Frozen Hearts and Death Magic by Day Leitao
4.0
I was hooked from the very beginning!
I can’t say there is a single part of this book that I didn’t enjoy. Everything, from the writing, to the characters, and the plot kept me on my toes and left me eager for more. For me Frozen Hearts and Death Magic was a nice slow-burn romance nicely woven into a wonderful fantasy plot.
Political intrigue, manipulation, and maneuvering create an intense world where the stakes are very high for each character. I really liked the characters, and their stories and situations drew me in pretty quickly. River is my favorite. Fel is so honorable and decent and kind, and his self-sacrificing nature. Leah is stronger than others credit her for, and it’s a good thing. She suffers so much through the story. River and Naia are also well-developed. River has a lot of secrets, much to Naia’s frustration. He is as mysterious as the fae world he takes her to, and it’s interesting to see Naia slowly learn more about him and his kingdom.
Frozen Hearts and Death Magic is a great start to the Of Fire and Fae series, and after the twists and turns and surprise revelations, I’m eager to read the next book and see what happens to all four protagonists as their journey continues.
