“Hope is a fickle, dangerous thing. It steals your focus and aims it toward the possibilities instead of keeping it where it belongs—on the probabilities.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing
Hi Everyone!
Today, I want to start this new month with a review of one of my favorite books recently. I read this book for the first time in January, and I must confess I loved it, and I definitely re-read a month or just a couple of months ago, and I decided to share my review, and I received this book as a gift too . Because the first time I read was on my e-reader app. I read a lot of positive stuff online about this book, but I read a ton of bad reviews. And I need to say this book is just a Fantasy book and has human relationships in there, which is good with all the magic and power dynamics.
Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders.Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans; they incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter—like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant. She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise.Yet with every day that passes, the war outside grows deadlier; the kingdom's protective wards are failing; and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.
Review "No Spoilers"
This book contains friendship, knowledge, and how it affects history, how well we can preserve the real facts or the history is fundamental in the development of the real history and that the magic needs balance and we need to be careful because too much is not always the best. There is a romance between some characters, and I must confess that is funny and relaxed this relationship and there are Dragons and magic and a lot of action scenes.
I guess what makes this book is that two major events are happening at the same time. One is the journey of the main character, and the other one we are going to discover with her. I enjoyed this one so much and cried a lot to the end. The dragons are wonderful, and I feel this book is very incredible.
Dragons? Action? War? Epic subplots? Exquisite lore? Sign me in!!
ReplyDeleteI loved this book too my friend. Violet’s journey was so intense, and the dragons totally stole the show. Can’t wait to dive into the seque. I will be here real quick
