An Heir Comes to Rise by Chloe C. Peñaranda

3.0

This feels like an introduction. I like the characters and world, the setup is compelling and I’m looking forward to the rest of the series. Not a knockout as a stand-alone, hence only 3 stars. The map is really intriguing, and makes me think the story will deliver on whole-world impact and stakes as the series continues. I’ve got high hopes, but this first installment isn’t enough to warrant my recommendation to others until I see expansion in complexity of the overall story and more character development.
