Book Review: Breath of Fire by Amanda Bouchet

Breath of Fire,” book 2 of the Kingmaker Chronicles Trilogy begins where book 1 “A Promise of Fire” left off. Cat’s secret out of the bag turned out to be a new beginning instead of the end of her love affair with Griffin.

But, that love comes with a price and the price is a journey to the most dangerous part of the realm. And though they have a very small chance of succeeding, their success in this first quest means they must go to a do or die challenge that can change the world or end it.

To Cat, it is a matter of damn if she does, and damned if she doesn’t. So, does she really have a choice? And will Griffin agree?

Hard to put down once you start, “Breath of Fire” appeals to fantasy readers who are fans of A Game of Thrones. Amanda Bouchet might be a new name in the genre, but she definitely is catching the attention of the very discerning sci-fi/fantasy fans.

Breath of Fire (The Kingmaker Chronicles)” is Rated M for Mature due to violence and sexual content.
