She did it again. I absolutely loved the Trial of the Sun Queen series, so I was incredibly excited to dive into Storm Breaker - and I ended up loving it just as much. The worldbuilding was fantastic, the writing was captivating, and I really enjoyed being introduced to the world of the Storm Breakers alongside the characters. The cast was engaging and easy to connect with, making the story even more enjoyable. My only small disappointment was that the promised deadly trials weren’t quite as intense as I had hoped they would be. I expected a little more from that aspect of the story. But overall? This book was amazing. It kept me hooked from beginning to end, and I can easily see it becoming one of my favorite reads of the year.
