Write a YA book about a school that mixes magic, martial arts and meditation and just like that; I'm in love.

A world painted so vivid, like brushstrokes of paint on canvas; characters so real they seem to live as people in your imagination
There's clearly an awful lot more from where it came from, and Ryan Cahill is clearly in no hurry to show the full extent of his impressive range
SFF authors spend a lot of time building utterly fantastical worlds drawn from countless imaginative figments, any one of which is bound to draw you in.
Dragged into a mission well beyond her capabilities, she must acknowledge that sheer wits and brawn will not be enough to face this foe.
But, if you enjoy such details as much as you enjoy the story, you'll agree that Robert Jordan is the greatest fantasy author of all time.
Whenever there was a murder, I found it fun to try and guess who did it... I loved the unpredictability of it all.
Also, the character development has reached a level where readers can actually identify characters by their speech, mannerisms and actions. It's the height of realism.
I will compare the movie and the comic books because, yes, while I liked watching the characters come to life on screen, I did have some gripes with it.
One of the times I love about this book is how each character is unique and has a purpose; none of them is a filler; they each have something important to contribute to the story.
As usual, I have nothing but praise for Efua's writing. It's easy to read, and you're sure to stay glued to the story.
The author’s style of writing and world-building is not unnecessarily complex, making the book an easy read. The switch in POVs makes for an exciting change in pace and format throughout the book. Nico, Libby, and Reina’s POVs are baseline YA, while Callum, Parisa, and Tristan lend more jaded experiences.
