Thank you to NetGalley and Victory Editing Netgalley Co-op for the free ebook ARC in exchange for my honest opinion of the book.
Mirage is a royal girl with an abusive king dad and a brooding-but-kind twin brother. She is brutally forced to learn the truth about herself and her family when she's sold to a mythic kingdom full of magic.

The plot and pacing were great. I loved that each person's magic was given its own particular scent in this book-very creative. The scenery/imagery/powers were described beautifully (keeping it vague to avoid spoilers). However, there were multiple points that dialogue felt unnatural and that pulled me out of the book several times, as did the descriptors of it ("cooed", "purred", etc being used quite often). While it was an interesting idea and story, I'm not sure if I'll read the next in the series.

Kingdom of the Sun was an alright book.
The plot was well thought out, and the pacing was good, however I couldn't read it past the 50% mark.
The MC Mirage was likeable and well thought out. The world building was thought out and easy to follow, and the magic system was well written.
However, the dialog was poorly written, and unbelievable and kept pulling me out of the book.
The first two chapters felt like info dumping instead of me being able to fully bond with the character.
I recomend you try this book, but it just wasn't for me.
I feel like it would be a wonderful book, if it wasn't for the dialog and the random moments of info dumping that pulled me out of the book.

Mirage is sold to a magical kingdom. She goes through training and a scary magical awakening in her new place. She finds a family and friends and must risk herself to save them....

Love Mirage. A very likable heroine. The world is fun and unique. Really enjoy the story.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

Cannot wait for book 2, really intrigued to see what happens next, i also really loved the cover too.
Definitely felt long at some parts but by the end the pace picked up so was glad i kept reading.

This was a wonderfully engaging epic fantasy full of action and interesting characters. The world building was so vivid and the plot always had me wanting to continue on to each chapter. I especially liked the magical components of this book. Perfect for all fantasy lovers!

Thank you NetGalley for this e-arc.
