Excited for the book, but disappointed by the cover
I love this author and all her books. I haven't read this book yet and am looking forward to it. The only reason I am disappointed it the book underneath the cover isn't like I expected. I'll still read it and enjoy, but am disappointed that the cover won't be like I expected and match the others. It also sucks because the last book in this serious showed up without the sleave cover...

So this was an interesting story. Going back in time, and for what purpose?
I did like it though I’m growing less fond of the mfc Vi. Her arrogance and recklessness is frustrating to read through. Mostly her arrogance. And, well, we see it leads nowhere good.
Now things are changing and one can only hope it’s for the better. Guess we will find out in the next book.

This will be a spoiler free review. I want to profusely thank Elise for gifting me an early copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Before I jump into the actual review, I just want to quickly shout out HAPPY BOOK BIRTHDAY/RELEASE DAY to Sovereign Sacrifice and to Elise! You can grab your copy today! If you haven’t yet read any books in the Air Awakens world, then you’re seriously missing out and should rectify that immediately. Even better, you can start with the Vortex Chronicles, or the original Air Awakens Series, or even the Golden Guard Trilogy! Personally, I would recommend Golden Guard, Air Awakens, Vortex Chronicles, but it’s totally up to you!

I should not be writing this review right now.
I’m not okay.
I legit just finished reading
What do you mean I have to WAIT for book five? For Crystal Caged?
I’ll just be over here sobbing in a corner while I wait.

Once again Elise has knocked it so far out of the park that the ball is currently still heading away from Earth. I mean, oh my god. At the end of Failed Future I was shocked and had no clue what to expect Vi to do next. Vi does everything in this book and then some and we saw some sides to her that surprised me. She definitely goes through some major character developments in this book, and despite being slapped in the face with the fact that “the world she knew was gone” Vi handles herself very well. I’m so excited to see how Vi pulls off her plan devised at the end of this book.

Old and new faces resurface in this book, and the very future of the world is at stake. No pressure right? Vi has to navigate this world carefully, but what would you try and do to save the future?

I honestly don’t know what to say because I just want to scream about every single little thing that happened in this book, but S P O I L E R S. At this point it is kind of hard to talk about vague occurrences because we’re so deep in this narrative. A slight misstep could ruin so many mind-blowing moments that Elise has so artfully crafted.

This is one of those series (the whole Air Awakens World) that I wish I could actually scrub from my mind and experience for the first time all over again. With each new book, Elise continues to solidify her place as one of my all-time favorite fantasy authors – easily top five, no, top three. I fall in love with her writing with each new book and the sheer intricacy of her worlds and her characters. I’m super excited and honestly, a bit anxious to see what she does in Crystal Caged and whether or not Vi is going to be successful in her journey.

I’ll say it again, if you haven’t yet picked up these books, please do so. I’m forever glad that Facebook targeted an ad for Air Awakens at me. I would have been seriously missing out and wouldn’t have fallen in love with these characters.

“I am unique. This chance, this very moment, is ours alone. Don’t condemn me for others’ failures.”

Elise, thank you so much for this ARC. I have been dying to get back into this fantastic world. This is my honest review.

So if you have not read any of the Vortex Chronicle books read at your own risk, there will be spoilers for the previous three books.

Failed Future was a great book, but I was waiting to judge the ending to see how this book turned out. I’ve said this in a few of my other reviews, but I am not the biggest fan of time travel. I think it can be used to rewrite problems that can be solved in many different ways. I believe that it can be used as a scapegoat when used to end a series. Now that is not the case here. It wasn’t “look time travel, look everything is fine!” It was not at the end to wrap everything up.

Vi ended up thrown back into her grandmother’s time. Everything she knew and loved not yet existing. A world still in turmoil.

I loved learning about the time before Air awakens. It expanded the world for me. Sadly I had a hard time getting over how the versions of everyone I fell in love with just no longer existed. Would never exist. But in all honesty, that is a personal hang-up I have with time travel.

I think Elise did amazing expanding and shifting the world I have come to love. Characters I have long wanted to know more about finally got some page time. I saw the Emperor in a new light, as a man who would compromise nothing, unless the woman he loved was involved.

Feira was one of the characters I have been dying to learn more about. I think it was amazing to see her in her time. To learn of her, not from stories but from actually being in her time.

Vi grew so much as a character. She found herself in this lost world and refused to budge. She would save everyone. No one would sway her.

The ending was excellent, and I just need the last book in this series.

I read this book immediately upon release, after following the series in its entirety from the beginning of Air Awakens.

I am a huge fan of Elise Kova, mainly because of her world building. Her ability to generate and submerse herself in a world, excels my expectations every time. Since the beginning of Air Awakens, she has crafted a world with so many intricate threads and details, that ultimately, presses you to leave no aspect of the world unexplored for fear of missing an engaging and clever aside.

I read the Golden Guard trilogy while waiting for this novel to come out, after consuming all of her other literature, and was not disappointed. All of the intricacies flow seamlessly and contribute to creating an imaginatively vibrant world.

This novel continued growing a series, that when I started reading the first book, I was not sure where it was headed or whether I had any attachment to the characters. After reading this 5th instalment I am beyond impressed with Kova's ability to captivate an audience, and ultimately, her growth as an author over the course of the series.

As always, a must read.

All I have to say is WOW! I don't know how it will all work out...I don't know if Vi will be able to save her family....I don't know if Vi will survive. I read all of the books in the Air Awakens universe. I really think it's needed to understand this series fully. I cannot wait for the final book

I was asked yesterday , if i could re -read any book again ' What would it be?' and it would have to be the whole of this series,. I would read them again in a heartbeat. I am so envious of all you new readers who will get to meet these characters for the first time, love them,like them maybe even hate them . You will be able to open this book and be taken on a journey . You may get frustrated, you may scream and shout, you will laugh, you will cry and you will just end wanting more! I envy you all!
I cannot wait for the last book , i literally cant wait to see what happens to Vi in Crystal Caged

I am in love with this entire series. Elise Kova creates such real and captivating worlds. I love how the carachers have grown throughout the series.
The story itself is very easy to follow and hard to put down. I can guess some directions in where it will go but never predict any of the outcomes.
I don't think I'm ready to say goodbye to this world and hoping I'll manage to forget it so that I can reread over and over again!
