A review by bookedoc
Cast in Firelight by Dana Swift
3.0
This was a decent read! I know the hidden identity plot point was a main theme of the book but I did get a little impatient about how much of the book it took up. I think that caused the ending to feel a little hurried and not as satisfying as I wanted for the progression of the relationship between the two MC’s. I would consider the book firmly in the younger end of the “young adult” genre as the romantic content/substitute profanity is very juvenile.
That being said: the magic elements of the book are unique (although a little convoluted at times) and it had enough action to be entertaining. We know this book has a romantic element from the synopsis on the cover, but it was nice that there was more substance to other elements of the book as well, such as the political intrigue and the role of Aadra as a spy. Overall, it was worth the read and I am looking forward to the conclusion in the second book!
