However, Imprison the Sky may have changed my feelings on the setting because I loved it in this book! The idea of a following ship, thanks to the Elementae, was so original, in my opinion.My favorite part of the pirate-esque setting was the crew’s comradery. The humor between the two also made me break out my page tabs to highlight all their hilarious and sarcastic tidbits.ĭespite being an ocean girl, I am not the biggest fan of pirate books.
I loved his relationship with Aspasia, adding much to his power and character development. Kairos was one of my favorite characters from Reign the Earth, so I loved how he was a central character in this installment. My favorite thing, or should I say person, that transferred from Reign the Earth to this sequel? ( Minor spoiler) Kairos! Gaughen so nicely intertwined Reign the Earth’s storyline and ending with Imprison the Sky, while making the latter still feel like its own story. Her crew also features Elementae with other powers, including ones that are beyond the four elements. While Shalia discovers more about her power in the first installment, Aspasia knows her ability to control wind by heart. From start to finish, the plot kept me on the edge of my seat. Gaughen completed delivered with the world building in Imprison the Sky. However, I quickly fell in love with Aspasia and her story. Since I loved Shalia and Reign the Earth so much, I was nervous going into this book. Gaughen’s Reign the Earth is one of my favorite fantasy books (go feminist fantasy!), I couldn’t wait to dive into the next book in the Elementae series, Imprison the Sky. And if Aspasia can’t find her younger siblings before Cyrus does, she will never be able to break free.Īrmed with her loyal crew full of Elementae and a new recruit who controls an intriguing power, Aspasia finds herself in the center of a brewing war that spans every inch of the ocean, and her power alone may not be enough to save her friends, family, and freedom. (From the publisher) Stolen from her family as a child, Aspasia has clawed her way up the ranks of Cyrus’s black market empire to captain her own trading vessel–and she risks it all every time she uses her powerful magic to free as many women, children, and Elementae from slavery as she can.īut Cyrus is close to uncovering her secrets–not only that Aspasia is an air Elementa with the ability to sail her ship through the sky, but that she is also searching for her lost family.
