Loom Saga
Content:
"Cvareh returns home to his sky world of Nova with the genius crafter Arianna as his temperamental guest. The mercurial inventor possesses all the Xin family needs to turn the tides of a centuries-old power struggle, but the secrets she harbors must be earned with trust-hard to come by for Ari, especially when it comes to Dragons. On Nova, Ari finds herself closer to exacting vengeance against the traitor who killed everything-and everyone-she once loved. But before Ari can complete her campaign of revenge, the Crimson Court exposes her shadowed past and reveals something even more dangerous sparking between her and Cvareh. While Nova is embroiled in blood sport and political games, the rebels on Loom prepare for an all-out assault on their Dragon oppressors. Florence unexpectedly finds herself at the forefront of change, as her unique blend of skills-and quick-shooting accuracy-makes her a force to be reckoned with. For the future of her world, she vows vengeance against the Dragons. Before the rebellion can rise, though, the Guilds must fall."

Biographisches: "Elise Kova, USA Today bestselling author of the fantasy series Air Awakens, has always had a profound love of fantastical worlds. The holder of a master's degree in business administration, she currently lives in St. Petersburg, Florida. Visit her at elisekova.com." Rezension(2): "〈a href=http://www.publishersweekly.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/pw_logo.png alt=Publisher's Weekly border=0 /〉〈/a〉: May 22, 2017 In this muted second book in the Loom trilogy (following The Alchemists of Loom ), Kova’s steampunk-edged fantasy lags into dreary repetition. Above the world of Loom float the Islands of Nova, home of the dragons that rule over the earthbound humans called Fenthri. The Fenthri have advanced mechanical knowledge, but their guns and bombs are no match for dragon magic. Fenthri Arianna and dragon Cvareh have made an abrupt departure from Loom via glider, and now Arianna is learning what the higher half of the world looks like. The islands are brilliantly light-bathed, and their architecture defies gravity, but Arianna is allowed to see little of them. She and Cvareh are here to find the essence that powers the Philosopher’s Box, which will help them liberate the Fenthri from dragon rule, but they must conduct their search while concealing Cvareh’s trip to Loom from dragon king Yveun Dono, who kills on a whim. Too much of the story is spent waiting for something to happen, and both dragon and Fenthri characters tend toward the insufferable."
