Summary
When ancient magic tests a newfound love， a dark fate beckons 。 。 。
Magic has been banished in the land of Syhl Shallow for as long as best friends Jax and Callyn can remember。 They once loved the stories of the powerful magesmiths and mythical scravers who could conjure fire or control ice， but now they’ve learned that magic only leads to danger: magic is what killed Callyn’s parents， leaving her alone to raise her younger sister。 Magic never helped Jax， whose leg was crushed in an accident that his father has been punishing him for ever since。 Magic won’t save either of them when the tax collector comes calling， threatening to take their homes if they can't pay what they owe。
Meanwhile， Jax and Callyn are astonished to learn magic has returned to Syhl Shallow -- in the form of a magesmith who's now married to their queen。 Now， the people of Syhl Shallow are expected to allow dangerous magic in their midst， and no one is happy about it。
When a stranger rides into town offering Jax and Callyn silver in exchange for holding secret messages for an anti-magic faction， the choice is obvious -- even if it means they may be aiding in a plot to destroy their new king。 It’s a risk they’re both willing to take。 That is， until another visitor arrives: handsome Lord Tycho， the King’s Courier， the man who’s been tasked with discovering who’s conspiring against the throne。
Suddenly， Jax and Callyn find themselves embroiled in a world of shifting alliances， dangerous flirtations， and ancient magic 。 。 。 where even the deepest loyalties will be tested。

Here we are again， a new series following the Cursebreakers books by Brigid Kemmerer。 I don’t want to spoil any of the things that happened in Cursebreakers or want to give away anything from this book but all I have to say is that it was a great read and a perfect way to start the new series。 While it was a slow start it was a good start nonetheless。 The story takes place 4 years after A Vow So Bold and Deadly and features 3 main POVS。1） Tychno- a 19 year old working for the king （appeared in A Here we are again， a new series following the Cursebreakers books by Brigid Kemmerer。 I don’t want to spoil any of the things that happened in Cursebreakers or want to give away anything from this book but all I have to say is that it was a great read and a perfect way to start the new series。 While it was a slow start it was a good start nonetheless。 The story takes place 4 years after A Vow So Bold and Deadly and features 3 main POVS。1） Tychno- a 19 year old working for the king （appeared in A Heart So Fierce and Broken）2） Jax- 18 year old blacksmith （new character）3） Callyn- 18 year old baker （new character）We also get cameos of some of our favs from the Cursebreakers series。 I liked Tychno and while Jax and Callyn were a bit harder to connect too they werent too bad （ though Callyn’s storyline made me want to scream in frustration at times， but thats just how it is sometimes）。 I can’t wait to see where the next books go and how these characters grow！！ *Thanks Netgalley and Bloomsbury USA Children's Books， Bloomsbury YA for sending me an arc in exchange for an honest review* 。。。more

5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Thank you Netgalley and publisher for the e-arc for an honest opinion。Please take in mind it’s my opinion， and everyone is allowed to have one。 Can I say I absolutely loved this book？ Because I did！！ Did I mention this is TYCHO’s book？ He was one of my favorite characters in the Cursebreaker serie， to say i’m extremely happy he’s gotten his own book is an understatement。 Everything from the characters to the plot was written so perfectly， might love this more than ACSDAL。 Also 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Thank you Netgalley and publisher for the e-arc for an honest opinion。Please take in mind it’s my opinion， and everyone is allowed to have one。 Can I say I absolutely loved this book？ Because I did！！ Did I mention this is TYCHO’s book？ He was one of my favorite characters in the Cursebreaker serie， to say i’m extremely happy he’s gotten his own book is an understatement。 Everything from the characters to the plot was written so perfectly， might love this more than ACSDAL。 Also let me say the title of this book is so genius， I know now why it’s called the way it is， it fits perfectly。We have gotten old characters， but also are getting to learn new ones。 I absolutely loved Nora’s character， she was so funny and everything how a little sister is。 Also love the chemistry between the characters！ To everyone who loved the cursebreaker serie you’ll absolutely love this book too！ We are getting answers that wasn’t answered in that serie。 I am so excited for what’s to come next！！ 。。。more

