About the book

'One of the best fantasy novels I've read in a long time...This book is truly special' Sarah J. Maas on The Bone Shard Daughter

***The Sunday Times bestselling series***

Magic. Revolution. Identity.

The Emperor is Dead. Long live the Emperor.

Lin Sukai finally sits on the throne she won at so much cost, but her struggles are only just beginning. Her people don't trust her. Her political alliances are weak. And in a far corner of the Empire a rebel army of constructs is gathering, its leader determined to take the throne by force.

Yet an even greater threat is on the horizon, for the Alanga - the powerful magicians of legend - have returned to the Empire. Lin may need their help to defeat the rebels and restore order.

But can she trust them?

The Bone Shard Emperor is the unmissable sequel to The Bone Shard Daughter, one of the biggest fantasy debuts of recent years - a captivating tale of magic, revolution and mystery, where a young woman's sense of identity will make or break an empire.

The second book in this trilogy was even a bit better then the first one and I loved every second of it. The whole world is created masterfully, the bone shard magic is really unique and I still have the feeling that we don’t know all of it yet. Lin and Jovis with their companions are an amazing quartet throughout the book and I really enjoyed their developing trust- with all the problems arising when both have more secrets then truths beautifully written. The turns in the plot were quite unexpected most of the time and I can’t wait to read the third book!

Nachdem niemand ist wer er/sie zu sein scheint, gibt es nicht nur eine neue Macht, sondern auch eine neue Bedrohung im Versinkenden Reich. Dagegen anzukämpfen ist schwieriger als gedacht. Ein sehr guter mittlerer Teil der Trilogie, der alle Personen in die richtige Position bringt. Jetzt bin ich gespannt wie es endet.
