Rate this book
The Woodlands Wisteria left behind swiftly became the Deadlands.

The nation of Numaal rotted with corruption from the inside out, only now humans no longer accept the blindfold of ignorance and lies. Lies that have pervaded across the Thalren Mountains where the Weaver of Fates continues to intertwine Wisteria, Zander and Fennick's threads. As well as the threads of ancient mythical creatures, Eternals and rebels leaders...

Each woven's resolve is tested, their character tried, their weaknesses made vulnerable for sacrifices that must be made. The runegate to the beyond threatens to shatter, leaving the Dreamer Realm, and whole of Kinlyra, susceptible to the all consuming plague. Our wovens' future is daunting and indeterminable, but as the War of Worlds commences, light is shed on their pasts and what is revealed is profound enough to rattle even the White Tower.

Fennick fans unite because we are finally given our satisfaction in book number 2! And as the plot/world spins wider, the grounding character moments kept me engaged and connected. Story ultimately felt a bit rushed with spelling and grammar errors, as well as the skipping of major plot elements just to be 'told' to us in dialogue later - that I would have wished to see visually place out on the page. Fingers crossed book 3 finds a balance between the two: prioritizing both the bombastic plot elements and quiet interpersonal relationship moments.

This series is for the readers who like spicy spice with their epic high stakes fantasy worlds! You are warned. 🔥

🖤 Wisteria (Crafter), Zander (Incubus) and Fennick (Elemental) are back! 🖤

Wow, book two is as high stakes as book one. Their journey takes you to the Dreamer Realm where you will meet a lot of new characters, griffins, and prepare for a massive war. The intense world building continues when we learn what the last God and Goddess have been up to. The way the author describes the scenes and characters, I felt a part of the story. And there is no shortage of 🔥 why-choose open door scenes. Oh, and chapter 41 will have you screaming, “no, no, no!!” I cried but the author made amends and healed my soul only to break it again with the cliffhanger. I need book three ASAP!!

I am now a why-choose romance girlie. Honestly, B.B. Aspen made it easy to love this trope because it was so natural and blended with a half dozen of my favorite romantasy must haves.
These three. (Nikki! IKYYK) Their intricate relationship, their banter, their honesty, their character development, their wild ways of expressing themselves had me head over heels for all of them among that fantastic plotline. No spoilers here, but this series is perfect for those who love magic, epic worldbuilding, high-stakes war and obviously a romantic overlay that literally felt me floating between pages and turning them faster as the chapters went on. A perfect sequel to The Rage... I am shook. In the best way possible.

I have SO MUCH to say, but no amount of words will never be enough to express my obsession with this series. It's poetically beautiful, heart-wrecking, jaw-dropping, spirit-lifting and profoundly magically all in one.

If I say more, I fear I will give away the best of the plot twists and that ending... girl... If you read romantasy, this is for you!

Tropes: Touch her and bye-bye, Why-choose, Fate vs. Free Will, Mythical Creatures, Rebel Leaders, Gods and Goddesses Pantheon, MFM, Fangs and Fire, Epic Character Vulnerability and Growth, Found Family

TW: Knife play, Un-aliving, MFM, War of the World, Alcohol Abuse, Mentions of child slavery and abuse

holy shiiiiiii! The drama the emotions the tears! I felt everything. This second book was just absolutely beautiful! I felt everything in the deepest parts of my soul. I would shatter be built up and shatter again. The love that you feel in this book is leaving me breathless! The 3 main characters. (Let me stand up and give a round of applause) absolutely remarkable! I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT BOOK! Give me more fire fox, incubus and a girl that is stronger than anything you can imagine. That cliffhanger! Gasps! I highly recommend reading this series. 😭- Kerin

“Her love for Kinlyra earned her the respect of Numaalians, Dreamers, and IIanthians “. @b.b.aspen_author what a read! My first question… when is book 3 being released? Your cliffhanger literally left me with my jaw dropped. I have to commend this author on her spice level in this book. The love between Wisteria, Zander, and Fennick was felt to my core. The slow burn between Wisteria and Fennick was top notch. The battle…. Epic! The Weaver of Fates is a tricky lady, but the web she has put together had me holding my breath. I am patiently looking forward to book 3 of The Realm Weaver Trilogy. Book overview
Threads will be frayed.
Hearts will be broken.
Lies will be exposed.

