Engrossing start to the series I really haven’t been this drawn into a fantasy world for a long time. When I started reading Children of Bone and Blood, I found it almost impossible to put down. I really got invested in the setting – a fantasy West Africa where magic has disappeared, the children of former maji are treated as second class citizens and three teenagers are tasked with a mission from the Gods to bring back magic. The African setting gave the novel a very different feel from other young adult fantasies that I’ve…
Incredible, deeply involving and magical novel. AMAZING.Why did it have to end there?! This is serious Book Hangover material. BE WARNED. Sometimes I think publishing a series one book at a time should be outlawed.What a read. What a cast! What a great story.

Most compelling book I’ve read in years Children of Blood and Bone is the first book of a planned series: Legacy of Orïsha.
