This week, what's really got my pages in a twist is...
(The Elementae #1)
Publication
Date: January 30, 2018
Hardcover, 448 pages, Bloomsbury
Genres:
YA, Fantasy
Shalia is a proud daughter of the
desert, but after years of devastating war with the adjoining kingdom, her
people are desperate for peace. Willing to trade her freedom to ensure the
safety of her family, Shalia becomes Queen of the Bonelands.
But she soon learns that her
husband, Calix, is motivated only by his desire to exterminate the
Elementae—mystical people who can control earth, wind, air, and fire. Even more
unsettling are Shalia’s feelings for her husband’s brother, which unleash a power
over the earth she never knew she possessed—a power that could get her killed.
As rumors of a rebellion against Calix spread, Shalia must choose between the
last chance for peace and her own future as an Elementae.
This intense, richly drawn
high-fantasy by the author of Scarlet will hold readers spellbound.
My Thoughts
I’m curious about this one. I really enjoyed Gaughen’s
Scarlet series about Robin Hood, so hopefully, this one is just as good, if not
better. I’m a little curious to see how the husband/brother-in-law love
triangle will be set up. While I tend to hate love triangles, this one is weird
enough for a YA series to have me intrigued.
