I got an eGalley from Edelweiss to review (thanks to HarperTeen for the copy!) This is one of those annoying books that I tried and tried to read. This is the first book in The Kingdom of Souls trilogy. Inspired by tales of folk magic in her own community, Rena Barron spins a darkly magical tale perfect for fans of Three Dark Crowns or Shadow and Bone, about a girl caught between gods, monsters, and her own mother's schemes. And if he rises, his hunger for souls will bring the world to its knees… unless Arrah pays the price for the magic to stop him. The long-imprisoned Demon King is stirring. Until the Kingdom's children begin to disappear, and Arrah is desperate to find the culprit. There's only one thing Arrah hasn't tried, a deadly last resort: trading years of her own life for scraps of magic. But each year she fails to call forth her ancestral powers, while her ambitious mother watches with growing disapproval. The lush world building of Children of Blood and Bone meets the epic scale of Strange the Dreamer in this captivating epic YA fantasy debut.īorn into a family of powerful witchdoctors, Arrah yearns for magic of her own. Magic has a price-if you're willing to pay.

After all, a shadow that was gone in the night reappears in the morning, and so it seems Black London has risen again-and so to keep magic's balance, another London must fall.Ī brilliant beginning built my expectation high. As Red London finalizes preparations for the Element Games - an extravagant international competition of magic, meant to entertain and keep healthy the ties between neighboring countries - a certain pirate ship draws closer, carrying old friends back into port.īut while Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. Restless, and having given up smuggling, Kell is visited by dreams of ominous magical events, waking only to think of Lila, who disappeared from the docks like she always meant to do. In many ways, things have almost returned to normal, though Rhy is more sober, and Kell is now plagued by his guilt. Four months since Rhy was wounded and the Dane twins fell, and the stone was cast with Holland's dying body through the rift, and into Black London. Four months since his path crossed with Delilah Bard. Four months have passed since the shadow stone fell into Kell's possession. The Bon Temps police suspect Sookie's brother Jason and arrest him because he has been romantically linked to two of the victims. In the meantime, there are several murders in Bon Temps, and people believe that Bill is behind the murders because many of the bodies have fang marks. Bill returns the favor the next day when the Rattrays attack Sookie. In his first visit, Sookie saves him from the Rattrays, who are vampire drainers. Amazingly, vampires' minds are 'silent' to Sookie, which is a different but amazing discovery for Sookie. Sookie falls in love with a vampire, a Civil War veteran named Bill Compton. Sookie lives with her grandmother Adele Stackhouse and has an older brother Jason. True Blood makes it possible for vampires to live in the open without the need to hunt humans for a living. Sookie Stackhouse is a telepath who lives in a world where vampires have come out to the public and become legal citizens since the Japanese developed a synthetic blood. In Dead Until Dark, Sookie begins a romantic entanglement with her vampire neighbor and is faced with a series of murders in town. In this first installment, the author introduces the character of Sookie Stackhouse, a young telepathic waitress from the fictional town of Bon Temps, Louisiana, and her world, an alternate history where vampires, shapeshifters and other supernatural beings coexist with humans. |
