Profoundly thought provoking, Blood Over Bright Haven completely exceeded all of my expectations.

This fantasy stand-alone is action packed with beautifully written character arcs, political discourse, feminine rage, alchemy, and strong written prose. All the details come together between these covers to make one hell of a novel. 

ML Wang is one to keep an eye on for fantasy lovers. I’m very much looking forward to Sword of Kaigen after falling in love with her writing through this one. This book is a prime example of when we say, “Reading IS political.” It will challenge you to reevaluate things you’ve believed true in society since school ages, constantly encouraging your mind to step out of its box. 

I highly recommend this one to fantasy lovers who enjoyed similar reads like Poppy War Trilogy and The Green Bone Saga.
