The Memory of Fire by Callie Bates

The Memory of Fire by Callie Bates 





The Memory of Fire is the sequel in The Walking Land trilogy, and an even more of a page turner than the first book. It follows Jahan Korakides, through his perspective, on a journey to his homeland, family, and pseudo-homeland of which he “persuaded” himself into the higher position in court. While his love, Elanna, is in Eren. Jahan tries to secure a truce between the lands with the emperor. With the magic ban still in place in his pseudo-homeland the emperor refuses. When things immediately go from bad to worse, Jahan joins an underground rebellion group of sorcerers set on changing the fate of the land.

The first book was incredible and it was a very exciting read. I could not find it in myself to put this book down! There was even more magic, adventure, and more depth when it comes to dealing with inner demons. It touches heavier on Jahan’s home life and family, but also what he had to do to survive and keep his brothers safe. The two main characters of the series thus far, Elanna and Jahan, are very different in terms of their magic and inner fight. They both want the same outcome, magic free across the realm, but go about it in different ways. The final book in this trilogy, The Soul of Power, is out and I can not wait to read it! It is through the perspective of Sophy Dunbarron, and a conclusion where hopefully peace and magic will prevail. 

I highly recommend this series for anyone who loves the Throne of Glass and A Court of Thorns and Roses series!
