Animages are feared and controlled because they are the only ones who can bond with the legendary phoenixes, transforming the individuals into the fierce Phoenix Riders that almost took down the reigning powers. This gifted group of people goes into hiding lest their ability to communicate with animals earns them a criminal offense and forced service for the empire. The result was a bloody war that put riders and their magnificent phoenixes on the edge of extinction and began the persecution of animages. Queen Avalkyra Ashfire and her famed Phoenix Riders took to the skies in a blaze to rebel against the kingdom that failed her. It’s a unique story that is well-written, has a fully developed world that wasn’t delivered via info dumping, and is led by characters with actual depth. Over the years I have been worn down after reading many lackluster books in the category, but this one is a bright spark that deserves attention. It’s books like Crown of Feathers by Nicki Pau Preto that rekindle my love for YA.
