solseit 's review for:
The Providence of Fire
by Brian Staveley
I dedicated some time to making a much longer review on books 1 and 2 of the Chronicle of the Unhewn Throne! Let me know what you think about it!

Oh wow this was a treat.
I am still a bit confused about the end - well not confused I just need to connect all the dots really.
Some quick points: this is the first book in which I am liking the female characters way better than the male characters.
Gwenna, Annick, Pyrre, Nira, Triste are just the perfect character at all times. They all have their own personalities and they work so well in the environment they are put into!
Besides Pyrre (a character I really grew attached despite being a cold-hearted killer deep down), I felt immensely happy to learn about Nira. I would love to read the book about her story, I think that would be just breathtaking.
As for the main characters, Kaden is really starting to show his amazing skills. Valyn gets from the frying pan into the fire and makes it out with a new version of himself. Adare was the character mostly used as a vehicle to introduce others really. She is possibly the weakest character of all.
And I love that the bad guys are always in sight and they change (add or really change I cannot say at this point).
The world building is still extremely strong in the book and we also see a more extended used of the locations on the map - which I always like.
I am looking forward to finish the trilogy. I am definitely enjoying this book - also in its audio version!
