The Bone Witch Review Spoiler Free

The Bone Witch (The Bone Witch, #1)

The Bone Witch
by Rin Chupeco

Release Date: March 7th, 2017

Synopsis:


In the captivating start to a new, darkly lyrical fantasy series for readers of Leigh Bardugo and Sabaa Tahir, Tea can raise the dead, but resurrection comes at a price...

Let me be clear: I never intended to raise my brother from his grave, though he may claim otherwise. If there's anything I've learned from him in the years since, it's that the dead hide truths as well as the living.

When Tea accidentally resurrects her brother from the dead, she learns she is different from the other witches in her family. Her gift for necromancy means that she's a bone witch, a title that makes her feared and ostracized by her community. But Tea finds solace and guidance with an older, wiser bone witch, who takes Tea and her brother to another land for training.

In her new home, Tea puts all her energy into becoming an asha-one who can wield elemental magic. But dark forces are approaching quickly, and in the face of danger, Tea will have to overcome her obstacles...and make a powerful choice.


Memoirs of a Geisha meets The Name of the Wind in this brilliant new fantasy series by Rin Chupeco!

My Thoughts:

I gave this book 4 stars. It was a bit slow in the beginning, for me at least, but it led me into the story and I can see that it is going to bet to the really good stuff in later books. Also, I just have to mention that the cover is absolutely gorgeous and I will be getting a hard copy of this as soon as I can.

The world was just so unique. I fell in love with the magic system and the land, but especially the magic. It was just so intriguing I couldn't get enough of it.

One of my favourite aspects was the heart glass. I want a heart glass. That would just be so cool!
I always find necromancy an interesting topic in a book. No matter what happens, some dead people are coming back to life, so it should be interesting.

It wasn't the best book ever, but it was really a good start to the story.

Overall, I think the author did a great job and I can't wait to see where she goes with the series. Consider me intrigued.
