The Fragile Threads Of Power (Threads of Power #1_ by V.E. Schwab - A Review

 “She sighed in relief. "You came."

Kell stepped into the room, the black ring's cord swinging from his fingers. "You called.”

― V.E. Schwab, The Fragile Threads of Power

It is so good to be back in this world!! I have missed it!!

The Fragile Threads of Power is the 1st book in the new Threads of Power trilogy by my favourite V.E. Schwab. It is set in the same world as her Shades of Magic series but it takes place 7 years after the end of the last book. 

Well, I don't have many words to say only three: I LOVED IT!!

The world building is excellent and the same is true for Victoria's writing. I just love her writing style. The magic system was always my favourite.

It was really good to see again old and loved characters but I also really liked the new ones, especially Tes, and I cannot wait to learn more about them in the next books.

The plot in this book was excellent and it was full of adventure and action.

I cannot wit for the next book!

About the book:

Once, there were four worlds, nestled like pages in a book, each pulsing with fantastical power, and connected by a single city: London. Until the magic grew too fast, and forced the worlds to seal the doors between them in a desperate gamble to protect their own. The few magicians who could still open the doors grew more rare as time passed and now, only three Antari are known in recent memory―Kell Maresh of Red London, Delilah Bard of Grey London, and Holland Vosijk, of White London.

But barely a glimpse of them have been seen in the last seven years―and a new Antari named Kosika has appeared in White London, taking the throne in Holland's absence. The young queen is willing to feed her city with blood, including her own―but her growing religious fervor has the potential to drown them instead.

And back in Red London, King Rhy Maresh is threatened by a rising rebellion, one determined to correct the balance of power by razing the throne entirely.

Amidst this tapestry of old friends and new enemies, a girl with an unusual magical ability comes into possession of a device that could change the fate of all four worlds.

Her name is Tes, and she's the only one who can bring them together―or unravel it all.

See you in the next post and don't forget to keep reading!!!