*So received an ARC in exchange for an honest review。 First， if you haven’t read the Cursebreaker trilogy， don’t read this book yet。 It 100% requires you to have knowledge of the story line and characters in that series。 That’s not a bad thing - just be forewarned， this book assumes you’re familiar with the story and will spoil many plot points in the Cursebreaker trilogy for you。At around page 300， I realized I should probably stop waiting for the story to happen。 I really enjoyed the fast pace *So received an ARC in exchange for an honest review。 First， if you haven’t read the Cursebreaker trilogy， don’t read this book yet。 It 100% requires you to have knowledge of the story line and characters in that series。 That’s not a bad thing - just be forewarned， this book assumes you’re familiar with the story and will spoil many plot points in the Cursebreaker trilogy for you。At around page 300， I realized I should probably stop waiting for the story to happen。 I really enjoyed the fast pace of the Cursebreaker trilogy， but Forging Silver Into Stars reads more like really loooooong set up for a second book。 There’s lots of repeating scenes here with minimal character development， and I started to get the sense that the actual story is about Grey and Lia Mara - though they’ve been relegated to the role of side characters we only get to briefly see through Tycho’s perspective。 And while I did enjoy Tycho’s character， I struggled to connect with Jax and Callyn on an emotional level。 There’s no climactic action until the very last 50-100 pages， so it was hard for me to figure out their role - I know I’m supposed to sympathize with their plight but nothing spurs them into action， even things that I personally thought should。 It’s just a lot of indecision and talking around the truth。 Speaking of truth， what little plot there is here hangs on poor communication between every single character， which got frustrating fast。 And I get it - miscommunication and poor communication are factors of everyday life。 But when it’s an ongoing thread that has to sustain 500 pages of conversation…it does get a bit old。I realize this review makes it sound like I hated the book。 And I don’t think it’d be accurate to say I enjoyed it。 But will I read the next one？ Yeah， definitely。 I care too much about the original cast of characters to not keep reading， and I have hope that all this set up will turn into a much faster paced second book。 Oh gosh， I hope。 。。。more

The Cursebreaker series is one of my absolute favorites， so I could not be happier to have made the jump back into the Cursebreaker world with FORGING SILVER INTO STARS。 And it was everything I ever could have hoped for。 Kemmerer has a very engaging writing style and I loved getting a closer look at Tycho， King Grey’s right hand man。 From the action scenes to the romance to the challenges of close friends and family， this book was perfect。 I absolutely cannot wait for the next one

Wow。 I am at a loss for words。 I have always loved Brigid’s books， but I think this one might be my favorite。 I have not one but TWO cinnamon rolls， an amazing story， characters that I adored from the previous series， and a dash of romance！ I can’t wait for the next book！

I’ve been so excited for a Tycho book since Brigid hinted about it and it does not disappoint！！ I love Jax and Callyn so so much and getting to revisit Emberfall and Syhl Shallow makes me so happy！ But now I’m left here with no book 2 and I need it right now。 If you love the Curse Breaker series， you’re going to love Tycho’s story and the new characters we get to meet。 All the stars！！

There is just something I love about a Brigid Kemmerer book！ She tells such an intriguing story and it was no different with this book。 She took everything we knew and loved about the Cursebreaker series and made it into something new and exciting。 Not to mention my Tycho love just grew and grew with every page。 Also hello Jax！ Welcome to my heart！ Full review to come。

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Forging Silver into Stars Author: Brigid KemererThis was a spin off of the author’s previous series， Cursebreakers， and it takes place in the same universe。 Honestly， I have very little to say about this book， or， rather， there is little I can say without spoiling major elements of the book。 It was like the author laid a bunch of spider thin stands within our minds， then， in a blink， they pulled tight， forming a magnificent work of color and that feeling where you’re amazed but ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Forging Silver into Stars Author: Brigid KemererThis was a spin off of the author’s previous series， Cursebreakers， and it takes place in the same universe。 Honestly， I have very little to say about this book， or， rather， there is little I can say without spoiling major elements of the book。 It was like the author laid a bunch of spider thin stands within our minds， then， in a blink， they pulled tight， forming a magnificent work of color and that feeling where you’re amazed but also feel like and idiot because you didn’t see that coming。 Furthermore， it blurs the line between right and wrong incredibly well。 I can with full confidence say that， if the book focused solely on either Jax or Callyn’s POV， I would be wholeheartedly on their side。 Cons: it started off slow， but， looking back on it， the ending was well worth the wait， and I entirely understand the authors reasoning for it Pros: I can’t say much， but I would definitely recommend itthe characters were all pretty well roundedNone of the characters are unbearably annoyingIt furthers the universe without altering its intrinsic values… （those are dots of intrigue; just go with it） Would I read it again？ Yeah， I probably will :） Thanks to Bloomsbury YA for this ARC！ 。。。more

I am…so excited？？？ Brigid Kemmerer said that Rhen’s going to have a big arc in this book and I am absolutely ecstatic to see it。 Sorry， but Rhen is the best character in Cursebreakers。 I’m looking forward to seeing Tycho too， though！ Brigid says he’s bisexual and I’m beyond excited to see that play out。 I don’t think I can wait till May 🥺

How is it possible that Brigid’s books absolutely destroy me and still manage to leave me all warm and cozy？ This was a glorious addition to the Cursebreakers world。 The swoon！ The action！ The scheming！ FORGING is a rollercoaster and I wouldn’t have it any other way。

Cursebreakers will love this series！ Anyone who fell in love with Brigid Kemmerer's characters from the Cursebreakers series will absolutely fall in love with the very much grown-up Tycho and a host of new people。 This book feels a little more mature than the original series， and it has some romance I'm not comfortable handing to my middle schoolers， but it is thoroughly enjoyable and makes me long for the next book。 Cursebreakers will love this series！ Anyone who fell in love with Brigid Kemmerer's characters from the Cursebreakers series will absolutely fall in love with the very much grown-up Tycho and a host of new people。 This book feels a little more mature than the original series， and it has some romance I'm not comfortable handing to my middle schoolers， but it is thoroughly enjoyable and makes me long for the next book。 。。。more
