Fireborne: 1 (Aurelian Cycle)

Product Information

really enjoyed how varying input in dialogue makes readers’ contemplate alongside the character’s views, constantly trying to understand the current ruling leader, atreus, who overthrew the dragonlords, if his vision of a nation is something to vow to defend or if they want more change.

i can tell that the author put a lot of thought into the complex politics because it was one of the main elements that kept me hooked to the story. The mirroring of our characters, going through similar arcs but making different decisions based on privilege and status. Head over to Resources for discussion guides, background information about influences on Fireborne, the writing process, and a map!In addition to the amazing world building, Fireborne is centered around friendship, integrity and loyalty.

Does Lee have serious and lasting trauma from watching his whole family get slaughtered by the rebels who now govern his country?

My friends, she does not, because under no circumstances can you make a motherfucking omelet without killing a few people. Thanks to BookishFirst and the publisher for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review. There is an exquisite balance between resolution and hints of what is to come to really make me eager to see what's next.
