Grab me some popcorn, I’m in for the long haul
I have always been a fan of Young Adult Fantasy, mostly because of the fantasy elements and the echoes of culture from the 1800s like corsets, modesty, etc. I’m not a fan because of how it follows those rules but how it subverts them. Yes, maybe a book has a girl in a pretty dress. But is she an assassin? A spy? Makes her own rules? Then I’m totally in!
Same with the fantasy elements. I love magic and monarchies as much as the next person, but make it fresh and new.
This quick blurb is already reinventing the genre. The world building is immediate, immense, and encompassing the entire culture. I know this world better than most other books and it’s been 50 pages. There’s technology, fantasy, a mixture of multiple regions who each specialize and have wildly different cultures and traditions. And despite all of this construction, the plot STILL moves forward.
I’m incredibly excited to read this when it comes out, and to find out what is in store for Quadara and the individual countries it’s encompassing.
