Where are the ACOTAR, Fourth Wing, and When the Moon Hatched girlies?
If you LOVE slow burn romantasy stories then you will absolutely love Awakening of the Starbone.
If you need a new shadow daddy (Sølas, the MMC) to thirst over this story has one and he is damn hot. He totally falls first, which we love. He’s also bonded to a dragon *drool*
Savaé, the FMC, is quite the bad ass. She can kill anyone and any beast. She’s had a rough life and doesn’t know her full potential or how to not be a lone wolf. Obviously, in the book she’s working through her shit and learning to love and rely on others.
Sully is a side character that you will come to love. He becomes a strong male figure for Savaé and trains her to be the bad ass warrior she is. You will fall in love with him.
There is a war college that our FMC and MMC both attend, however, in order to attend you must try out in small trials through out the lands. of course both pass. Duh!
There are also units that students in this war college are sorted into. Of course, Savaé is put in the position she hoped for because she’s badass so of course she would be. This satiates your longing for the Fourth Wing days.
In these units each person as a role and Savaé happens to be part of the unit that gets to be bonded to a flying beast. There are several types of beasts one can bond other than dragons. You’ll have to read the story to see what she bonds *wink*
There are bad forces in this world, which is why they have this war college. They’re training them to fight this darkness that is taking over the lands.
This not a HEA story, but rather a rip your heart out cliff hanger. In fact, your heart will be ripped out several times in this story. There is also a female villian and I am not sure what to think of her. I think I hate her.
Savaé and Sølas are fated mates, but there’s something interesting about it that drives the story. Hence, romantasy.
The story is also beautifully written. This is a high romantasy story and the descriptions of all the creatures, fae, continent, war, college and anything else is so rich in color and descriptive language you will feel like you are part of their unit and world.
You will be devistated and in love reading this story. You will be craving book 2. Go pre-order now so you can read it December 8th when it comes out
