A review by skylacine
Phoenix and the Frost Palace by Aisling Fowler

3.5

It's solid, but for whatever reason like with the first book I just don't feel fully immersed into this world, and I can't really put my hand on why. There's good stuff in this book, it just doesn't really connect with me personally like I'd hoped. 

There's also a few aspects I don't like though, such as the return of the "ugly equals evil" trope which plagues the fantasy genre as a whole, plus some rather flat newly introduced characters.

I might check out book three, might not.
