The Raven Tower
by Emma Miles
Thank you, Booktasters and the author for the free copy in exchange for an honest review
The Raven Tower is the first book in the Firewalker series by Emma Miles. It is an epic magical fantasy saga that revolves around mainly 3 kingdoms, The Fulmers, The Chems, and the People of Elden. When the Chems decide to attack and conquer everyone, the rest of them should keep aside their differences and fight against a common deadly enemy.
Kesta, a Firewalker, daughter to the Icante and Silene of the Fulmers is put in a dilemma when she is asked to marry the Darkman in return for the protection of the Fulmers. She is supposed to live in Elden where a woman’s opinion is strongly disregarded whereas Kesta is from a place where the women rule. How can Kesta survive and fight against the enemies alongside the Darkman, Who she hates?
Jorrun A.K.A. The Darkman is known as the Fierce and cold-blooded sorcerer of King Bractius. When he is asked to marry Kesta for political reasons, He agrees because no one disagrees with the King. He has a secret a dark one which he does not intend to share with anyone not even with Kesta. He stays up in his Raven Tower where no one is allowed and does god knows what.
The Chems use Blood magic, They call themselves the Necromancers. Dryn Dunham is their leader and he intends to capture all of the Fulmer women and breed himself the strongest magical bloodlines. Chem is a city, where women are the slaves, A woman without a master, is treated as public property and any man has the right to her.
Kesta and Jorrun must unite to bring down the powerful Necromancers while finding each other. This is a story of Power, Magic, and Love.
I loved every word of this! Although I felt like the pace was slow but it kept me hooked till the end. I did not expect the story to be so well written but I am glad that I was wrong. Anyone who loves magic and a fantasy world needs to read this book.
The reason I loved this book is because of the strong female characters. Kesta, Dia, and many more badass characters full of empathy and love for others. Give it a read and I assure you that you will not regret it.
