seriously been a long while since I've read a book series with such sophisticated and nuanced worldbuilding, where each instalment - practically each chapter - constantly builds upon the world and story in such layered and deft ways. I am honestly enraptured by the world Ms Dennard has created - The Witchlands deserves to go down in history as one of the most legendary & iconic fantasy worlds in the modern pantheon, on par with Westeros, the Wizarding World, and Narnia.

But enough waxing poetic about the worldbuilding, let's move onto what truly made me fall head over heels in love with this story: the characters. I'll admit that it wasn't until I'd read this third book that I was truly sold on all the characters in this series, but now I can confidently say that literally every character holds a place in my heart - still, special mention goes out to my ultimate and absolute faves, Aeduan and Iseult. These two truly shined in this book particularly, where they very much take centre stage, and I am completely obsessed with them; both individually and together. Their relationship is beautiful to read about, if frustrating at times because of HOW DAMN SLOW BURN IT IS!! Of course I'm a fan of slow burn romances, but Aeduan/Iseult truly take it to the next goddamn level. Still, it wouldn't be very true to their characters if they just rushed into things, so I really do appreciate that Ms Dennard is taking her time with their development. They will get there in the end <3

Bloodwitch was by far the best instalment in this series so far. I'm not saying it's just because it was Aeduan's titular book, but well...that certainly helped ;)) Aeduan truly came into his own in this book, managing to outshine all the other characters except Iseult, but still not overshadowing them to the point where they seem diminished by comparison. All the other characters were still on top form as well. I'm officially in love with Vivia, and Safi is still awesome and hilarious as always. Merik was never my favourite, but even he was remarkably improved in this instalment. Probably because he has finally gotten over his issues with Vivia. But all in all, these characters finally feel alive for me, they finally feel like living flesh and blood, as if life has been breathed into their lungs. Before now they were just words on a page, but now they feel like people - people who I can love and root for and obsess over.

The world of this series just grows more and more expansive with every book, and now the stakes truly feel cosmic. At the point where this book ends, we are officially in a battle to save the world, and I for one am absolutely WILDING for it. I will be rooting for these characters until the day I die and now I am positively HANKERING for the next book. ...more

Bloodwitch is exactly what I expected even though I'd rather it exceeds my expectations I'm glad I wasn't disappointed.

This book is diverse, action packed, well depicted fight scenes, strong female characters and the adults in this book are just the worst, just on Bloodwitch is exactly what I expected even though I'd rather it exceeds my expectations I'm glad I wasn't disappointed.

The events in Bloodwitch happened two weeks after Windwitch, it was repeated so much it became annoying, all the characters were just saying it. This book is diverse, action packed, well depicted fight scenes, strong female characters and the adults in this book are just the worst, just once I want to see adults portrayed as good people in YA. I love the romance in this book, it was well developed.

The world building is good, I liked it, I noticed some improvement. Same goes for the writing style. This book is written in third person multiple POV of the main characters and they are plenty.

Even though the title of this book is Bloodwitch, Aeduan the Bloodwitch didn't have more page space than the other characters. I think that is due to the fact that his backstory isn't as plenty as unique as I expected. Things haven't changed much for him, he is still hated for his power just like he was as a child. I felt bad for him, no one should be hated for the way they were born. He has finally found resolve, he is who he wants to be and not what people says, for that I'm glad.

You are not like me or anyone else, are you?” She broke the eye contact. “And it’s why the world hates you. Why we will always hate you. Death follows wherever you go, yet by the grace of the Wells, you always outrun your own.”
“I did not ask for this.”
“No one asks for what life gives them.” She sniffed and scrubbed harder at the blade. “What matters is how you use it, and far as I can tell, you have squandered a magic that others would kill for.

Isuelt the Threadwitch is still travelling with Aeduan and Owl. I like her determination and courage. Can't wait to read her book.

Safi is in over her head in Marsok with the empress Vaness, while there she discovered Habim and Mathew's plan and it wasn't what she wanted. I liked that she fought for herself and defended thosed she cared for.

Just when Merik thinks finding his Threadbrother cleaved is the worse that can happen. He finds out that things can get even more worse. The good thing is that now he knows who is cleaving people and their main plan.

Vivia is still battling with the council and her tyrant of a father. She finally had an eye opening that he isn't the hero she made him to be. She is now ready to rule her kingdom.

This book is character driven so not much happened plot wise, the main characters are scattered throughout the witchlands. During their period of separation they found out who is coursing the war and the endgame of the perpetrators. They found out towards the end of the book, so I'm guessing the next book will be about stopping them. ...more

So, I am having a kind of difficult time rating this one! I am a huge fan of the Witchlands series and think Susan Dennard is one of the most brilliant high fantasy authors in terms of world-building and crafting intricate plots and character arcs with hints and easter eggs that you may not notice until re-reading the series. However, I sometimes wish that this series had been sold as adult fantasy with characters aged up a few years and books clocking in at closer to 800 pages than 400 pages. The reason being that the type of writing Susan does is so detailed and carefully plotted that it takes time for complete threads and plot arcs to come together. Bloodwitch really drove this home for me because while a lot happens (more on that below), we are also left with a lot of questions and I just wanted more from it than the length of a YA fantasy novel would allow, especially given the multiple points of view.

In Bloodwitch, there are some really cool things that happen. We learn a lot more about Aeduan and there is solid character development happening for him. We get to see lots of connections to the prequel novella Sightwitch, which was very cool and also confirmed some of my suspicions about things. We also get some really interesting moments that didn't go much of anywhere in this book and, while I know it is setup for the next book, I really wanted more. For instance, Vaness and Vivia meet for the first time and there definitely seemed to be some chemistry there, but it doesn't get explored at all outside of a couple of scenes because of everything else going on. This is the sort of thing that is a little bit frustrating, but I think it has everything to do with the constraints YA places on the length of most books in the genre.

I still love the world and the story and the characters, but I was left wanting a little bit more and knowing I have to wait a long time for the next book! All that to say, this is a REALLY amazing series, but not one to pick up lightly. For me, I know I will re-read Bloodwitch (if not more of the books) before the next book. And I will say, given some of the revelations that happen in Bloodwitch, I really want to do another series re-read with the lens of this new information! Susan is one of very few authors who are able to write such intricately plotted books, knowing the big reveals to come and hiding clues in earlier novels. Patrick Rothfuss does this as well. ...more
