In Rise of the Flame, K.N. Lee has written a masterful tale about Lilae and Liam, two people of the chosen class whose destiny is to fight in the Great War between races. Lilae has spent her life on the road, avoiding those who wish to cause her great pain or death for being the Flame. While wishing to be normal, Lilae is well aware of what makes her different from the others. Her hope for a normal life is gone when the Shadow Elf Dragnor and the Mithrani army following him attack the village. Can Lilae do what needs to be done to fulfill her destiny or will she choose to ignore it in hopes of a normal life? Liam is the Prince of Oren who has spent years training for his destiny. Now that he has set out on his journey to fulfill his destiny, it becomes apparent that it is not as easy as it seems. With the help of his friends, Liam undertakes the journey, hoping to save his world. When he is severely injured, he goes to the one place that allows him to recover. There he meets Lilae, but is she real? Or is it just his brain playing tricks on him? Time is of the essence for both as Liam and Lilae struggle to fulfill their destinies.
I absolutely loved this book. The characters were easy to relate to. Lilae's spunky spirit and determination to overcome her odds grab the reader's heart. Liam's bravery and strength, along with some shy tendencies, endear him to readers. I loved reading about their journey and cannot wait for the next book to be published. Readers will enjoy the journey and trials the characters face in their realm of magic, and wish that they too could be part of the battle to come. This page turning novel is so full of magic, dragons, and action that it leaves you begging for more.
