Chronicles of the Avatar Book 4: The Legacy of Yangchen by FC Yee

 

Chronicles of the Avatar Book 4

From the New York Times bestselling author of Avatar, the Last Airbender: The Rise of Kyoshi and Avatar, the Last Airbender: The Shadow of Kyoshi comes a thrilling new chapter in the Chronicles of the Avatar series and page-turning follow-up to Avatar, the Last Airbender: The Dawn of Yangchen

Common enemies make for strange friends . . .

Avatar Yangchen has succeeded in bringing a measure of stability to Bin-Er, but her successes have been limited to a single city, and rumors concerning Unanimity—a weapon capable of total obliteration—have led to increasing tensions among the Four Nations.

Desperate to restore diplomacy, Yangchen attempts to de-escalate hostilities between heads of state. But in the wake of a brutal assassination and the freeing of Unanimity, Yangchen is forced to bring Kavik—the trusted former companion whose betrayal crushed her—back into her fold.

As the Four Nations teeter on the brink of conflict and she begins to unravel the power-hungry Zongdu Chaisee’s true agenda, Yangchen is forced to measure the worth of humanity, and how much can be sacrificed in the name of balance.

This taut and provocative fourth installment in the Chronicles of the Avatar series follows Avatar Yangchen as she charts the course of her legacy, finally making peace with her choices and facing Avatarhood with the courage it demands.

My Review: 4/5 Stars

In the aftermath of the last book, a lot has changed for Yangchen and Kavik. Kavik’s betrayal has put him at odds with Yangchen but into the hands of the White Lotus while Yangchen is doing her best to end Unanimity once and for all and those who have created it. But in a world of power hungry leaders, she is going to need all the help she can get. Soon Yangchen and Kavik cross paths once more and have no choice but to work together again. Kavik wants to make things right but gaining Yangchen’s forgiveness and the others on her team is no easy thing. Lots of action and revelations in this one! And of course all the twists and turns that will keep you on your toes. You just never know what is going to happen and just when you think you figured it out, someone is a step ahead. A nice resolution to Yangchen’s story for sure! And it’s always nice to see bits and pieces that we catch in the Avatar show.
