If you’ve read the end of the first series, you’ll know that Vhalla’s firstborn is to be sent to the North to live among them. SOME SPOILERS AHEAD FOR THE END OF THE AIR AWAKENS SERIES This book takes place around twenty years after the events of Air Awakens and sees Vhalla and Aldrik’s daughter, Vi, as the protagonist. While most of it is explained here again as the story goes on, I feel like to get the best reading experience you really do need to have read the first series. Kova built a rich, fantastic world with simple but important rules, and there’s a lot that the first series covered (relationships between the different parts of the Empire, the culture and superstition around sorcerers, the way magic works, the history of the Empire, etc) that still plays a huge role in Vortex Visions. You probably don’t need to, since this follows different characters, but at the same time I feel like you’d lose a lot by not knowing what happened before. ⇒ Do you need to read the Air Awakens series first? Add on GoodreadsĪaaaand we’re finally back in the Air Awakens world! I can’t express how much I missed AA and its characters, and while I still haven’t managed to reread (because five books are A Lot), I still remembered enough details to dive into this sequel/spin-off and catch all the references.
