The Kyoshi Books I think are very underrated in the avatar universe. these books are much darker than ATLA which I personally enjoyed.
The fandom and the show itself give Kyoshi a reputation of someone who doesn't care about killing and death but the author adds more depth to her character and gives readers a more human side to Kyoshi that the show doesn't give her (due to the lack of screentime she has, as she is a side character)
The reason I'm not giving it 5 stars, despite how much I loved it, I found that when introducing all the new characters, you kind of get a bunch thrown at you at once, and for a while, it was hard to keep track of them all. I don't have this problem with the second book since the second one didn't introduce that many new characters that weren't in the first book. If you're looking for more content in the avatar universe, this is a good place to start.
