Phoenix Flame by Sara Holland
3.0
Picking up after the Silver Prince leaves Havenfall, it’s no surprise to see Maddie is desperate to pick up the pieces and restore her sanctuary to its former calm. With her uncle Marcus recovering, Maddie is determined to try and ensure their plans for a new world will be able to come to fruition.
Unfortunately, things don’t go smoothly and Maddie soon finds herself in a terrible situation. Forced to reconcile her love of Havenfall with her yearning for a family unit, she is forced to make some very tough decisions.
Although I’d read Havenfall fairly recently, it was useful to start with something of a summary to remind us of the specifics of their situation. We find ourselves following Maddie as she learns new things about many of those closest to her.
I wasn’t wholly surprised to see some characters forming a crucial part of events in this book, but at the back of my mind I couldn’t help think that elements were rather rushed and disappointed that we got little resolution in terms of some of what seemed to be such integral parts of the story.
