Daughter of Fire: The Darkness Rising

Destiny and Darkness Series, Book 2

De: Karen Frost

Narrado por: Carly Robins

Not three months ago, I'd been a daughter of the Ice Crown, the lands of snow and ice. Everything I had, everything I was, existed in a tiny world of its own, a single snowflake in a snowstorm. And then, like a candle blown out by careless lips, all of it had been extinguished in an instant.

The kingdom is under threat. A secret, desperate plot to change the course of history has been hatched in dark rooms. Aeryn, a young student war mage from an isolated land of ice, has the powerful gift of fire. To save her world, she must draw around her a small group of fellow mages and allies at Windhall University. At her side is the beautiful healer in training, Lyse, who holds her heart. In front of her is nothing but questions, fears, and impossible decisions.

Conspirators are everywhere, shifting shadows that she can barely see. The longer it takes for Aeryn to find the answers, the more people will die. Her choices might cost her everything. Does she have the strength to do what needs to be done? Can Aeryn protect a kingdom she may not even want to save?

3.7 stars. It's aight.

I liked the story. It was definitely engaging and I cared about the outcome. A lot of it felt a little cheesy and there were several parts where I rolled my eyes. But I very much enjoyed it and I eagerly await the conclusion to this series.

One of my favorite books!

Honestly there isn’t anything that I would personally criticize. The world building is amazing but also east to understand without feeling overwhelming and the build up between the two main girls is better than most wlw books. I have and will continue to recommend it to my friends!
