This week I can’t wait for:
Jade Fire Gold by June CL Tan
Expected publication: 12 October 2021
Publisher: HarperTeen
From Goodreads:
Girls of Paper and Fire meets The Tiger at Midnight in June CL Tan’s stunning debut, inspired by Chinese mythology, with rich magic and an epic slow-burn romance.
In an empire on the brink of war . . .
Ahn is no one, with no past and no family.
Altan is a lost heir, his future stolen away as a child.
When they meet, Altan sees in Ahn a path to reclaiming the throne. Ahn sees a way to finally unlock her past and understand her arcane magical abilities.
But they may have to pay a far deadlier price than either could have imagined.
Ferocious action, shadowy intrigue, and a captivating romance collide in June CL Tan’s debut, a stunning homage to the Xianxia novel with a tender, beating heart, perfect for fans of The Bone Witch and We Hunt the Flame
Why I Can’t Wait for this book:
I mean… this blurb really doesn’t give anything away, but I’m, as always, drawn to a girl with magical powers, and the cover is basically telling me a whole story I really want to get into.
