Instead, we got a nice tossing you into the fray, which is slowly becoming my favorite entry into a story. On that front I really did like this book and its premise, it didn’t try to overload me with setting information. All of this happens in the first few chapters before we even get to the main synopsis of the book, which is a little surprising. From there they are taken, though her mother is killed in the process, and Ruby locked in a prison. Someone sees her and reports her and her mother to the local forces in the area. Unfortunately, even being careful doesn’t mean you won’t get caught. She’s been told since she was young not to show her powers, and she’s been careful to obey that one rule her mother set for her. We are first introduced to Ruby as she’s just beginning to tap into her powers and learn about them secretly. Considering I often run into books/series that have slow starts in Fantasy/Science Fiction I was happy to have this one begin with a bang. This was a really good start to the book with a some good action in the first chapter. Who can say no to that? Frostblood (Book 1) : 3 out of 5 Stars To save her own life and get the chance to start over she has to take down the cruel Frostblood king. When her ability is reported to the local forces, everything she’s known and cared about is ripped away, her life reduced to one behind bars until she is given an offer.
Ruby is a fireblood, born with the ability to control fire and heat, but she was born in a country of frostbloods. This one doesn’t stray too far from the YA Fantasy stories we’ve all been reading over the years it has magic, warring factions, and a female protagonist with a sad past. This one turned out not to be one of my favorites, so I’ll just say that this is my opinion, not fact. So, like all the books/series reviews that came before, what did I think of this one? I guess before going into the review, this will have some spoilers, though I’ll try to be more of an overall thoughts on the books. I don’t think I had seen it pop up on Booktube or Bookstagram, but when it came time to buy some books for Quarantine this one oddly came up in my mind almost immediately. This series had been on my radar for a while, floating on goodreads and amazon whenever I was book shopping.
