May the Valiant Prevail After decades of peace within the lands of Caldumn ruled by the Red Kingdom, the southern towns have come under attack. Their libraries burned and ancient texts stolen by an ominous force. An unlikely alliance between two magic kinds is formed when Wren, a nineteen-year-old Mage, finds herself in the middle of a conflict that will take her outside of the peaceful life she’s known. Along her journey, she meets Tyran, whose Necromancer magic is not widely trusted, and learns they share a deeper ancient magic that has long since disappeared. Together with the help of all magic kinds, they must unite the towns to save their lands, and themselves, while the threat of the Red Kingdom looms.

Tbh, I almost DNF'd this a few times, as far in as 70%. I realllly dislike instalove. The biggest thing that stuck out to me was feeling like the characters had no depth. Wren's thoughts were like a stream of consciousness that could probably have been refined?
This book had fast pacing and can easily be read on its own while still setting up unanswered questions for the sequel. The plot was simple, but interesting. I loved all the characters, and the connection between the FMC and MMC was amazing! Honestly, I just really adored the MMC the entire book. He's got cool powers, is very respectful, and is head over heels for the FMC.
