In The Rise of Kyoshi, author F. C. Yee pens a captivating tale set in the vibrant world of the Earth Kingdom. This gripping narrative follows the extraordinary journey of Kyoshi, an unassuming girl with a destiny far greater than she could ever imagine. Upon discovering her identity as the Avatar, Kyoshi is thrust into a tumultuous world of elemental bending, political conspiracies, and hidden adversaries. Her path is fraught with challenges that will test her strength, resilience, and determination to bring justice to a world in disarray.

As Kyoshi embarks on her quest, she transforms from a young outcast into a formidable force, establishing her legacy as the longest-living Avatar. Along the way, she builds the fearless Kyoshi Warriors, renowned for their skills and dedication to maintaining peace and balance. However, in her zealous pursuit of justice, Kyoshi's decisions inadvertently lay the foundations for the enigmatic Dai Li, an organisation whose secretive methods eventually lead to unforeseen consequences for her own nation.

Yee expertly crafts a rich tapestry of vivid characters, intricate conflicts, and poignant themes, all woven into the expansive lore of the Avatar universe. Fans of the series will relish in the exploration of Kyoshi's origin story, while new readers will be drawn into a world brimming with elemental magic and moral complexity.

An instant USA Today and New York Times bestseller, The Rise of Kyoshi is the first of two novels chronicling the unstoppable rise of Kyoshi. This enthralling prequel not only honours the beloved Avatar franchise but also adds depth and nuance to its rich history, guaranteeing a memorable reading experience for audiences seeking adventure and inspiration.
