The Elements of the Crown (The Elements of Kamdaria Book 1) by Kay L. Moody – Review by Jenni Bishop
The Elements of the Crown by Kay L. Moody
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Elements of the Crown (The Elements of Kamdaria Book 1) by Kay L. Moody is YA fantasy book. There are actually four stories in this one book – The Ice Crown, The Wind Crown, The Dust Crown and The Fire Crown. Bargain. Hidden secrets, hidden agendas, lots of danger and lots of twists are just some of what you can expect in this series. The world building is done well but. You love some and love to hate some, some you wanted to hug and some you wanted to slap. There is betrayal and deception, lies and secrets and magic and mayhem. The plot is well written and the suspense and intrigue keep you turning pages but it is over quickly as they are very short novellas. Kay has given us an exciting new world and takes us on a journey.
Talise finds herself in a world in which you have to fight for what you want. It is a little emotional and will make your heartache at times but I loved Talise’s vulnerability but also her strength and fiery determination. Talise is only seven years old when she is to perform before strangers. Her mother wants her to have a good life and the only way to do that is to prove her worth at the Academy. Coming from the Storm, a place where no one wants to live, a place where you waste away and die in the wasteland where nothing grows.
