Herlezen 2021 als audioboek (Storytel).
Opnieuw van mijn sokken geblazen. Uiteraard verbaasden de plotwendingen mij niet meer, maar de details en de aanloop ernaartoe zorgden toch dat mijn hart sneller sloeg. Dat einde met die cliffhanger gaf me echt rillingen en ik kan gewoon niet wachten om de afloop te lezen in het laatste deel van deze trilogie.

Recensie 2020
Oh wauw, oh wauw, oh wauw. Dit was fan.tas.tisch! Echt compleet omver geblazen.
Dit boek (en zijn voorganger ook eigenlijk) heeft echt alles:
Een buitengewone wereld met zo'n diepe geschiedenis en overleving. Personages die je echt mee nemen, waar je voor supportert en die zo echt aanvoelen. Een slechterik die niet zomaar zwart-wit is. Schattige dieren. Nog schattigere relaties. En vooral, een fantastisch en super ambitieus plot. Echt de plot, ik ben vol van ontzag over hoe het allemaal samenkwam. En dat einde, ooooooooooh, ja!
Dit is een Young Adult fantasy serie, maar het leunt naar mijn mening al heel dicht aan bij volwassen fantasy. Het is complex, heeft enorm veel diepgang en offert niks op in het voordeel van een snelle voldoening. Absolute aanrader voor fantasy-lezers die graag eens wat dieper het genre in willen duiken.
In this sequel to “Crown of Feathers”, we follow Veronyka, Tristan, Sev, and Val as they try to figure out how to save their people. I won't go too far into the plot since this is a sequel.
I just really love this series. It's so heartwarming and fun, as well as a refreshing take on some YA tropes. One of the things I like most about this book series so far is that there isn't a lot of the miscommunication trope. Whenever someone lies or is misunderstood, the other characters find out quickly and communicate. I hate when a major plot point is how everyone is hiding things from each other. I think that everyone has to face the consequences of their actions throughout, which sometimes doesn't happen in fantasy novels.
The plot towards the end is fast paced and exciting. Some of the beginning is a little slow and repetitive as everyone battles their internal selves and what their best courses of action are. However, I thought that that helped create so much character development, so I didn't mind as much. I saw a lot of negative reviews that mentioned how slow the plot was, and I completely recognize that, but it honestly didn't bother me.
The character development was the real winner of this book. Every character had their own growth arc, whether it be for better or for worse. Throughout revelations and fighting and political maneuverings, the characters each made unique decisions that changed who they were as people. Having the multiple POVs really helped the reader experience this war from all angles.
And don't get me started on the ships. Sev and Kade for life. Tristan is the ultimate cinnamon roll. I love everyone.
I definitely think this series is worth the read for fans of ya fantasy. They are chunky books, but so worth it.
