A Day of Fallen Night: A Roots of Chaos Novel (The Roots of Chaos)

Product Information

Dumai holds engrossing relationships with all those around her, a devoted bond with her mother, a heart-warming friendship with Kanifa, a complex and entertaining relationship with the silver-tongued Nikeya. There are rumours that the Dreadmount has erupted, spewing forth wyrms and other destructive creatures. The New York Times bestselling, stunning, standalone prequel to The Priory of the Orange Tree , now in paperback. All very different but it was how their lives became entwined was the main appeal for this book even though their story, independent of each other, was unique, eventful, but also powerful.

I also highly enjoyed exploring more of the world of The Priory - we got to visit multiple new lands that we heard of but never saw in the fi Shannon has created a world rich in intricate mythology, beautifully realized and complex, and placed at its heart bold and vivid characters.As I'm less active on social media than I used to be, I just thought I'd answer a few questions in advance, to give you a clearer sense of A Day of Fallen Night. Honestly, I also really loved seeing more of the ichneumons as well - I'm a sucker for a good magical companion-animal, especially when they can speak. Too relieved for words, Tunuva held her by the waist, and Esbar walked her to the wall and kissed her. And, inevitably, this is the battle of Dumai's storyline; she is a kite meant to soar with the winds, yet she is tangled in the politics of a land she was not born to understand. No man is an island and perhaps you won't succeed for yourself but you might just tip the balance for someone else.

Across the sea in Seiiki, Dumai has spent her life as a godsinger on Mount Ipyeda, a frigid and isolated world away from the politics of the throne room she may be destined for. I won't claim it was flawless but it was a perfect book for me - the sapphic fantasy novel I'd always wanted. I absolutely loved how their stories played out, and especially how a 50+ year old woman navigated personal life and conflicts with her fierce love and loyalty.

Oh, and I love you, and you must never leave the city, and your father and I are going on a ship because we don't have Disney in our world and never watched Frozen.

Also, it reads a bit like sitting over Samantha Shannon’s shoulder and watching her play tall in Crusader Kings 3 for hours on end. Secondly: the fact that the Berethnet queens are all over six feet tall is my favourite tidbit from this book.The multiple storylines that end up intertwined together is magic and so artfully done that by the author - amazing. Therefore no matter how hopeless a situation appears, it is always worth fighting on in whatever way you can. And Dumai, raised in a secluded mountaintop temple, is thrown into a dangerous world of courtly intrigue when she learns she’s the firstborn daughter of Jorodu, Emperor of Seiiki. The Bone Season, the first in a seven-book series, was a New York Times bestseller and the inaugural Today Book Club selection.
