WitchFall

A particularly dark tale. Not for the faint of heart. He was the all-powerful Magistrate Mathis. The man that accused the witches and then found them guilty in the dungeons of WitchFall Fortress. I had feared ever being one of them, but not enough to be dissuaded from figuring out why he didn't seem to be what he was. So I followed him into the woods one day and discovered the one secret he was willing to wreak havoc to keep. The secret he'd make me pay for ever knowing. And if he couldn't have me on my terms, well he was certainly powerful enough to find a way, wasn't he? The most horrible kind of way... Barely understanding what was happening, I soon found myself in the worst place I could possibly be. Under his complete control...

Witch of the Throne

Witch of the Throne

Photo by Anastasiya Doborvolskaya via Pinterest A hundred years had passed since the war against witches reached its conclusion, leading the Kingdom of Londeve to a century-long peace. Everything's all well either for the young village baker boy, Tristan who lives a simple life with his two younger siblings not so far away from the country's capital. As ordinary as he might seem, it is not to be expected that he's actually acquainted with the only living royalty residing in his homeland, Crown Princess Anne of Londevè. Even so, their decade-long friendship never brought any significant change in each others' lives throughout the years, and for the humble young man, it is something to be relieved for. However, fate seem to have its own mischievous way of twisting the humble orphan's life. It was a remarkable encounter that turned his seemingly normal life into a dangerous rollercoaster ride as he got involved with the epitome of misery herself — the manipulative and mysterious lady, Serina Lourdemayne, who has been ironically keeping the peace at the Kingdom as a substitute Queen despite being a witch herself. Will this accidental and unwanted engagement ever reward him? Will they be able to work progressively despite their obvious and huge differences with their loved ones, responsibilities and aspirations in line? Dive into the world of magic and witness the journey of Tristan and Serina together with the noble Paladins as they protect the Kingdom from the coming calamities and from the new enemies that could possibly be more powerful and sinister than the wicked witches the human race had faced before.

What happens at the ending of Wandfasted?

1 Answers2026-03-08 12:21:12
Reading 'Wandfasted' by Laurie Forest was such a rollercoaster of emotions—it’s a prequel to 'The Black Witch' that dives into the early days of the resistance against the oppressive Gardnerian regime. The ending is intense and bittersweet, tying into the larger saga while standing strong on its own. Without spoiling too much, the story culminates in a heart-wrenching moment where the protagonist, Tessla Harrow, and her love interest, Vale Gardner, are forced into a painful separation. Their bond, the 'wandfasting' (a magical marriage), becomes a symbol of both hope and sacrifice as they choose to fight for their beliefs despite the personal cost.

What really struck me was how Tessla’s defiance grows throughout the story, and by the end, she fully embraces her role in the resistance. The final scenes hint at the larger conflict to come in 'The Black Witch,' with Tessla’s actions setting the stage for future rebellions. Vale’s fate is left uncertain, which adds a layer of tension—you’re left wondering if their love will survive the war. The writing is so vivid that I could feel Tessla’s determination and grief in equal measure. It’s one of those endings that lingers in your mind, making you immediately want to pick up the next book to see how everything unfolds.

I picked up 'Wandfasted' on a whim after finishing 'The Black Witch' series, and it turned out to be such a delightful surprise! This prequel novella dives into the origins of the Black Witch’s world, focusing on the love story between Elloren’s grandparents, Vale and Sage. If you’re into rich world-building and slow-burn romances with a magical twist, this one’s a gem. The chemistry between the two leads is electric, and the way Laurie Forest weaves in political tension and societal expectations adds so much depth to what could’ve been a simple love story. It’s short but packs a punch, especially if you’re already invested in the series.

That said, if you haven’t read 'The Black Witch' yet, I’d recommend starting there first. 'Wandfasted' works as a standalone, but the emotional weight hits harder when you understand the broader context of the conflict between the Gardnerians and the Keltic people. The writing style is lush and immersive, though some might find the pacing a bit uneven—it’s more character-driven than plot-heavy. Personally, I adored the glimpses into the magical system and the way it sets up the larger series. It’s like finding a hidden treasure chest of lore. If you’re on the fence, I’d say give it a go; it’s a quick read that might just hook you into the rest of the books.

Who is the main character in Wandfasted?

The main character in 'Wandfasted' is Laurana, a young woman whose life takes a dramatic turn when she discovers her latent magical abilities. Set in a world where magic is both a gift and a curse, her journey from an ordinary existence to becoming a pivotal figure in a brewing conflict is what makes the story so gripping. Laurana's resilience and curiosity drive the narrative forward, and her personal struggles with identity, power, and loyalty add layers to her character that feel incredibly relatable. I especially love how her flaws make her more human—she’s not just a hero, but someone who stumbles, learns, and grows.

What really stands out about Laurana is her emotional depth. The way she grapples with the expectations placed upon her, both by society and her own family, creates a tension that keeps you hooked. Her relationships, particularly with other key characters like her mentor and the enigmatic figures she encounters, are nuanced and evolve organically. The book does a fantastic job of showing how her choices ripple outward, affecting not just her fate but the world around her. It’s one of those stories where the protagonist’s growth feels earned, and by the end, you’re rooting for her not because she’s perfect, but because she’s trying so damn hard. If you’re into strong, complex female leads, Laurana’s arc is definitely worth diving into.

What books are similar to Wandfasted?

If you loved 'Wandfasted' by Laurie Forest, I totally get why you'd crave more of that magical, rebellious vibe! It's got that perfect mix of forbidden romance, political intrigue, and a lush fantasy world. You might adore 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' by Sarah J. Maas—it's got that slow-burn romance with high stakes and a heroine who grows into her power. The world-building is immersive, and the tension between personal desires and societal expectations feels similar.

Another fantastic pick is 'The Black Witch' by Laurie Forest herself—it's actually the first book in the same series as 'Wandfasted,' but it expands the universe with even more depth. The themes of prejudice, resistance, and self-discovery are handled with such raw emotion. For something slightly darker but equally gripping, 'Serpent & Dove' by Shelby Mahurin blends witches and forbidden love in a way that’ll make your heart race. The banter is top-tier, and the magic system feels fresh yet familiar.

Why does the protagonist in Wandfasted make that choice?

2 Answers2026-03-08 14:43:50
The protagonist in 'Wandfasted' faces a crossroads where loyalty to tradition clashes with personal desire, and her choice reflects a deeper commentary on societal expectations versus individual freedom. From the outset, she's bound by the rigid customs of her world, where wandfasting isn't just a ritual but a symbol of obligation. Yet, her decision to defy it isn't impulsive—it's a slow burn of rebellion fueled by moments of quiet defiance earlier in the story. What really struck me was how her relationships with secondary characters, like her mentor's cryptic advice or her rival's unexpected solidarity, subtly shape her resolve. It's not just about love or duty; it's about reclaiming agency in a system designed to strip her of it.

Her final choice also mirrors themes in other works by the same author, where protagonists often dismantle oppressive systems from within. The way she weaponizes her 'weakness'—her emotional ties—into strength reminded me of 'The Black Witch' trilogy, where vulnerability becomes a catalyst for change. The beauty of her decision lies in its imperfections, too. She doesn't have a grand plan, just a gut feeling that the status quo is wrong. That relatability, the messy humanity of her choice, is what lingers long after the last page.
