The Flame and The Blade (Flame and Blade Series) by Meredith Hart – Review by Erin Wolf

The Flame and The Blade by Meredith Hart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give The Flame and The Blade by Meredith Hart, 5 stars.

I really enjoyed this fantasy/fantasy romance book. Both characters feel like failures, yet they must go on. Lyria picks herself back up from heartbreak, swallows her pride, and goes back to working with her family. This sends her on a mission to escort a noble through treacherous lands. She just wants to prove herself to her family. Little does she know just what she will encounter and just how much her way of thinking will be altered.

Vethe just feels useless so he seeks solace in the bottle — many bottles to be exact. His uncle comes to bring him back home so that they can send him on a mission to recover something said to be hidden. They hire the help of an escort, but little do they realize it will be a woman. He learns that maybe his life isn’t so hopeless after all.

The main part of the story is the journey and all that happens during this time. It is so well written, you feel like you are there. The characters are great too. They are not perfect, and they realize this. That makes them very relatable.

If you are a fan of fantasy with romance involved, I highly reccomend this book. I for one cannot wait to read the next book.
