Reviews

Deft, dark and daring, Kesia Lupo seamlessly entwines the fates of two young women bound by magic to a dying city * Melinda Salisbury on WE ARE BLOOD AND THUNDER *
A stormer of a story! * Kiran Millwood Hargrave on WE ARE BLOOD AND THUNDER *
A gorgeously written fantasy, with a haunting, intricate world * Mary Watson on WE ARE BLOOD AND THUNDER *
Enchanting. This isnt just an excellent book it is unusual, unique and universally appealing * Natasha Pulley on WE ARE BLOOD AND THUNDER *
The sequel to We are Blood and Thunder kicks the worldbuilding and the themes up a gear resulting in an even pacier more absorbing second book. Livio and Beatrice are about to find out that destiny is not going to fall out as they expected. This was a great book about choices and consequences that was even better than the first one * NetGalley Reviewer *
This book brings into question the true nature of destiny and its implications. There is a creative use of magic and fantasy, which adds a unique dimension. The story of both protagonists intertwines beautifully at the end of the story * Teen Titles Magazine *
