I wish there had been a lot more of Jory and Nia, but this was still really enjoyable to read. Brutal at times though.Disappointing.
This is one of my favorite series, I really enjoy these 4 as they get older and experience different things.
I used my study hall to finish this rather than my math homework because I have my priorities straight. Those priorities are Daja Kisubo.I think I'm just really enjoying the grounded, sensible magic of this universe being explored as the characters journey out into the world away from their familiar home! Magic Steps wasn't as big of a change because Sandry was close enough to Winding Circle to visit, but Street Magic and Cold Fire both showed us entirely different places and main characters who
Daja and Frostpine are working in the snowy city of Kugisko when a rash of devastating fires breaks out. The structure of this quartet remains formulaic, but this installment is surprisingly good. The setting, fire against snow in a well-defined woodworked city, is evocative; the plot is simplistic but the characters are not--gracelessly in the antagonist's case, but the supporting cast is strong. The nostalgia is toned down and the themes of maturation are less clear-cut, which gives Daja room
I like Daja and Frostpine a lot, and Olennika and Heluda are interesting, but there's not ENOUGH of Daja here. Too much focus on the antagonist (who at least is probably the most multi-dimensional antagonist of this series so far), not enough on Daja. Which is a shame because she had so much potential but wasn't written in way to live up to that. The pacing is also fairly uneven and there's at least one continuity error.Even worse, there's some pretty problematic stuff in this book.There's a
I really liked the worldbuilding of the city (ice-skating on the frozen canals!) and the moral complexity of the story. And I love Daja, in general. I did not like the general skeeviness of Ben's relationship with Daja and the way that that wasn't really dealt with (not sure if that counts as a spoiler, but hiding anyway). I also wanted more development of the twins as charactersit felt like that part of the plot was kind of perfunctory, just thrown in because the framing of the series required
