Of Flame and Fury
by Mikayla Bridge
I’m still pretty new to the fantasy genre so the beginning is always a little difficult for me. I found this book to be the complete opposite- I was hooked within the first 2 chapters. It was giving elements of Fourth Wing (with much less spice), so I think that’s why I was so intrigued. Regardless, there is no doubt that Of Flame and Fury will be in my top 10 books of 2025.
We love a good enemies to lovers book, and that’s exactly what this was, while also being so, so much more. Some other tropes I picked up on were forced proximity and found family. I think this book could have also done very well as a dual-POV, especially with the initial animosity and slow change between Kel and Coup’s dynamic.
The characters were all honestly very likable, the banter between all characters was great, and I loved how as the book progressed, the characters began to notice similarities they all shared. The bond Kel shared with her phoenix was also truly beautiful.
The epilogue wasn’t included in the ARC I received, but I must know what happened, so you bet I’ll be buying this book right now to find out!!
This was an incredible debut for this author and I look forward to reading more from her (and hopefully a sequel!!!) in the future :)