My favorite line was the, if the shadow tentacles that rolled off him were a tangible thing, I'd ask him to fuck me with them.

Nah Bisssshhh. I'm mad because I know damn well you didn't just leave me dangling off that cliff like that. Dirty. Lmfaoo because what do you mean that was the end. No somebody go get BB now. Where's the next book? I need it right now.
Side note Nikki is still my favorite. I know I'm supposed to love Zander but Nikki. He's just doing all things. I think it's the stalking. It just really does it for me.
I actually loved this book so much. The wait for the final book is going to kill me. Probably as much as not having my own cuddly nine tailed fox with three hearts well can we actually say that.

The first book is filled with Ivy's rage, revenge and survival while still showing her compassion for her people and her land. This one felt more like an embrace for her well being if that makes sense. She now has stuck with her name Wisteria and although the rage, revenge and survival is still there it feels as if she is actually living. She's finding footing in this new world she lives in while dealing with the loss of her others. She's understanding her wovens, magic, and the lies laid out before her. I love Zander and Fennick, their families and life they have set up while 100% including Wisteria in it. There are more conversations I am living for. I enjoyed Zander taking the reigns and seeing his fun and serious sides. He feels more hot headed whereas Fennick is kind of the voice of reason for both Wisteria and Zander, at times, which cracks me up. This one had so much more history on the lands, the magic, the people, wars and the politics. Family wise I loooooove Nikki's family, I want to scoop them all up and squeeze them. Out of all of Zanders brothers, Percy is my favorite, I love a broken spirit that picks themselves up. I'm so happy how the dynamics woven settled because I FREAKING knew it! When there were about 100 pages left everything seemed too good to be true and I was happy about some of the things but that ending had me gutted. I need the next book ASAP!

I loved this book so much that I read it twice. Missing deadlines for other books because I couldn’t appreciate it fully the first time due to a migraine.

I cannot gush enough about these characters. All of them, even the ones you absolutely want to hate, I ended up falling in love with.

As B.B. Aspen knows already I am madly in love with Fen the delicious Elemental Fox…. And we get so much more of him in this book… Hello Daddy Fen *chefs kiss*

And when I tell you this author has a way of spinning words that will make your soul just melt and come alive I am not joking. Her imagery is par none that is have experienced and I ready primarily Fantasy and this world is so complex but she paints it as beautifully as a watercolor. You can follow every brush line and see the whole beautiful story as easily as you are reading the words.

Pacing is perfect. Length is wonderful. You get enough of every element that you don’t feel like you are missing anything. The tension and spicy is just sublime. This is book two and I am already salivating for another!

Life long fan. Go and pick these books up. You will fall in love with it.

AMAZING! I have never loved a romantasy trio more then Wisteria, Zander and Nikki! That knife scene with the mirrors! (Gasp!) Chef's kiss! Zander's character arch? Despite being half-incubus I find him so relatable!
And...the... LIES... I don't want to give spoilers because I know this trilogy is going to take off massively once booktok/bookstagram gets their hand on its magic... my jaw hit the floor!
The plots of book one and two become so interconnected and *woven* together that had me on my toes the whole time devouring this book!
The SPICE level is upped to 4 chili peppers... each scene more delicious than the next! Add a fire shifting elemental nine tail fox to the bed with a massive winged incubus and our ever amazing quick witted Wisteria... I"LL be keeping this book on the night stand.
The begining had me gushing and blushing.
The middle had my jaw dropped and mind reeling.
The ending broke me in more ways than I can count.
BB Aspen -->Book three better mend my soul.

