Though not to first to write a story about people befriending animals, author Fonda Lee does put her own spin on it in her new no-magic / low-magic secondary world fantasy novella "Untethered Sky." To learn how, check out this exclusive interview. 📖🦅🦁

What are you reading this week? Since it’s a holiday this week, I’ll have more free time than I usually have so I plan on getting into the final book of the Green Bone Saga: Jade Legacy by Fonda Lee. Thanks @orbitbooks_us for the gifted read. I only started a little bit over the weekend since my mental health has been wobbly, but I’m loving it so far. It’s also a pretty lengthy book which makes sense since it is the finale and there’s probably a lot to cover, so I’m glad to have the week to take my time and savor it. Are you excited for this ending? I can’t wait to see what happens. . . . . . #bookstagram #currentlyreading #jadelegacy #fondalee #greenbonesaga #bookphoto #bookworm #bibliophile #bigbooks #fantasyreads #readersofig #readersgonnaread #homebody #readingnook #homesweethome #cozybookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CWllio5PFIr/?utm_medium=tumblr

★ How is the weather where you’re at? We’ve had several winter storms roll through the region over the past several days—bringing lots of snow to the mountains, and a mix of snow and rain down where we’re at. It’s been cold, but nice to get some wet weather and see snow all around us! We surely need it. Today I am featuring some recent goodies from Illumicrate! I am loving the Greek mythology inspired teacup and saucer sets they’ve been including in monthly boxes! This one features the Greek goddess Nemesis, artwork by @niallcgrant! (Swipe for a closer look!) And of course, the Illumicrate editions of @fonda.lee’s Green Bone Saga are just as beautiful as I expected them to be! They also have incredible stenciled edges, which you can see featured in one of @starlightbooktales’s recent photos! ★ HASHTAGS // #illumicrate #illumicrateunboxing #illumicratenov2021 #illumicratearchives #illumicrategbs #fondalee #jadebonesaga #jadewar #bookstack #bookbabe #readfantasy #bookstagram #bookworm #bookphotography #bibliophile #booklover #bookaddict #bookobsessed #readersofinstagram #bookish #booksbooksbooks #beautifulbooks #booktag #prettybooks https://www.instagram.com/libraryinthecountry/p/CXj3VW5P1bq/?utm_medium=tumblr

Book Review: Jade War, Book 2 of the Green Bones Saga by Fonda Lee.
Available in hardcover July 23, 2019
Its not uncommon in fantasy literature (at least in my experience) for trilogy series to suffer from “saggy middle syndrome”. That is, the second book in the series tends to slow down in both action and pacing in order to pull all the pieces together and set up for a dramatic third book. There isn’t really anything wrong with this approach, as it often leads to an amazing end of the series. That said, Fonda Lee’s Jade War, sequel to the award winning Jade City, is anything but slow.
Picking up where Jade City left off, Piller Kaul Hilo-jen and his Weatherman, Kaul Shae-jen are working to reestablish No Peak clan’s holdings within Janloon, and expand their power base on the island of Kekon and beyond. The world has learned the power of Jade and the Green Bones are no longer the only ones who can wield the gem’s awesome power.
Fonda weaves together an impressive amount of threads to create a rich and colourful tapistry of a story. A tale of family and honour, gangsters and power, following one’s heart and finding one’s place, Jade War will leave you satisfied in ways you never knew possible... and wanting more with every chapter.

So Jade City is one of the most talked about books in the few past years. This an excellent start of a complex and detailed fantasy series by incredible author Fonda Lee.
In Jade City we follow the Kaul family, head of the clan of No Peak. In the city of Kekon there are two main clans who rule the streets and control the flow of Jade.
Jade is a precious stone that makes the worthy incredible more powerful. The Green Bones are people who’ve trained for years to control this power, in incapable hands this power would lead to dead.
So when there’s this new drug, SN1 that makes the consumption of Jade able for everyone the No Peak clans goes into a frenzy, because the Mountain is behind this.
A war takes the streets of the city and ruthlessness would reign. I adored this books, it intimidated me a lot, and in the beginning it was kinda hard learning all the details of this world, but by the 2/3 of the novel I was enthralled.
The world building of this world it is intriguing and admirable. There’s no detailed left behind, such an exquisite tale and I can’t wait to continue with the series. If you’re a fantasy fan you’re gonna love this. (Also Anden it is a precious boy that needs all the protection).
I’m a fan.
Title: Jade City

Sword Master #4
Part one of Sword Master #4, The Artifacts, has Lin Lie learning the truth about the sword's origin. Part two, Master Class part 4, has Shang Chi and Lin Lie still dealing with Ares. In a vision, Lin Lie gets to witness the original user of the sword receive the weapon from their ancestors. Also he learns that there are two other weapons that are passed down through family lines. In Master Class, they must find a common ground with Ares against their shared enemy. I'm really enjoying this series so far. The only thing I don't like about the story itself is that it is a little short each issue. Since the issues are split between origin story and current story, it feels like we don't get enough of either. But what we do get is really good stuff. I'm not a huge fan of manga style art. The action sequences to me get a little messy. But the art is still really good.
Credits Writer: Shuizhu & Greg Pak & Fonda Lee Artist: Gunji & Ario Anindito Colors: Rachelle Rosenberg Letters: Travis Lanham Sword Master #4 "The Artifacts" are the weapons that the gods of each tribe bestow to their chiefs. Only the chief of that weapons tribe can wield the weapon. And those weapons were used to defeat the demon Chiyou. Then each weapon was used to guard a piece of Chiyou's body so that he could not join back together and reanimate. When Lin's father found the sword, he thought of it only as an artifact. But unknowingly released the skull of Chiyou. In "Master Class", Lie and Shang Chi must find a way to work with Ares and the dwarf Orgarb. They all have the same goal in mind, stopping the hordes of Chiyou. But Ares wants to use the sword to help him defeat them. But only Lin Lie can use the sword. So they strike a deal that Lie will help Ares defeat the demon, and Ares will help Lie find out what happened to his father. The question I still have is if Lin Lie's father knew about the sword and it's destiny. He specifically left it to Lin. So either the tribe of Fu Xi did not pass down the history and they were unaware of the destiny. Or they did and Lin's father never told him. I feel like a big twist may be coming regarding Lin's father. Support the Site The best thing we can ask you to do to support our site is to donate to a good cause.
