Now I don’t support the glorification of murder, but I do support the notion of book characters that should be dead getting on with dying already. We start off with an opening similar to the last book, a theft. This is that excellent mix of a book that bridges the start of what is going to be an excellent trilogy, that also manages to be a totally different book and is both character and plot focused. I honestly can’t comprehend what might be coming in the third book. So safe to say this is every bit as brilliant as the first book.
Jade, Kekon’s most prized resource, could make them rich – or give them the edge they’d need to topple their rivals.įaced with threats on all sides, the Kaul family is forced to form new and dangerous alliances, confront enemies in the darkest streets and the tallest office towers, and put honor aside in order to do whatever it takes to ensure their own survival – and that of all the Green Bones of Kekon. Powerful foreign governments and mercenary criminal kingpins alike turn their eyes on the island nation. On the island of Kekon, the Kaul family is locked in a violent feud for control of the capital city and the supply of magical jade that endows trained Green Bone warriors with supernatural powers they alone have possessed for hundreds of years.īeyond Kekon’s borders, war is brewing.
So why not continue my track record of letting this series break my heart? I am not surprised however considering the first book, Jade City, made it to my favourite books of 2021. I did not finish this book, it finished me.
I’ve said it on TikTok, Instagram and just about everywhere else. Possible mild spoilers for Jade City as well ***CW’s: Violence, death, abortion, mentions of sexual assault, racism, ableism, torture, homophobia, gun violence and war*** “I have a lot of regrets in life, but those oaths aren’t one of them.” “The clan is my blood and the Pillar is its master,” she whispered.
