The people of Nelebek live in fear of persecution from the
evil Morlet, who reigns with a dark and destructive magic. The kingdom’s only
hope lies with the Order of the Krigers—twelve warriors with mysterious powers
linked to magical weapons.
For over a century, Morlet has been annihilating the Order,
picking them off one by one. Eleven Krigers have been hunted down, tortured,
and imprisoned in his dungeon. Now, only one remains.
Sixteen-year-old Kaia survives by keeping her head down and
minding her own business. But when she finds herself in the middle of a public
execution where the mysterious Morlet is in attendance, an odd compulsion she
can’t resist comes over her.
Kaia looks into Morlet’s eyes.
Soon, an ancient power awakens and Kaia can no more blend
into the scenery. Will she heed the call of the Krigers or will Morlet’s dark
magic destroy the last of the Order?
Oh how I loved this YA fantasy novel! RISE pulled me into Kaia's world, a kingdom ran by an evil ruler, where only 12 special warriors can stop him. There's adventure, romance potential, and lots of action!!
Thankfully Kaia has been trained to defend herself. I found her compassionate yet strong, like Tris in Divergent.
Then there's Anders. Ah! My favourites are the bad guys you can't help but love. An assassin by trade he ends up helping Kaia on her quest; however, he proves to drive her crazy more than butterflies for the most part.
