Despite descending from a long line of powerful sorcerers, Vi Solaris lacked all magic. That is, until the day she manifested a powerful sorcery unlike any other.

Story
This box set includes all three books in the Golden Guard trilogy. A coastal summer is turned upside down by a violent murder, and a quest for lost pirate treasure turns into a hunt for the killer. A mercinary lives by her own rules, and a prince wants to see her under his command. Freeing her from the shadows of her past has a high price, but will he pay it? In the perilous jungles of the North, luck is something in short supply as two strangers set off on a dangerous mission that may just bring them together if it doesn't kill them first.

Publisher's Summary
A desperate princess, a magical traveler, and a watch that binds them together with the fate of a dying world.
Vi Solaris is the heir to an Empire she’s barely seen. Her parents sacrificed a life with her to quell a rebellion and secure peace with a political alliance. Now, three years past when her wardship should’ve ended, Vi will do anything to be reunited with her family.
The Empire is faltering beneath the burden of political infighting and a deadly plague. Yet, Vi can’t help but wonder if her inability to control her magic is the true reason her parents haven’t brought her home. Suspicion becomes reality when she unleashes powers she’s not supposed to have.
Powers that might well cost her the throne.
As Vi fights to get her magic under control, a mysterious stranger appears from across the world. He holds the keys to unlocking her full potential, but the knowledge has an unspeakable price - some truths, once seen, cannot be ignored.
All eyes are on her, and Vi must make the hardest choice of her life: Play by the rules and claim her throne. Or, break them and save the world.
If you enjoy epic fantasy stories with sorcery, slow-burn romance, and expansive worlds to adventure in, then you’ll love the Vortex Chronicles.

A Great Start to a New Air Awakens Series!
Reading Vortex Visions was like coming home. I didn't realize how much I missed the Air Awakens world until I started reading this. After taking a bit of a break from Kova's work after reading through the Loom Saga, I am coming back and reading through ALL of the stuff I missed. That means Vortex Chronicles, Married to Magic, A Trial of Sorcerers, and the Wish Quartet.
Honestly, part of me put this off because I was like "what if the revisit to the world isn't that great" and I was concerned that reopening a "closed" story would cause me to not love the first series as much. But that's definitely not the case. So if you're scared about that like I was, don't fear!
I thought it was a nice tie into the old and the new by having characters like Jax be present from the beginning, but it was definitely a bit of a slow start over all. The plot itself was really interesting and I liked seeing the new magic system, tying in some pieces from Air Awakens that went under discovered, and meeting new characters (like Jayme, but I mighttt be biased).
I liked Vi and felt her internal struggle, but there were some times that I felt she was making bad choices - ones that didn't seem to really make sense except to move the plot forward. But she's a strong choice for a lead character here.
I would have liked a bit more time spent on the ending because some of the middle felt like "filler" but knowing how Elise writes, I'm sure this will all come back around.
In terms of the audio, I really liked the narrator and thought it was well-read and well-paced. I liked hearing the names being read aloud because I know some of them would have tripped me up. It was also nice to hear the "accents" of people that I have read about before and learning how the different areas spoke.
Overall, I definitely recommend if you've read Air Awakens or want to get started in a new and intriguing fantasy world!

Great story, but…
I love that the story can go on and to see the legacy of the characters from Air Awakens continue in their own right. However, it is disappointing and more than a little distracting that the continuing of the world established by the last voice actor (accents for the different regions and for reoccurring characters) as not been continued. It was a jarring experience coming from the previous series to this one.
All that being said, the performance is not bad—if you can get over or learn to ignore the disconnect—and the story just makes up for it. I will continue to listen on.
