Training Gets Dangerous Fast | On Wings of Blood by Briar Boleyn | Chapters 16–30

What starts as training quickly turns into something much more intense.
In this episode of Books Between Friends, we continue our readalong of On Wings of Blood by Briar Boelyn, diving into Chapters 16–30—where the stakes rise, the pressure builds, and it becomes clear that not everything is as controlled as it seems.
This section pushes the characters further, testing limits in ways that feel unpredictable… and maybe even a little dangerous.
As always, we break it down with our 3-2-1 format:
- 3 Things We Loved (including moments that escalated fast)
- 2 Character Moments That Stood Out
- 1 Prediction about where all of this might be heading
Between shifting dynamics, growing tension, and training that feels like it’s walking a fine line, this part of the story has us fully locked in—and asking a lot more questions.
