This is FanCastic! The fantasy book podcast where we fan cast all of your favorite characters from bestselling fantasy books.

Welcome to our first episode EVER! I am so happy you are here!

Join me this week as my dear friend Kjerstin and I talk about the upcoming screen adaptation & fan cast the New York Times Bestselling fantasy novel: Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros.

---------

Fourth Wing tells the story of 20-year old Violet Sorrengail, the youngest daughter of General Lilith Sorrengail, the commanding general at Basgiath War College in the kingdom of Navarre, where students choose to join one of four military Quadrants: infantry, healer, scribe, or dragon rider. Navarre is guarded by wards which are powered by dragon magic to protect the kingdom from all other magic, including attacks inflicted by gryphon fliers from the neighboring rival kingdom of Poromiel.

Fourth Wing became a viral phenomenon on BookTok, where the hashtags "#FourthWing" and "#RebeccaYarros" have more than a billion views combined.

In October 2023, Deadline announced that Amazon MGM Studios and Michael B. Jordan's production company Outlier Society were developing "Fourth Wing" into a Prime Video series with Yarros being an executive producer for the show.

As of the recording of this podcast, Outlier Society still has not announced casting or a release date for the series.
