A review by saranies
The Burning Sky by Sherry Thomas

4.0

A fun fantasy story. Pretty classic: colonized country has child born into it that is the prophesied one, but there are a few twists. The main character is mad about getting manipulated

The ending felt a little like it wrapped up too easily, as though the author was nearing the end of her page count and needed things to be over. I do have questions about the Bane and the Inquisitor (although some things seem obvious, like
SpoilerTitus is the Bane's son and Iolanthe is somehow related to the royal family
). Looking forward to finishing out the trilogy and spending more time in the worlds.

I might like this book more than I otherwise would because a throwaway character has the same name as my cat: Alcyone.
