I really liked the bone shard magic and can’t wait to see where Stewart takes it.Ĭharacters: 2/2 – You’ve got a young women coming into her own, an adult man searching for his lost love, a familiar that is sassy and warm-hearted, and a lesbian couple that fight for a cause together. Writing: 2/2 – The language and fluidity was great, I was never annoyed by too much description or fluffy prose. Then you follow a few rebels as they try to fight against the constructs and save the people from the Emperor’s abuse. He has a familiar that is sort of like an otter and really cute. There is also Jovis, a smuggler that starts rescuing kids from the tithing festival so they don’t lose a bone shard. Lin is the Emperor’s daughter and that’s whose perspective we have. The siblings are competing to master the use of bone shards first and prove they are the worthy heir. The Emperor has a daughter and an adopted son and he’s trying to decide which of them to declare his heir. I make a small commission on purchases made from indigo.
The Emperor has a stock pile of shards, so yours may not be used until you’re already older but maybe not. The citizens do okay for a while missing a chunk of skull but when your shard is used, you slowly start to decay faster, like the use of the shard sucks the life out of you while in use.
The constructs are soldiers and spies for the Emperor and help him keep control over his territory. Then uses the bone shard to create magical constructs. The basics are that the Emperor takes a shard of bone from every citizen’s skull when they are a kid. The Bone Shard Daughter is the first book in a series and sets up the world really well. But I’ve loved hosting the June Fantasy Escape readathon and I’m obsessed with fantasy so you’ll just have to deal with it! But I promise I’ll be reading lot’s of other genres in July.īook: The Bo ne Shard Daughter (The Drowning Empire #1) Sorry if fantasy is not your genre and that’s all you’ve seen on this page this month. Good morning bookworms! I’m here with another fantasy review.
