Citadel of the Sky by Chrysoula Tzavelas

3.0

In ‘Citadel of the Sky’ we meet Tiana, a princess of a family with magic in their bloodline which makes her family go mad. There is a lot going on in the world around Tiana. There are some suspicious deaths happening and the Noble’s Councils seems eager to cover everything up. Tiana is determined to find out what is really happening, and who is killing her friends and advisors.

This review is definitely a difficult one for me write. I finished reading this book and decided it was best to write the review immediately after because I found this book hard to understand at times. Especially in the beginning. English is not my first language, but since I have been reading all my books in English since I was twelve years old, I normally don’t have many difficulties in understanding words and sentences. But in the beginning of this book I really felt like I didn’t understand everything. The words Eidolon and logos were not really explained in the book, and I had to look it up to get what they really meant. This made me not get into the story very easily.

But I kept reading and I definitely became fascinated by this story and the characters. There is a lot happening in this book and I’m glad I kept reading because the storyline was very intriguing. I think the author did an amazing job in creating a unique story. Although I would have preferred a little more introduction into the world and the characters, the authors writing style definitely made me want to keep reading and see what would happen next.

This book was definitely a nice read. I had some difficulties, but the story and the writing style really made up for those.
