The Heart Forger

Every time the stakes get higher, I jump further on board. Tea is a brilliantly flawed heroine, and I loved watching her come into her own, both as an asha and a woman. Behind all its dragons and lightning magic, this novel is about seeing what is different about someone - about discovering their flaws, their quirks, and the parts of themself they try to hide - and choosing to love them anyway. As before, Chupeco's writing is beautiful, and I can't wait to read the final installment in this series.
