'One of the best fantasy novels I've read in a long time...This book is truly special' Sarah J. Maas Magic. Revolution.

Identity. The Emperor's reign has lasted for decades, his mastery of bone shard magic powering the animal-like constructs that maintain law and order. But now his rule is failing, and revolution is sweeping across the Empire's many islands.

Lin is the Emperor's daughter and she spends her days trapped in a palace of locked doors and dark secrets. When her father refuses to recognise her as heir to the throne, she vows to prove her worth by mastering the forbidden art of bone shard magic. Yet such power carries a great cost, and when the revolution reaches the gates of the palace, Lin must decide how far she is willing to go to claim her birthright - and save her people.

The Bone Shard Daughter is an unmissable fantasy debut - a captivating tale of magic, revolution and mystery, where a young woman's sense of identity will make or break an empire. 'A bold, ambitious debut' M. R.

Hobeanu Irina a dat nota:

This review is long overdue! I read this stunning piece of fantasy back in December and have been thinking about it since then. Apart from the cover design (which is amazing!) the story is truly a piece of art and I loved every piece of it: the world, the magic system, the characters which are all so well written. And don’t get me started on the plot😅. The lead female character develops so smoothly and the supporting characters just bring it all together. Moreover, we have multiple perspectives (and secondary storylines) which make the overall book feel like a full blown saga. The rhythm is definitely fast, however mystery is a key component here. If you’re going to give it a chance (which I highly recommend) you’re in for a BIG surprise towards the end. I love the author’s well balanced writing style - always giving us glimpses into the whole plan, but never revealing everything at once, so you just keep reading to put all the clues together.

The Bone Shard Daughter is one of the best fantasy novels I've read in a long time. With stunningly intricate world-building that leaps off the page and characters who are so vibrant that you wish they were real, it grabs you by the heart and the throat from the first pages and doesn't let go until long after it's over. This book is truly special

There is a fantastic cast of characters, a compelling plot, a unique magic system and a vividly written world. I cannot wait to see what is going to happen next... This will definitely be on my favourite books of 2020 list and will probably be my favourite fantasy debut of the year
THE BONE SHARD DAUGHTER is full of atmospheric delights: a spooky palace full of locked doors and awful secrets! Wonderful characters struggling with hard choices! Intriguing worldbuilding! An endearing yet mysterious animal companion! Profoundly creepy bone shard magic! This is a fantastic read well worth your time. I can't wait for the sequel!
Gripping . . . one of 2020's strongest debuts
The Bone Shard Daughter is truly something special. Not only does it deftly weave what initially seems like five separate stories together into something powerful and thrilling, the novel contains precisely the sort of compelling characters and rich worldbuilding that make this genre so much fun to read in the first place

Notă biografică

Andrea Stewart is the daughter of immigrants, and was raised in a number of places across the United States. Her parents always emphasized science and education, so she spent her childhood immersed in Star Trek and odd-smelling library books.

When her (admittedly ambitious) dreams of becoming a dragon slayer didn't pan out, she instead turned to writing books. She now lives in sunny California, and in addition to writing, can be found herding cats, looking at birds, and falling down research rabbit holes.
