From the New York Times bestselling author of My Lady Jane comes a smoldering new fantasy trilogy perfect for fans of Victoria Aveyard and Kristin Cashore about a girl condemned for defending dragons and the inner fire that may be her only chance of escape.
Mira has always been a symbol of hope for the Fallen Isles, perfect and beautiful—or at least that's how she's forced to appear. But when she uncovers a dangerous secret, Mira is betrayed by those closest to her and sentenced to the deadliest prison in the Fallen Isles.
Except Mira is over being a pawn. As she fights to survive and guards the secret she'd die to protect, Mira must find her inner fire, sparks of romance, and the scorching truth about her own endangered magic—before her very world collapses.
And that's all before she ignites.
My Review:
Oh, wow, I devoured this book! It's just under 500 pages, and I read it over the course of an evening! The pages just flew right on by, and yeah, I just enjoyed everything that I was reading! I am reading this book well after it was published, since the other 2 books in the series are out, but that means I can just binge read the other two! I can't wait!
I just want to mention, I know that there was some conflict about the cover, that there was representation in book covers, but that the author isn't a person of colour. As someone who is also white, well, I don't really have anything to say, besides the fact that I'm glad that there is representation. I just wanted to put out there that I knew about it.
There's two fantastic things about this book. Well, there's more, but these are the main things. The first is the setting. It's an interesting world with dragons and the fallen Gods, and I can't wait to learn more about it!
The other is Mira, who has been the symbol of this treaty her whole life. And yeah, it was so great to read about her. She has anxiety and that was kinda hard for me, given that I have a mild version, though no panic attacks. So I'd get worried about her and what was going on. I really enjoyed her journey in this book and I can't wait to read more!
Yeah, this book was fantastic, and I can't wait to read the rest of the trilogy!