These characters have burrowed their way into my heart! I absolutely loved Wisteria’s personal growth through her trauma and coming to terms with her relationship with Zander and Nikki. Their woven throuple is everything 😭🥹 Hold on tight because they will take you on an emotional rollercoaster!

BB Aspen did a beautiful job not only with the main characters and their relationship, but also with the side characters who feel like family as well. Those strong side characters always cement a story into my heart even more! The day to day issues they faced kept me engaged as well as the overarching war and conflict with the wraiths and faceless prince.

The ending absolutely broke my heart!!! I can’t wait to see how it will all conclude in book three! ❤️😍

I really struggled with the world building of the first book and honestly wasn't sure if I was going to finish the trilogy when the family info in the beginning became a little tedious to me. Then being that it was in a new place there was new connections that had to be built while others were deepening. But with all that I will say once the action picked up....wow...just wow.

At first I didn't like any of Zander's family. Percy grew on me and I understand him now. Fen's family was awesome from the start. I absolutely adore his father, Honri.

I didn't see the ending coming entirely. Some of the events were WTF moments but in the end my man Fen did what I had a feeling he would do about halfway through the book.

Absolutely going to finish the trilogy.

This book was ✨incredible✨

I’ve been known to love the second books in trilogies most, but that remains to be seen as the third book has not been released yet!

Firstly… The PLOT TWISTS💀
I’m not giving anything away, but good lord they just kept coming! And most of the came completely out of nowhere!
Also, I absolutely adored getting to explore more of the magic system and the world in this book! The slow burn was definitely slow burning, just like book 1, but not to an annoying extent.

I absolutely can’t wait for the next book in the trilogy! I can’t wait to see where this story goes and how it finishes off in the final book of the trilogy!🥰

No way! The book ending had me on the edge of my seat. B.B. Aspen your second book was a work of art, not only did we get to experience all the feeling but it threw me into shock to see who the guy in the raven mask was.

Rating 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
Smut- 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶...

Im excited to see what happens next on this journey with Wisteria, Zander, and my baby Fennick 😉
Not only did Wisteria get the crap end of the deal. But she showed up and showed out like a bad b**** she is.

The corruption of Numaal, the emergence of the plague, and the return of mythical Eternals make for a truly epic canvas, but what makes this shine is its emotional depth. Every sacrifice hurt. Every secret revealed made me pause. Aspen’s prose is elegant without being overly ornate, and the slow reveal of backstory was handled perfectly. A must-read for serious fantasy lovers.

Book 2!!!! I went from needing a break from fantasy to day dreaming about these characters every single minute of every single day.

I absolutely adore the way this story is written. Wisteria is written with such mastery. She is stunning, vicious, chaotic and loves without limits. For the people she cares about she will tear the world in half. I love watching her be unhinged and violent, Wisteria covered in blood and striking fear into the hearts of her enemies might be my favorite imagery ever. An absolute credit to B for writing an impeccable female main character who experiences the full scope of human emotion and isn't watered down to accommodate those who want women to be smaller. The depth of emotions , the turmoil, the trauma and pain you see Wisteria go through. Then watching her growth and her power change and the consequences of that is devastating.

Book two continues on with the plot of our first book but the stakes are higher, secrets are being uncovered, and the relationship between Nikki, Wisteria and Zander is starting to be explored on a deeper level. I adore a "why choose" and watching Nikki come into his own is really something spectacular. I really admire the contrasting personalities and traits of our MC's, the ebb and flow of their emotions and the pieces they bring to the table. The poetry that can be found in their dynamic is visually stunning, the fire, the earth, the darkness, the light, the Trinity and the family of it all. It's art.

However I do have a bone to pick with B. Something about the book that I absolutely hate........... The fact that I didn't have book three there to dive into immediately. 😉 How dare authors need time to actually write such incredible books. The cliff hanger was epic but I now have to practice patience and wait for the next one to be released!
