After an explosion destroys his ship, the world believes Prince Merik, Windwitch, is dead. Scarred yet alive, Merik is determined to prove his sister’s treachery.

Re-read 3/3/19: I enjoyed this even more on re-read! 4.5 stars this time around!
Those of you who follow my reviews regularly know that Truthwitch was one of my favorite reads last year and main protagonists Safiya & Merik even made it to my top favorite ships of 2016. To say that I was super excited to read sequel, would be an understatement. I simply could not wait to get my hands on Windwitch. So imagine my disappointment when it did not meet my expectations...
Almost everything that I loved in the first book (Safi/Iseult interactions, Safi/Merik banters and c...more
“The holiest always have the farthest to fall.”
Merik Nihar is dead.
Yes, that's right. Admiral Merik Nihar, the Prince of Nubrevna, the Windwitch with the infamous temper, died in a horrible fashion. Except he did not. Forgotten and broken, physically and emotionally, he crosses the filthy streets of Nubrevna, streets filled with the famished and the poor, he seeks revenge against those who wronged him and lets his wrath guide him, only to discover black tendrils and smoke, and a greater dar...more

I’ll say as little as possible because I seem to be a tad bit confused about my feelings.
Here’s the thing, everything happened in here which under normal circumstances, I’d hate. This would be where I’d have smoke coming out of my ears, along with a raging rant review. Strangely enough, I enjoy it all here.
In a nutshell, as far as plot is concerned, nothing happened. Nada.
The world building was no better than the first book, in fact, I’d go as far as to say it was worse.
None of my quest...more

“Though we are safe with our friends near, we are safest with our enemies nearer.”
Wow, what an emotional ride this book was! I honestly must admit that mostly all my expectation about this book were based on Aeduan/Iseult relationship. And when I found out they will have shared chapters in this part, my joy was limitless. But, oh boy, this book had a couple more surprises in store for me.
First of all, the world-building became wider, ri

Well... that was a disappointment. Truthwitch was one of my favorite books of 2016 and I was already anticipating Windwitch before I even got through the first book. It was one of the first books I read last year and the wait for the second book was unbearable! But sadly, this was not what I was expecting. :( I expected fast-paced, action-filled storylines but instead we got quite the opposite. Everything that I came to love in Truthwitch was no...more
Dying for book 3.
I NEED IT NOW, SOOZ!!! So proud of you!!
WINDWITCH picks up pretty closely where TRUTHWITCH left off, which is to say, it hits the ground running. As you should recall, the first book ended rather explosively, so we're dealing with the (almost) immediate aftermath.
Merik, a broken shadow of himself, is newly arrived to Nubrevna (b/c death wish, as far as I can tell), and Safi and Iseult are for all intents and purposes at opposite ends of their world, with only their flashy-when-in-danger stones connecting them....more
I'm really happy for those that liked or loved the book. There is nothing like loving what you read
For me this sequel just wasn't for me. I liked the first one good enough BUT I just couldn't really get into this one.
I love Iseult and Aeduon! I was hoping to read more about them. I loved little Owl and since I'm not going to read any more of the series, one of my friends will have to tell me...more
One of my goals for 2017 was to DNF books, instead of forcing myself to finish them, but I didn't expect to utilize that goal so soon, especially when I gave Truthwitch five stars.
DNF @ 50%
This is so god-awfully boring, I'm bribing myself with rewards every 5%. Also, I can smell an unnecessary romance/love triangle happening, and I'm not in the mood for a romantic lead to become a villain (I know SJM is this author's best friend, but still).
I thought this series was going t...more
“Why do you hold a razor in one hand?
So men remember that I am sharp as any edge.
And why do you hold broken glass in the other?
So men remember that I am always watching.”
The problem I sometimes face with multiple PoV books is that sometimes it feels like nothing is happening. Wait just let me explain. Windwitch starts out with a bunch of dire things happening and for the first few pages it felt intense, like super intense and it was amaz...more

This novel jumps back in where the first book ended if not a bit farther into the future. All four main characters: Safi, Iseult, Merik, and Aeduan, are separated creating a multi-perspective narration for the readers with one more character added. As the subplot for each character progressed, I dived...more

Summary (from Goodreads):

