Welcome to our 21-part deep-dive literary analysis of Sarah J. Maas’s bestselling romantasy novel, A Court of Wings and Ruin (ACOWAR). In this episode, we cover chapters 16 through 18, as Feyre rejoins the Inner Circle and prepares for a political war that will test every alliance, secret, and scar.
With 13 years of combined academic literary experience and two rotating literary lenses, best friends Jac and Amy unpack how Sarah J. Maas shifts the story from personal vengeance to global stakes. As tensions rise between courts, sisters, and soldiers, we explore how silence, power, and duty move to the forefront of Feyre’s arc.
New here? We recommend checking out our full literary breakdowns of A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) and A Court of Mist and Fury (ACOMAF) to follow Feyre’s journey from mortal survivor to strategic High Lady.
Chapter Description:
The Inner Circle convenes to update Feyre on the status of Hybern and the need to repair the wall separating Prythian and the human realm before the King can use the Cauldron to tear it down. Despite her need to protect them, Feyre promises to ask her sisters for their help with the repairs. With the impending gathering of the High Lords on everyone’s mind, the Inner Circle returns to the House of Wind for dinner to discuss their next course of action that will ultimately lead them to the Court of Nightmares.
