WWW Wednesday: February 25th, 2026

WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam at Taking on a World of Words.

The Three Ws are:

What are you currently reading?

What did you recently finish reading?

What do you think you’ll read next?

Here is what I am reading, what I recently finished, and what I plan to read from Thursday to Wednesday.

Let me know if you have read or plan to read any of these books!!

Happy Reading!


What I am currently reading:

Before the events of Auguries of Dawn, diviner Sweyn Savannon refines her strategies for the upcoming tumult. Granted foresight of the legendary Catalyst Stones, she awaits their reappearance in the world while gathering a host of powerful allies.

At last given sight of the location of the Sapphire Stone, Sweyn now knows that the time to put all her plots and schemes into motion has finally come. Determined to see all of Dhanen’Mar become a sanctuary for Destiny, she stands ready to unleash whatever destruction is necessary to see out her dark objectives.

*Author’s Note. This is a prequel to the main series and not a standalone story, and is best read after the 4th volume, Path of Stars.


What I recently finished reading:

As the winter season draws to a close, the royal jester hastens to refine his strategies and prepare the royal city for the fight ahead. Now teeming with both allies and enemies, Aralexia itself sits posed to become a battleground as a truth buried more than twenty-five years is at last ready to be revealed.
To the north, Callan and Tishan return from Veron and find their loyalties tested as the situation between Jennen and Dhanen’Mar takes a menacing turn. Determined to prevent the two realms from seeing open confrontation, the assassin undertakes a dark mission in order to head off a war.


What I plan on reading Thursday through Sunday:

When her granddaughter Serena is abducted by a crew of foreign pirates, Lady Danetria appeals to the warlords for aid. Desired for her diviner skills, all fear that if Serena isn’t rescued before arriving at the distant shores of Swythe Island, she will be lost to them forever.

Deployed on his first official assignment, Kain Rojek isn’t anticipating much trouble—or excitement—to arise from the task of recovering the stolen diviner. But once separated from his fellow warlords, he soon finds himself mired in a web of conspiracy none had foreseen. Forced to navigate his way through fatal enchantments, a rebel uprising, and the darkest corner of Swythe Island politics, Kain will finally come to discover that the only end to his quest may cost him everything.

* Author’s Note
This is a prequel to the main series. While designed to be read between volumes 4 and 5, it can be enjoyed at any point in the series.

When Dhanen’Mar’s home city of Destiny comes under multiple threats, a divination leads Qyn Rojek to finally return to the place of his birth. Arriving at the Spindle, he quickly finds himself confronted with the long-hidden secret of his origins, as well as the deeper truth of his due’foi’beni talents and responsibilities.
Tasked with defending the city from the dark ambitions of his aunt, the invulnerable diviner Sweyn Savannon, Qyn begins a journey meant to at last reveal his destiny.

*Author’s Note
This is not a standalone story and is meant to be read between volumes 4 & 5 of the series.

Following the events of the Spring Banquet, matters in Aralexia become increasingly unstable as alliances splinter and loyalties threaten to unravel. Forced to flee the royal city, Flynn sets out after the Amethyst Stone, while Qyn and Synna prepare to confront the powers of the Sapphire and Emerald in Kohtala.

In the north, the warlords gather to defend against the Jennite army, now posed to invade. Forewarned with the knowledge of two prophecies, one recently discovered in O’Kada and the other spoken by the invulnerable diviner Sweyn Savannon, Taleb desperately seeks a way to halt the battle, even as Baiel forms his strategies to meet the numerous threats. With both the Catalyst Stones and Dhanen’Mar now at risk, enemies begin to converge, and ultimately force a result that will alter the very world itself.

A prequel set 200 years before the main timeline.

For her entire life, Cryslyn Rogim’s very existence has been shrouded in mystery. Why were she and her mother always fleeing into the night? Who was her father? Was something hunting them, and if so, why?
Having now reached her fifteenth birthing-day, Cryslyn is determined to finally learn these answers. Setting out to claim her Secondary Patron, she takes the first step toward her destiny, a fate both unforeseen and unimagined.

  1. You’re certainly diving through these Peyton Reynolds books.
    I’m currently reading Sweetwater and the Witch by Jayne Castle which I’ve had in my tbr for a few years.

    In the last week I only read 2 books. Not sure what happened there! 🥁

    1 Guild Boss by Jayne Castle

    2 First Sign of Danger by Kelley Armstrong

    Not sure what next. Probably the new Anna Hackett which is actually a release

    1. Gill—I am loving the Peyton Reynolds books. They were not what I thought they were going to be and the series is fantastic. I’ve had those weeks where I have read only 2 or 3 books. Usually its one of two reasons: I was super busy with my family or the book was really long (the Reynolds books are at the least 250-300 pages). Have a great reading week!!

  2. I’ve not heard of this author, Jolie, but it sounds like this is a great series. You are binge reading again, and that sends a message about the series.
