"Tara’d run out into the rain, age ten, beneath a tornado-dark sky. She heard whispers on the wind and singing in the stars, and talked back, sang up, calling to the voices until the storm came, all spinning noise and fire, a solstice festival in the sky."

OK I gave in and downloaded the app so we are BACK and will be sharing all the Craft Sequence content we can.
Still getting back to grips with tumblr so forgive me if anything goes wonky.

Servant of the Underworld - Aliette de Bodard This is an unusual trilogy for me. I read a lot of fantasy, but it's either ye plain olde run-of-the-mill fantasy or worlds based on Celts or Ancient Greeks. Aliette de Bodard's Obsidian and Blood trilogy is based on Aztec, which I almost never read about. Funnily enough, the only other books with a small Mesoamerican flavour I've read are another fantasy series, the Craft Sequence by Max Gladstone (😘 the King in Red). Aliette de Bodard is more historical which prompted me to scour the Wikipedia page of Mexico City (and other related pages: I discovered Maya blue amongst other stuff). A priestress disappeared and the High Priest for the Dead investigates, urged by the fact his brother is the prime suspect. Soon, Acatl finds out that things are a whole lot more complex that he thought. The world building is excellent and very unsettling: someone is pale like a fawn, you can't think in red and black, they eat newts (all the time! Where can I try a fried newt in Paris and see if I can pop it whole in my mouth?). Magic is entirely linked to the gods, animal and human sacrifices abound. Gods are jealous, malicious, with hudden agendas. I enjoyed this trilogy (yes, I read the whole trilogy). Characters are complex and multi-layered, I didn't feel I was reading standard fantasy clichés and of course, I loved all the world building #ServantoftheUnderworld #ObsidianandBlook #AliettedeBodard #bookstagram #instabook #bookstagrammer #novel #fantasy #aztec #Mesoamerica #Mexico #Tenochtitlan #MaxGladstone #Craftsequence #Twoserpentsrise #KinginRed #instalivre #novel #book #books
