Failed Future

Elise Kova

4.03 AVERAGE


Loved it!

I received an e-ARC from the author in exchange for an honest review. Review can also be found on *Milky Way of Books*

The third book of the series filled me with dread. Elise Kova is a master on creating worlds you want to explore and yet fear page after page for the characters' lives. I can't spoil much and I can only say that Vi and Taavin have a growing relationship and yet when I reached the end and REALIZED WHAT THE TRUTH WAS I cried and gasped. Elise had also said that she had the plot in her mind even from the beginning of Air Awakens so I can understand where the next book will move into.

Still, I dread to see how the series will end.
And there's no feeling of losing interest in the future!

Here we are again with another review. I can't say it enough how great this series is! I liked this book a lot more than Chosen Champion only because there was a lot more learning. Elise really dove into the continent of Meru and the other people that live there. I felt that this book took a second to work on character development while adding tid bits to the plot.

ending was a bust

Full of adventure and exploration, yet something still fell really flat for me. I cant quite put my finger on it at the moment but if I discover it, I’ll be sure to update.

This one was not quite as seamless to read as the second. I appreciated the action sequences and the adventure that went along with it, but nothing really had me hanging on the edge of my seat. Perhaps it’s the writing style that left me confused, but a lack of comprehension of what was really going on made the ending feel like a disaster. Of all the air awakens books, this ending was by far the most disappointing. Obviously the author has a plan with two more books in the series, and I plan to keep reading, but this slow book has me wondering if it’s worth it.

Best of the Vortex Visions series yet!

The scenes with Vi and [redacted] on the stolen ship made my heart grow three sizes today <3

I did see the twist at the end coming but NOT the twist about 10% before the end O.o
