And it's a slow-burn love story.★★★★★ Gripping. Powerful. Filled with Eastern Wisdom. - Goodreads Review★★★★★ I was hooked from the first page... No, the first sentence. And did not want to put it down until the last.It is not only an enchanting fantasy filled with elemental magic and dynamic characters, it is also action-packed and full of suspense. I would almost label it 'Dark Fantasy', but while the cluster have questionable and morally grey pasts, they are driven by Light, and over their journey of transformation, become embodiments of Light itself.... - Goodreads ReviewA PERFECT MATCH IF YOU LOVED; Avatar; The Last Airbender, Sense8, and Leigh Bardugo
