Summary

Nora Roberts, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the epic Year One returns with Of Blood and Bone, a new tale of terror and magic in a brand new world.

They look like an everyday family living an ordinary life. But beyond the edges of this peaceful farm, unimaginable forces of light and dark have been unleashed.

Fallon Swift, approaching her thirteenth birthday, barely knows the world that existed before - the city where her parents lived, now in ruins and reclaimed by nature since the Doom sickened and killed billions. Traveling anywhere is a danger, as vicious gangs of Raiders and fanatics called Purity Warriors search for their next victim. Those like Fallon, in possession of gifts, are hunted - and the time is coming when her true nature, her identity as The One, can no longer be hidden.

In a mysterious shelter in the forest, her training is about to begin under the guidance of Mallick, whose skills have been honed over centuries. She will learn the old ways of healing; study and spar; encounter faeries and elves and shifters; and find powers within herself she never imagined. And when the time is right, she will take up the sword, and fight. For until she grows into the woman she was born to be, the world outside will never be whole again.

Book 2 of a trilogy...

However, it was well done. Eagerly anticipated, and thoroughly enjoyed it but you know that there’s more to come. Well observed interactions between the characters and great narration

great tale

easy listening, great story and brilliant narrator. She has a soothing voice which is easy listening. a narrator can ruin the greatest story but Julie Whelan enhances it

Enjoyable, but

That is a terrible Welsh accent. I couldn’t work out which part of the country he was supposed to be from. Perhaps somewhere in middle of the Irish Sea or the Scottish borders? Certainly not mainland Wales! The narration was good apart from that.

I didn't much like the first volume

Because I found it frightening and rather too gory for my taste but I really don't regret having my curiosity getting the better of me and getting the second tome. I loved it! Can't wait for tome 3 to be released!
