The power to control the elements, at the cost of your humanity.
Long ago, the gods blessed mankind with the power to call the elements, but at a terrible price. Without the protection of a ward rune, the power wilds its users, twisting them into monsters resembling the element they control.
Wilding and runes have never been of great concern to 16-year-old Elias. His talented half-brother Marc was given a rune by Gaya’s Holy Grove not long after being blessed with lifecalling, so Elias has never worried much about the wilding that happens to unmarked callers.
But when Elias is blessed with windcalling, like his foreign father, it feels a lot more like a curse, since there are no runes for windcallers in his homeland of Eshira. Knowing that unmarked who aren’t lifecallers tend to disappear, Marc risks everything to help Elias escape, betraying both his country and his goddess.
As Elias searches for a rune to halt the wilding and Marc is thrown into a brutal war, both brothers will learn shocking truths about themselves and the world around them.
The Call of Wind is the first book in the Unmarked series and will appeal to fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Shadow and Bone, and Eragon.
You follow two brothers on their own different quest in this world, so you get a more deeper journey through this amazing world. The thing I like the most is that K.R has made it very easy to visualize the world and it's characters. Which will also be a great thing to look for if you are newer into fantasy. Every side characters and main character are fun and intriguing to join along. And for me it didn't really matter which brother I read, because both was great in each and their own way.
The writing style is great and easy to follow along, and makes the story flow by and makes every chapter fun and exciting to read. I also think K.R did it great on the religious part about the story, which is alot. Since its heavily based on that in this world.
Narrator did also a fantastic job, with bringing this story and it's characters to life. So if you are a audio lover, I recommend giving this a shot.
Overall I think this was a great read, and are excited to see what happens in the next book.