'The holiest always have the farthest to fall.'
•Windwitch was, to put it simply, better than Truthwitch in some respects, and worse in others, and many of the things I said about Truthwitch are true for this book as well. I still don't like, for instance, the way Dennard writes her action sequences, which I can't follow to save my life, I find them so confusing and distracting, and sometimes even somewhat too long. I still am waiting for the plot to get serious, because I'd like to see, after...more
Immediately after I finished this book I had the same thought as when I finished Truthwitch: Where the hell has this series been hiding from me?
After the events of Truthwitch our four main characters are separated. Safi is captured by the Marstoki empress. Iseult will sto...more
BUT WHY DOES THIS HAVE TO BE ABOUT MERICK. I FUCKING HATED MERICK, HE WAS THE WORST CHARACTER IN THE ENTIRE CAST OF CHARACTERS
DNF 49%, two star rating. I read almost 200 pages of this book, so I'm rating it.
Welp, in this case the mixed reviews were right. As much as I loved Truthwitch (gave it five stars!), this is NOT doing it for me.
A well-written book, but the pacing is so. Dang. Slow. I'm. Not. Even. Kidding. A. Little. Bit. Nope. Not. Even. A. Little. Still. Not. Kidding. Even.
The story is a continuation of book one. Safi is separate from her threadsister, Iseult, and is with Vaness, the ironwitch. Merik, the prin...more

The Story
This book was both beautiful and terrifying as each of our witch’s lives are torn apart and transformed in the sequel to Truthwitch. Dennard expands on the world that she brought us previously and each character’s story unfolds to show more power and depth than we would have expected from an already vibrant story.

Personal Thoughts: Truthwitch by Susan Dennard was one of my favorite books of 2015 (I was lucky enough to read it early thanks to sprinting to the Tor booth on the first day of BEA) so obviously, I was feeling super hyped about reading Windwitch which is the second book in the Witchlands series. It was one of my most anticipated releases for 2017 (I feel like I might say this a lot but I swear it’s true! I just get really excited about new books, OKAY) and...more
The author really, really pushes her characters & shows them no mercy.
You must read Truthwitch before you will understand what is going on in this book.
Windwitch carries the series forward with 3 different stories:
- Merrik, the Windwitch, as he tries to find proof that his sister tried to have him assassinated.
- Safi, the Truthwitch, who is with the Empress of Marstok when their journey is sabotaged.
- Iseult, the Threadwitch, who is trying to get to Safi, while she...more
I feel so conflicted about Windwitch. It was one of my most anticipated sequels but it just didn't live up to my expectations, albeit not being a bad book per se.
The first book had me hooked for several reasons. Those, however, disappeared in the sequel. A fast-paced plot? Negative. Safi and Iseult kicking ass together? Negative. Safi and Merik banter? Negative. Albeit offering an entertaining storyline and some extras like an LGBTQ+ character, Windwitch was clea...more
I really have enjoyed this series so far. The first I loved and this one sets up for the third book really well. Really excited to see where these characters go because there were some pairs to team up that I did not see coming based on book one!
Pre-review:THIS COVER IS PERFECTION.
MERIKKKKKKKKK.
Wow, just... Wow! I didn't expect to love it so much! Truthwitch was good, a great start, even if I had few problems with the first 100/150 pages, but after that the story had flown by. But THIS one! Where do I even start? It was well written, with an amazing story and multiple POVs; all the characters were fantastic and all of them had an incredible character development; the friendship between Safi and Iseult is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen 'Th...more
Despite the first book's many flaws, I was able to overlook the poor plot structure, minimal world building, and characters that made stupid decisions simply because it was entertaining. I don't think people can quite explain why they like those cheesy action movies that have nothing to boast, quality wise - they're just super fun to watch.
That's how I felt about the...more

More quotes…On a continent ruled by three empires, some are born with a “witchery”, a magical skill that sets them apart from others.In the Witchlands, there are almost as many types of magic as there are ways to get in trouble—as two desperate young women know all too well.
Safiya is a Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lie. It’s a powerful magic that many would kill to have on their side, especially amongst the nobility to which Safi was born. So Safi must keep her gift hidden, lest she be used as a pawn in the struggle between empires.
Iseult, a Threadwitch, can see the invisible ties that bind and entangle the lives around her—but she cannot see the bonds that touch her own heart. Her unlikely friendship with Safi has taken her from life as an outcast into one of reckless adventure, where she is a cool, wary balance to Safi’s hotheaded impulsiveness.
Safi and Iseult just want to be free to live their own lives, but war is coming to the Witchlands. With the help of the cunning Prince Merik (a Windwitch and ship’s captain) and the hindrance of a Bloodwitch bent on revenge, the friends must fight emperors, princes, and mercenaries alike, who will stop at nothing to get their hands on a Truthwitch.
