The previous three books have focused the main storyline on Lindon’s advancement towards a greater power, and yes, at its core this is the main strength of Cradle and Progression Fantasy. “I don’t have any love for the Jai clan, but as for you, if I saw you on fire I’d hold an umbrella for you so the rain didn’t put you out.” But now? I might be having nightmares if I don’t continue with the series. What happened in Skysworn is the direction that the series needs, although I highly enjoyed Blackflame, I didn’t have that uncontrollable urge to continue with the series. I honestly think that Skysworn was even better than Blackflame imagine my surprise when I found out that many readers thought of this one as a downgrade for the series. Skysworn, just like each respective previous books, once again upgraded the overall quality of the Cradle series. The series is often compared to anime, with fans using phrases like "anime in book form" or "fantasy novels meet Dragon Ball Z," emphasizing the story's specialty of loud and colorful super-powered battles.Wei Shi Lindon may not have any advancement happening to him in this book, but the series did. Cradle is high-stakes, fast-paced, and action-focused, with minimal time dedicated to world-building, and as such the books are lean and focused.
The Cradle series is the best-selling example of the Progression Fantasy subgenre, which includes works of fantasy where the primary plot revolves around a character growing more powerful in their use of magic. In the sacred arts, only those who risk the most can travel far. Success means a chance at life, but failure means death. In the course of their training, Lindon and Yerin travel to the Blackflame Empire, where they struggle to master an ancient power. Unless he learns the magic of the sacred arts the right way, from scratch, he won't have a chance to win.and even then, the odds are against him. When his time runs out, he'll have to fight an opponent that no one believes he can beat.
The third volume in the New York Times best-selling Cradle series!
