Children of Fire #3

Heirs of Avalon

Rate this book

Christmas lights and her sixteenth birthday brighten Sapphire’s days. Her London nights are warmed by the attentions of Ramsey, a kilt-wearing selkie with a smile that promises both fun and trouble.


She is growing into the role of leader of the Children of Fire. But her closeness with Ramsey and choice to withhold information causes distrust within her family. Their weakened bond allows a new evil to grow, unrecognized, around them.


Horrified by the consequences her decisions have on the people she loves, Sapphire has to choose between her own happiness and her responsibilities as the Jewel of Akasha.

The story is original, the whole series is original. I really enjoyed this one because it amps up the excitement for me. The characters throughout the series have been my favorite for many reasons but mainly because they are believable characters. The challenges they face in this book make the story and characters even better. I love the magic too because it is fun and fresh compared to other books! Honestly I need more people to read this series so I have others to fan-girl with me. I recommend to all!

I loved the third book in Alica's Children of Fire series! The character development was the best it has ever been. There were many moments of tearing up and laughing out loud. It was very intriguing, mysterious, and I can't wait for #4!!!

Full of magic and dangerous creatures, this book proved to be too overwhelming. New challenges present themselves with new love and possibilities. Sapphire celebrates her 16th birthday with full grandeur and fun but there in lies a looming threat over the family. As the Children of Fire deal with their own issues and are not ready to trust Sapphire, a danger is becoming imminent and is getting ready to strike them. The novel goes through various twists and turns leading to development of the characters in quite a good way with laughter and tears intermingled. Loved it!
