Flight of the Fallen is one of my most anticipated sequels and it 100% lived up to the hype! I adored being back in the world of the Magebike Courier and I cried tears at the end! Keep reading this book review of Flight of the Fallen for my full thoughts.
Summary
Jin-Lu should be happy. Princess Yi-Nereen of Kerina Rut and Prince Kadrin of Kerina Sol have reunited after twelve long years, having survived a near-apocalypse. They are safe and in love—thanks to Jin—and they want her to join them for their upcoming nuptials in Kerina Sol.
But their happy ending came at the cost of Jin’s.
Jin lost everything in the fallout of saving the world. Now she’s Talentless, scrabbling to eke out a living in the lowest echelons of society. All she wants is to be left alone with her shameful secret, but the storms that sweep the wastes have other plans.
When refugees from a fallen city flood into Kerina Sol, the delicate balance between Talented and Talentless shatters. With tensions rising and civil war looming, Yi-Nereen, Kadrin, and Jin must join forces again to save their own people and the refugees.
Now their salvation lies beyond the wastes, in the mythical home of the the First City.
Review
(Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
In Flight of the Fallen the conflict between the talented and the talentless comes to a head. It’s a story about power, oppression, and the lies we are told. When we always fear power we don’t understand, how can we begin to unravel our past? The exploitation and manipulation paired with the superiority complex is a firecracker waiting to ignite. And the kind of change they need isn’t gentle, it’s a force of nature and one that will bring down lightning. Flight of the Fallen examines how each of us can play our role as a spark, a tinder, a catalyst.
And it leaves us wondering what kind of relationship, if any, can be formed in the ashes. With this orbiting omniscient narrator Flight of the Fallen illustrates all the secrets swirling around them. How for one person a gift becomes a weapon. In many ways it’s also a story about children and parents, about family, and what we would do and wouldn’t do for them. All of these units of relationships, families, communities, what demands are made of us. There’s almost non-stop action as we are thrown into a conflict decades in the making. Into an ecosystem that has been unbalanced for too long.
Flight of the Fallen was an emotional roller coaster and I cried at the end. This sequel was everything I wanted and more! Find Flight of the Fallen on Goodreads, Storygraph, Amazon, Bookshop. org, Blackwells, & Libro. fm.
