“She had two choices. One was to continue lying there, doing nothing. The other was to get up and defy all odds. To reach and try for something that the world didn’t think she should have.”

Ce livre a été un coup de cœur. Je suis directement rentrée dans cet univers rempli de magie et de créatures fantastiques. La trame était assez classique mais au contraire c’est ce que j’attendais de ce livre. J’ai beaucoup aimé la magie en rapport aux quatre éléments et la manière dont les héros s’en servent. Certaines choses étaient prévisibles mais j’ai aimé que ça se passe de cette manière car c’est exactement le genre de déroulement que j’aime. J’ai hâte que la suite sorte cette automne pour poursuivre cette saga car je pense que le tome 2 sera un peu plus sombre

Résumé
Ice is in her blood.
Eighteen-year-old Waterrunner Eira Landan lives her life in the shadows — the shadow of her older brother, of her magic’s whispers, and of the person she accidentally killed. She’s the most unwanted apprentice in the Tower of Sorcerers until the day she decides to step out and compete for a spot in the Tournament of Five Kingdoms.
Pitted against the best sorcerers in the Empire, Eira fights to be one of four champions. Excelling in the trials has its rewards. She's invited to the royal court with the “Prince of the Tower,” discovers her rare talent for forbidden magic, and at midnight, Eira meets with a handsome elfin ambassador.
But, Eira soon learns, no reward is without risk. As she comes into the spotlight, so too do the skeletons of a past she hadn't even realized was haunting her.
Eira went into the trials ready for a fight. Ready to win. She wasn't ready for what it would cost her. No one expected the candidates might not make it out with their lives.
This is the first book in a young adult, epic fantasy that's a tale of competition, coming of age, distant lands, elemental magic, and romance. It's perfect for fans of the Legend of Korra, Truthwitch, and A Sorcery of Thorns.
