Furyborn was just the book I needed to commence my summer vacation! It was deep, action-packed and so full of love. Seriously, the book started off with action and there was hardly a lull for the rest of the ride!
The character cast of Furyborn made my heart happy. There were so many strong bonds and loving relationships between family and friends which is just what I love to see.
Rielle is the daughter of the Commander of the Royal Guard and she possesses the ability to control all seven of the elements, more than anyone has ever been able to control. She is kind, yet troubled by the horror of her mother’s death. Her fierce and determined side comes out strong during her trials to determine if the is the Sun Queen or the Blood Queen. Her heart is pure, but I definitely wouldn’t mess with her – she serves justice where it is deserved. I adored the relationship between Rielle and her two best friends, Audric and Ludivine. Having grown up together, their bond is nothing but love and support – even when the circumstances encourage otherwise.
Eliana is a bounty hunter who lives centuries later, where Rielle and a world of magic are only a memory or a tale, depending on each person’s perspective. She loves her family fiercely and embarks on a mission with the rebels of the empire to save her mother after her disappearance. Eliana comes across as tough and cold, but it is clear that there is so much more to her character and I’m very eager to continue watching her development throughout the trilogy. Despite the cold exterior, nothing matters more to her than her loved ones. She is extremely devoted to her younger brother, Remy, whose intelligence despite his age brings many things to their adventure.
Both storylines were so intriguing that I couldn’t decide whether I was disappointed or excited each time a chapter ended and the point of view switched. The plot also took a turn that I wasn’t expecting at all! There were a few story developments that I saw coming, but for every one of those there was about 3 more that completely surprised me! I’m so invested in this story and I wish it wasn’t over!
