A review by bookwormie
The Reckoning of Roku by Randy Ribay

adventurous mysterious fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I enjoyed this book, even if the beginning was sluggish... This book gives us insight into the struggles and growth of young Roku (as well as other recognizable characters from the TV show like Sozin and Gyatso), which foreshadows what we already know about the future from the TV series. Having insight into a Fire Nation’s perspective of an avatar and the expectations and culture under which a fire avatar would face was interesting to learn and see represented. I’ll be looking forward to future Roku books and watching this avatar mature in their role and learn the other elements. And yay for sky bisons! <3 Yip Yip! Hooray!
