I truly believe that Abiassa's Fire was Kendig's destiny, that she was born to craft this series.įierian caps off an epic, sweeping high fantasy trilogy that leaves the reader both satisfied and wanting more.just one more chapter, just one more moment spent in this incredible world. Kendig has crafted high fantasy of the highest caliber. From powerful description to realistic fantasy dialogue, to memorable imaginary friends and a completely unheard of premise (the ability to wield fire? I mean, c'mon, that alone is mindbendingly fantabulous!). But what she has done with Abiassa's Fire is masterful. What Ronie Kendig accomplished with her military suspense is outstanding. Both with joy because I finally knew how everything ends, and with sorrow, because I had to step out of that world and back into mine. When I finished Lewis' time-tested set of magical journeys through the wardrobe, I felt lost in the real world, having dwelled in Narnia for hundreds of pages.Īs I turned the final page of Fierian, I wept. When I finished Tolkien's masterpiece series, I sobbed. I become completely invested in the outcome of the tale and the well being of the characters. When I do discover such a novel, I get swept up into the world the author has created. But Abiassa's Fire and Fierian give me hope for more. I can count the number of such series' on less than two hands. It takes a story that is so mindbendingly epic to hold my attention, and such treasures are rare and precious finds. I'm going to try my best to do this book and the series justice here, so please bear with me.
