The Hurricane wars 4.75⭐️ 2.75🌶️
High Fantasy
Dual POV
Intricate magic system
Orphan FMC
Dragons
Light/dark magic
War
Matriarchal rulers
The start of this book you are dropped into the middle of some very intricate world building. I felt overwhelmed, but excited. I wish there had been a little more descriptions when it came to the fighting vessels. I had no idea what I was trying to picture and it made things really confusing for a while. Mainly because I’m taking the Star Wars similarities and changing it to maritime air instead of space… but there isn’t a point of comparison. We only know they are wooden ships. It’s a big leap, and one that my brain had a hard time with due to the lack of descriptions…
The banter was good, the characters feel really solid.
I wonder if this will be a duology or a series. With how intricate the world-building was, I’m sure a series… but my world-building fatigue only wants 2 books.
