The first book of the Sea and Stone series and the third book of the Elements of Iteria series is an absolute stunner. Full of magic, mystery, trials, and tension that will have you on the edge of your seat, this is everything I have come to love from Mikayla D. Hornedo and then some.
The world building is lush and fleshes out the universe so beautifully so if you’ve read B&B and A&I you will catch some very cool Easter eggs that will have you pointing and going OHHOHHH I GET THAT REFERENCE! If not, you will still enjoy a fully immersive world that is just beautifully written and so cool in a “oh, thanks but no, thanks” kind of way.
The characters? Well, Sol and Khaya and Niko who we spend most of our time with? I would die for all three of them. All of the others, whether they be friend or foe, are so intriguing and I am absolutely on board with their journeys.
The trials, the mystery, the mythology, this is a book where I was glued to every page and the ending made me literally scream.
Give me more Sand and Stone. Give me more Elements of Iteria.
