While I enjoyed the magic system, the dragons, and the lore in Iron Flame, I definitely found the cyclic arguing between the main characters to be repetitive. Also, Xaden’s story arc is giving Anakin vibes, and we don’t stan a self-righteous anti-hero who sacrifices sanity for… whatever he has for Violet.
Graphic: Animal death, Confinement, Sexual content, Torture, Death of parent, and Murder
Moderate: Panic attacks/disorders, Toxic relationship, War, and Injury/Injury detail
Minor: Chronic illness and Suicide attempt
