Rezension von Skyllen3,5 Stars There is a lot of potential in this plot. The elements, the world building, the politics at court - the author decided this book to be a single one but this has potential to be a big thing, especially because it reminds me of Avatar the last Airbender. In my opinion the writing style was pretty fast-paced so I sometimes felt like parts of the story were missing because the action had barely started when it was over again. Fights lasted one page, barely two and with one blink suddenly two weeks go past. I wished for longer descriptions in those scenes. The plot could have been much more detailed too, we could have driven much deeper into Shi, experienced another depth to the characters and this wonderful world. I find it sad that - although the book was very good in general - it rather seemed to scratch at the surface without ever going into too much detail. On the other hand, a lot happened on only 400 pages. Would I read it again? No. But I would surely recommend it to fantasy-lovers who seek a lighter book without wanting to dive into another long series. This book is perfect if you just finished a trilogy and just want to take a breath for a second before starting with a new series.
