About this deal

The follow-up to the instant #1 New York Times bestselling Realm Breaker features breathless action, deadly twists, and gripping magic. Perfect for fans of THE CRUEL PRINCE, SIX OF CROWS and THE HUNGER GAMES. She tasted blood too. The blood of Gallish soldiers, the blood of sea serpents from another realm. And, of course, her own blood. So much blood Corayne felt she might drown in it.

Like all good zombie content, Blade Breaker leans in to the tragedy of the undead. It is always effective to remind readers that even hypothetical undead would be made up of actual former human beings. Blade Breaker’s ending is particularly heartbreaking. The set-up for the next entry in this series will be rooted in tragedy, continuing the themes that have already been introduced. Blessed Are the Burned Very little romance, but a newly married couple speaks of their marital duties and the groom pretends to deflower his wife by mussing her hair, wrinkling the sheets and even spilling some blood on the marital bed. There are a couple of kisses as well as references to a man's legendary dalliances and how they resulted in a secret daughter. Two teens flirt, hold hands, and exchange meaningful, lingering looks but never kiss or otherwise admit their feelings for each other. Two adult characters' perspectives make it clear they find the other attractive, but there's no spoken declaration of those feelings. Daichi's Bit-Beast Strata Dragoon (Yellow dragon of earth, Strata Dragoon) is the Beyblade version of the occasional fifth sacred beast in the myths of the Four Sacred Beasts, represented by the original four members of the Bladebreakers.Families can talk about the violence in Realm Breaker. Why is it necessary to the story? Does realistic violence disturb you more than fantasy violence, or is it the same? Since Victoria Aveyard launched the instant #1 New York Times bestselling Realm Breaker, the series has taken readers by storm. Now the sequel is here to continue this epic fantasy series. A divided realm must rally, an unstoppable enemy must be defeated, and the fate of the world rests on a blade’s edge.

The Bladebreakers's bit-beasts wield the Chinese elements: Wood, Metal (i.e. Gold), Fire, Earth, Water. Kenny and Hilary are based on Rokumaru and Kurumi from Next Generation Beigoma Battle: Beyblade who fulfilled similar roles to Tyson as they do in the anime. Rokumaru is Tyson's "coach" and Kurumi is a girl who just got interested in Beyblade. Did you know you can flag iffy content? Adjust limits for Violence & Scariness in your kid's entertainment guide.

Ridha tasted bitterness on her own tongue. The light of different stars, she thought, remembering her mother and how she used to glare at the sky, as if she could will the stars of Glorian to replace the stars of the Ward.

Queen Erida and her consort, Taristan, continue their march through Allward, crumbling castles and conquering kingdoms with an unstoppable army and unthinkable forces of darkness. Not only is it bad enough that Blade Breaker throws in these types of bizarre, nonsensical metaphors that don’t even fit with each other, but on top of this, the novel adds further statements that read as incredibly melodramatic. Characters have no issue literally announcing “into the jaws of death we go” or that their companions “remained silent, bent but not broken, resolute before their doom.” Frankly, people do not talk in such a histrionic manner, especially when they’re in life-threatening situations! These types of expressions and declarations are way too over-the-top and make the novel feel more like a parody of the genre, because how could a serious novel ceaselessly state this kind of stuff? Near the end of the novel, I was wholly nonplussed by the villain’s speech, as he went from ranting about how awful humanity is to complimenting the heroine —all in one little tirade: A fantasy fan's dream."��Roseanne A. Brown, New York Times bestselling author of A Song of Wraiths and RuinCharacters are killed and severely injured in violent encounters and battles. Monstrous sea creatures eat people sailing near them. An army of zombie-like creatures kills many people. A small group of warriors kills soldiers trying to imprison/execute them (mostly with swords and knives). A man slices himself to bleed on a bed so it looks like he consummated his marriage.

But while they successfully sealed the Spindle Taristan opened, they can’t rest easy yet. With his army marching across Allward, opening more portals into terrible alternate worlds as he goes, Corayne has no choice but to rally her own army and become the hero she’s destined to be.

This…sometimes works? Honestly, I’d be happy continuing to thrive in the chaos of this misadventure without the romance. I also wouldn’t be totally opposed to exploring the romantic potential in these characters if it’s done right. Twice Queen, Rising Empress Middle books are difficult things. They have to keep an established story moving at a brisk pace while giving readers just enough tantalizing new plot or character developments to keep them interested without answering all their questions or spoiling the series ending. After all, middle books are technically the part of the series that doesn’t really have a definitive beginning or end. (And in the world of fantasy, that means they almost always end in a cliffhanger.) It’s a challenging balance to strike and novels that are “in the middle of things” in this way can often be unfairly criticized for external narrative factors that aren’t entirely within the scope of the stories they’re telling
