Externally, the characters faced conflict at almost every turn in their journey, which made for an exciting, action-packed story without a dull moment.

Conflict in the Rise of Kyoshi, both internal and external, was all very compelling and I enjoyed watching it unfold. One of the most important parts of the Avatar’s story is the conflict and challenges that they have to face. One of the main aspects of the book that aided the plot was its conflict. It was captivating every step of the way. The plot was well-paced and kept me consistently interested with well-distributed plot twists and interesting new developments. Every event contributed to the story in a significant way, whether its purpose was character development, exposition, or even to add an interesting twist to the story. Much like the characters, I didn’t feel like any of the story was just filler, and none of it felt like it dragged on unnecessarily. The plot flowed well and remained interesting throughout the whole book.

The plot was another aspect of the story that was very well crafted. None of the characters felt like they were thrown in as fillers, and they all served a purpose that was relevant to the story and helped carry along the plot of the story. All of the characters played unique roles throughout the story. For example, when she told Rangi, “I’m scared, alright? I’m scared of him and I don’t know what else will make it go away” (269), the reader is shown the deeper emotions and traits that make up her true character. I particularly liked how Kyoshi was depicted through her dialogue, conflict, and emotion. Kyoshi’s character, as well as all of the other characters in the show, was interesting and complex.

I hoped the book would describe her character in greater detail, and I was not disappointed. In the shows, she was mainly portrayed as a fearsome and powerful avatar who was willing to go to great lengths to maintain justice and peace. The Rise of Kyoshi comes first chronologically in the Avatar timeline which made it an obvious choice to dive deeper into the universe, but the main thing that drew me to it was the main character, Kyoshi. I had hoped that this book would provide the same captivating experience as the shows, and I would say that overall it lived up to all of my expectations. Yee because I had just recently watched Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra and wanted to further explore the Avatar world. I chose to read The Rise of Kyoshi by F.C.
