Maybe I have another Affinity?) but alas! magic is not my thing, so I had to live vicariously through Vhalla and it felt good. I even tried to manipulate the air around me (it was a long shot I know but I had to try. Her writing is flawless, she manages to capture your attention since the first chapter and make you invested in the story and the characters. Even though she introduced us into a brave new world with its own geography, history, religion and magic system, everything was woven with precision by hands that knew exactly what they were doing. They are far greater than the sum of their parts together, but are equally as dangerous to each other's existence.”Įlise Kova is hands down an extremely talented author. But too much air will snuff it completely, just as too many flames will consume all the air. Air fuels fire, stokes it, and makes it burn brighter and hotter than it ever could alone. Needless to say, Vhalla gradually comes around, with a little push (pun intended) from the crown prince who is also known as the Fire Lord (and everyone thinks of him as an arrogant bastard), and she discovers the potential but also the danger she faces as the last Windwalker. While you or me would monkey dance at this prospect, Vhalla isn't as excited, since she and everyone in the South hates sorcerers and magic in general. Vhalla is a library apprentice whose world evolves around books and only books (stop staring at me mom), until one day she accidentally saves the crown prince's life and the Minister of Sorcery informs her that she is a sorcerer as well. And a seriously embarassing dancing session. This book was utter perfection!! Mix elemental magic with war and schemings and court rivalries and romance and a prince to die for and BOOM! Air Awakens happens. A man who is tall and witty and knows more about the world than you would ever dare dream.” I want the bravery to not only read, but to do.
“I want a place you hardly dare to even whisper.
