Blood Over Bright Haven

Reviews

A fantastic page-turner – clever, emotional, and thematically rich. I was completely engaged the whole way through. Highly recommended! A storytelling masterclass. Deeper themes run through this energetic tale of dark academia and feats of imagination abound. Powerful, passionate, and painful, this book is like a file baked into a birthday cake: a surprise when you first bite down on it, but also a tool that can set you free. Innovative and brilliantly written, this is a glorious jewel added to the crown of dark academia. A scathing but truthful look at the world we live in… A stunningly powerful story. With one of the most intricate and fascinating magic systems I have ever read, Blood Over Bright Haven masterfully draws you into the brutal web of power, corruption, and complicity at the heart of its society. This book is a merciless reckoning that leaves you reeling long after the last page is turned. Breathtaking in its scope, audacity, and the depth of its storytelling. The best book – bar none – I've read all year. Blood Over Bright Haven is a storytelling masterclass. Deeper themes run through this energetic tale of dark academia and feats of imagination abound. Blood Over Bright Haven is, well, bloody brilliant. (Pun intended.) I wish I could craft a character half so well as M.L. Wang, that I could set a scene with half so rich an atmosphere. Blood Over Bright Haven is the kind of book that knocks you down, kicks you repeatedly, and then makes you thank it for doing so. I can't recommend it highly enough. This powerful and engaging novel… bears comparison to groundbreaking works by Ursula K Le Guin. […] For me, the best fantasy novel of the year. Expand reviews
