Narration During Books Court of Fives (Court of Fives #1)

On the Fives court, everyone is equal.

And everyone is dangerous.

Jessamy’s life is a balance between acting like an upper-class Patron and dreaming of the freedom of the Commoners. But away from her family, she can be whomever she wants when she sneaks out to train for the Fives, an intricate, multilevel athletic competition that offers a chance for glory to the kingdom’s best competitors.

Then Jes meets Kalliarkos, and an improbable friendship between the two Fives competitors—one of mixed race and the other a Patron boy—causes heads to turn. When Kal’s powerful, scheming uncle tears Jes’s family apart, she’ll have to test her new friend’s loyalty and risk the vengeance of a royal clan to save her mother and sisters from certain death.

In this imaginative escape into an enthralling new world, World Fantasy Award finalist Kate Elliott’s first young adult novel weaves an epic story of a girl struggling to do what she loves in a society suffocated by rules of class and privilege.

Comment On Of Books Court of Fives (Court of Fives #1)

4.5 stars for this first book in a YA fantasy series. Full review, first posted on www.FantasyLiterature.com:Kate Elliott vaults into the YA fantasy game field with Court of Fives, which the author aptly describes as Little Women meets American Ninja Warrior in a setting inspired by Greco-Roman Egypt. This three-pronged description calls out three of the most noteworthy aspects of Court of Fives: the subtle references to Louisa May Alcotts Little Women, accentuating the importance of family

I got an arc at SDCC last year and had heard a lot of great things, so I was excited to get to it. It took me a while to get invested. I set it down for days at a time and probably could have walked away completely without getting to the end within a problem. Jes and Kal are interesting enough characters and I liked him more than her. She's wildly dramatic, but she's smart and strong and has a definite sense between right and wrong. I'm guessing it was those qualities that kept me reading. There

Re-read (12/05/2018): Ah! This book is just as great as when I first read it a long time ago. The Fives are still so fun and remain my favorite parts of the book. I love the family bonds in here and the connection Jessamy has with her sisters. I think some parts might have been a bit different or elaborated on - like the ending scene or some of the scenes with Kalliarkos - but I like what was done.Now I'm off to complete the rest of the series!Early Pre-Release Review.I was fortunate enough to

Hmm. Well, I can see that people are quite divided on this. I devoured it in no time and really enjoyed it, so, um, hmm.

This is a book I picked up in order to try out Kate Elliott and Renay recommended this one to me. It's a great start point with Elliott's work, and it's encouraged me to try out more of her books for sure!The story inside feels a little but like the Hunger Games at times becuase the world we follow revolves largely around two types of people, Patrons (rich, wealthy etc.) and Commoners (poor, mistreated etc.) who are constantly at odds, but all fascinated by the Fives games. We follow a family

2.5-3 starsI am torn on this one, guys! There were some really great moments plus a heroine and romance I liked, but for a good portion of the book I was just bored. I found myself either skimming or lost in thought and not remembering what I had just read. That's never a good sign for me. One thing you should know up front is that Court of Fives is historical fantasy, very reminiscent of Ancient Greece with gods and goddesses, fallen empires and scheming kings and queens, religious undertones
