The Elements of the Crown (The Elements of Kamdaria Book 1) by Kay L. Moody – Review by Shelly Kittell

The Elements of the Crown by Kay L. Moody
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Talise and Aaden are pretty amazing children. Thrown together at the Academy, they are competitors in the Emperor’s contest. War breaks out, all goes to hell and they are becoming friends; attracted to each other. This book was truly fascinating. The detail and how everything just came together. Reading how Talise came from the Storm, one of the many caste groups people are seperated into, made me think of The Hunger Games. That said, being a fan of that series, I wholeheartedly add this one up along with it. So much going on in the undertones with a rich, detailed story, makes for a strong book. Talise kept coming up against twists and turns; she just ran with it and kept going. She was trying very hard to win for her family and that kept her motivated. Great book! Adventure for the youth. I think the adults will enjoy this too. Give it a read, I know you’ll enjoy it.
