It’s the Pahlavi way.Īnother thing to love is the sibling relationship between Fox and Tea! Aside from their thoughts and senses being linked, they both have this mindset to prioritize each other’s safety. We need someone in our heads to tell us whenever we’re being idiotic. The banters and sarcastic remarks are my favorite, as always! Enemies (sort of) to lovers trope? GIVE ME.

I allowed myself a good few minutes to just reread that part and scream internally. Just when I thought that magic and the story would be what I would love the most, here goes the romance! It was everything I needed. Every time they were in a dangerous situation, I cannot help but to cheer on them!

Aside from the Ashas, Fox, Tea and Kalen, I particularly enjoyed reading more about Khalad and Princess Inessa! Due to the unexpected turn of events, they were forced to journey throughout different kingdoms and despite their differences, they showed respect and immense trust with each other’s abilities. We were introduced to some new interesting characters on this second book. It teaches us that some situations are inevitable and that we should spend what little time we have in the company of the people that matter most. It’s not such a bad thing, to feel powerless sometimes. It was not hard to follow and all throughout I kept on guessing how things would unravel. I actually had a hard time putting this book down!Īside from the unique magic system, the politics and history behind the characters added the tension we needed, but everything was done seamlessly. Eventually, the timelines will merge and every chapter will keep you on edge. Just like the first book, this was told in two different timelines- the present time, from the Bard’s perspective as he listens to Tea’s stories, followed by Tea’s own account of these experiences. The conflict revolved around seeking for the heart forger, resolving a mysterious sickness hitting nobles and royalties, and unfolding dark intentions by some of the characters. As we continue to follow Tea’s journey on this second book of The Bone Witch Series, things get a lot more exciting and dangerous.
