cerebrospinal_druid 's review for:
The Rise of Kyoshi
by F.C. Yee
This was everything I needed!
"The Rise of Kyoshi" is a YA read, yeah, but proved to be tremendously rich and stirring in its storytelling - so thank you F.C. Yee for your work, and thank you Michael Dante DiMartino for your stamp of approval!!
Honestly, the writing and plot development were SO ENGAGING. Parts were predictable, but other parts WERE CERTAINLY NOT! It leaned into the AtlA and LoK world that fans cherish, while it also expanded on its history and lore. I feel like Kyoshi's biopic could have run the risk of trailing down story arcs similar to those of Aang and Korra, but it’s completely Kyoshi’s own (no matter how painful). Both the Flying Opera Company crew and Kyoshi and Rangi's relationship now have a treasured place in my heart. Plus, the book incorporated much more gore and violence and death - which was a harrowing and mature (and more fun imo) change of pace.
I would recommend to any fan of the series and comics! And for those who haven't seen, I can assure you it was a riveting read with twists and plots that had me on the edge of my seat through the very end.
