This book has everything you’d want in fantasy. Interesting abilities used creatively, the growth and bonds of family, a bigger world to explore.I eagerly await a sequel.

For a book with rave reviews, I had high hopes for a story that was captivating and engrossing but instead was only mildly entertained at best. The magic system was good, characters were well developed, but the last third of the book was so…bland and boring. I’m not sure what others loved about it but..
Unfortunately, I just really did not like the story as the main character continues to put themselves into a small box of existence and it’s insufferable to me. I didn’t finish it with 10 hours left. The magic was interesting, and the Narrator was good. A lot of people still like this book I want..
Nice voice and content.

Incredible story dealing with complex emotions.

The worldbuilding was so overthought that a warrior village with ice swords seems insane when there’s literal weaponized tornadoes, guns, and jet fighter aircraft in the world. My..
it was just good from beginning to end exciting and not to much Stat reads just a great book highly recommend
I think I would have enjoyed the book more if I read it. The narrator kept mispronouncing things. I can’t believe nobody corrected him during recording.

M.L. Wang’s stand alone YA fantasy novel set in the Theonite universe does not disappoint. You don’t have to have read the other Theonite books to read this. I didn’t! Based on Japanese samurai culture, this novel follows Mamoru a 14 year old first born son of the Matsuda family renown for their special blood..
