8 posts | 9 read | 13 to read
Chester has taken to the road, traveling from village to village desperately searching for his father, who has disappeared. One night while fiddling to earn a few coins, he accidentally connects to the Songthe music that fuels every aspect of the world, and that its illegal for him to interact with. Hes caught and sentenced to death for his crime. Only a licensed Songshaper can bend music to his will. But someone in the crowda member of the infamous Nightfall Gangstages a daring rescue and whisks Chester into the Hush, a shadowy nightmare mirror-world where Music can be deadly and Echoes can kill. Susanna, the Captain of the Nightfall Gang has been watching Chester. She needs him to pull off an elaborate plan that will take down the governing body that keeps her an outlaw and made her the fragment she is. Susanna needs him to exact her revenge, even if he dies doing it. Combining complex stakes, shifting loyalties, nods to fairy tales, and a Western feel, The Hush is a lush and exhilarating fantasy perfect for fans of Catherine Fishers Incarceron and Paolo Bacigalupis Ship Breaker.

Whew! I finished it! It‘s the last book for my Spring #BOOKED2021 - musical instrument on the cover. It was so good. I love the way music affected everything in their world and the pace was quick and exciting. So, so good. #100YEARS100BOOKS #81 #BookSpinBingo #6, my #DS and a bingo! #TALESandTAILSforADULTS #8 #BOOKED2021

The Hush is where music and magic meets. The world is built on a Song, and the magicians who wield the magic use Music to control it. Susanna and her gang have vendetta against the Musicians.

The world building was fantastic and the story fast paced and thrilling. Skye Melki-Wegner did a wonderful job pulling readers into her world.

🇬🇧This month I ordered my very first @magicchests box, so here's my unboxing!
I'm sorry to say that it doesn't compare to my absolute favorite box @fairyloot but I don't think any box can come even close to that one!
