THE SKY ON FIRE by Jenn Lyons ||

This one took the cake for the worst book I've picked up and attempted to read in 2024. I'm sharing my thoughts and opinions on the 63% I did read and I hope to portray this book more accurately than the reviewer who catfished me into requesting the ARC for this one so that it finds its way to the right readers.

I just wanted to point out that the "late blooming" is just Lyon's way of describing trans women and "late sprouting" is her way of describing trans men in this world. I don't think it's any more complicated than that. =) I think Lyons did do a good job of describing things such as the garden rings and social rings in such a way that it was natural and not info-dumping. But that's just my opinion. Overall, I really enjoyed this novel and found the last 1/3 especially difficult to put down! The dragons are so varied and the interplay between humans and dragons is so interesting!

I under what she was doing with the late blooming/late sprouting, I just wish she had explained it more in depth. Same thing with the rings - all of this was exciting and intriguing, but just not enough information or attention given to developing it, in my opinion.

Hmm. Sky in Fire sounds like something that wouldn't even be up my alley. Chorus of Dragons is more typical fantasy.

Hello from the Czech Republic and thank you for a very good review. I absolutely agree with every word you said in the video about the book - and I read it till the end.

[@TheNerdyNarrative]

Why hello!!! And thank you!

I ended up liking it, but I'm not a character driven reader. I do agree with all of your critiques, though. I do say in my review that character work was not the goal with this book 🤣

[@TheNerdyNarrative]

I just wish she'd developed all the cool stuff she teased!!! lol

Ruin of Kings is good. I've heard Sky on Fire isn't.

Well, you can now add me to those who says Sky on Fire isn't
