The Raven Tower by Author Emma Miles – Book Review

Enter the world of the Fire Walkers, strong and remarkable women possessing sight beyond sight, who are guided through the flames by the fire element spirits. They bring hope and independence to those who are doomed to a life of slavery, and freedom from the evil necromancers, destroying those that walk in death, with their passion, lethal skills and inner power and foresight.

The Raven Tower the first book in the Fire Walker series introduces Kesta, a feisty, intelligent, resilient, and inspirational leader, who touches the lives of so many as she makes the ultimate sacrifice, her freedom for the safety of her home and the people she loves. She is a character that the reader instantly falls in love with. And one to admire, who in the face of adversity does not cow before powerful men, but proves that she is a force to be reckoned with and in many cases surpasses them. Her wit and sense of humour, brought a smile to my face, and didn’t disappoint at all as a leading character.

Without giving away any spoilers, this beautiful written and well crafted story, offers everything that a reader could want in a book. There is magic, drama, action, thrills, twists and turns. It is a true rollercoaster ride of emotions, especially where Kesta’s relationship with the Dark Man is concerned, which I loved.

The supporting characters, are realistic and heart warming, and I adored the beautiful friendship & loyalty demonstrated between the women.

The Raven Tower is a book and a definite page turner, one that has moved me so much as a reader, that I shall definitely be adding to my own personal library collection. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.

Thank you, Emma, for allowing the Book Dragon to review your work. This is one of the best books that I have read, and so it will come as no surprise that I am awarding 5 Stars.
