Flamefall
by Rosaria Munda
Rosaria Munda is talented in so many ways, and I don't have the words to praise her enough.
I just love her writing style so freaking much. She tells me so much about the characters and their relationship with the smallest of actions, instead of grand observations. At the same time, when its needed she will write a fiery monologue for the their thoughts. This book is everything that I love in fantasy. Just like the first, there is very heavy emphasis on political and moral turmoil.
Just like the first, Annie and Lee have different views and tension is always brewing. THE TWO OF THEM JUST CAN'T CATCH A BREAK AGH. Both of them make so much sense, but they have such different ideologies. Lee is a hopeful idealist, where Annie is a pragmatic commander. Lee has the privilege of condemning Atreus so harshly, he's not wrong- but Annie doesn't have that privilege. They're in the middle of war, she wants to help as many people as possible. The two of them once again fall into their habitual silences and longing.
But there was a tragedy. A tragic heart breaking tragedy. I cried a lot. Annie and Lee are endgame. They just are.
I haven't even begun to express my love and appreciation for our new character, Griff. Griff is determined and full of fire. I think Griff and Delo's relationship was one of my favorite things. It's also so heartbreaking. I love Delo so much.
LETS NOT FORGET ABOUT MY FAVORITE BOY, POWER. Power is selfish. Power is cruel. Power is pragmatic to a fault. But I love him so much. His relationship with Annie developed so much. She trusts him so much now too. I think Power would do anything for Annie. I would very much like a bromance between Power and Lee, but I might be asking for too much.
The actual plot itself felt so real. I feel like these are real things that happen in revolutions. Never did I think the author was cheesy. This is the first fantasy book I've read that seriously looks at Democracy.
I have so much to say and compliment, but my review is large enough.
Rosaria Munda, that ending was cruel. I do not know how I will wait a year.
