Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event originally created and hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we are all eagerly anticipating. Jill has been MIA since August of 2016. Despite this, the meme lives on….Hope you come back Jill! Until then I will be joining Tressa at Wishful Endings and her meme Can’t-Wait Wednesday.
Happy Wednesday y’all! Another 2020 fantasy for today 😀 I’m eagerly waiting on Bone Crier’s Moon by Kathryn Purdie. First that cover 😍 Then the title and finally that blurb 😱 I love a good fantasy, and this one looks like not only will it be an exciting thrill to read, but will also be a little haunting. Ferrying the spirits of the dead? Sacrificing your one true love to do so? Revenge….romance….and a lot of twists and turns await (if I had to guess). I cannot wait!
Bone Crier's Moon by Kathryn PurdieSeries: Bone Grace #1
Published by HarperCollins, Katherine Tegen Books on 2020-03-10
Length: 480 pages
Bone Criers have a sacred duty. They alone can keep the dead from preying on the living. But their power to ferry the spirits of the dead into goddess Elara’s Night Heavens or Tyrus’s Underworld comes from sacrifice. The gods demand a promise of dedication. And that promise comes at the cost of the Bone Criers’ one true love.
Ailesse has been prepared since birth to become the matriarch of the Bone Criers, a mysterious famille of women who use strengths drawn from animal bones to ferry dead souls. But first she must complete her rite of passage and kill the boy she’s also destined to love.
Bastien’s father was slain by a Bone Crier and he’s been seeking revenge ever since. Yet when he finally captures one, his vengeance will have to wait. Ailesse’s ritual has begun and now their fates are entwined—in life and in death.
Sabine has never had the stomach for the Bone Criers’ work. But when her best friend Ailesse is taken captive, Sabine will do whatever it takes to save her, even if it means defying their traditions—and their matriarch—to break the bond between Ailesse and Bastien. Before they all die.
