A Legacy of Storms and Starlight by Victoria J. Price
medium-paced
3.75
A Legacy of Storms and Starlight, by Victoria J. Price, is a medium-paced fantasy, with short chapters.
You get magic, fae and other creatures, in a world where humans despise the Faes and eradicated them.
I really enjoyed the story, right from the start, as it sucked you in immediately with the Prince's killing, the -almost- hanging, and the mysterious Fae man.
However, I did take some points away because although I was really interested in the plot, it got a bit dull afterwards and I started losing interest. BUT, it got better by 70% of the book and I was invested again. Maybe if the book was shorter, we wouldn't have that "boring" section in the middle? Some parts of the plots felt a little cliché too, but nothing too prevailing.
Zylah has a small owl companion and I loved him 🥹🦉. She meets other Faes and get close to them. You get romance, and to my surprise, a touch of spice 🌶️. I really wasn't expecting it, so when it came, let's just say I was pleasantly surprised!
I'm not a fantasy avid reader, but from what I've read so far, this book has its own stamp on the Fae world and Zylah's botanical touch is a great addition.
I was really surprised with the ending and I'd be interested to see what happens in book 2! But I also feel like it could be a stand alone as well, if you're not into series.
