12 posts | 11 read | 1 reading | 22 to read
A young woman is both a bard--and a warrior--in this thrilling historical fantasy from the author of the Sevenwaters novels. Eighteen-year-old Liobhan is a powerful singer and an expert whistle player. Her brother has a voice to melt the hardest heart, and is a rare talent on the harp. But Liobhan's burning ambition is to join the elite warrior band on Swan Island. She and her brother train there to compete for places, and find themselves joining a mission while still candidates. Their unusual blend of skills makes them ideal for this particular job, which requires going undercover as traveling minstrels. For Swan Island trains both warriors and spies. Their mission: to find and retrieve a precious harp, an ancient symbol of kingship, which has gone missing. If the instrument is not played at the upcoming coronation, the candidate will not be accepted and the kingdom will be thrown into disarray. Faced with plotting courtiers and tight-lipped druids, an insightful storyteller, and a boorish Crown Prince, Liobhan soon realizes an Otherworld power may be meddling in the affairs of the kingdom. When ambition clashes with conscience, Liobhan must make a bold decision--and the consequences may break her heart.

Not bad, but disappointing for a Marillier novel. I want invested in the plot or the characters

I‘m always on the lookout for heroines that‘s remind me of Brienne of Tarth and Liobhan fits the bill. She‘s a warrior and a bard and wants nothing more than to join the warriors of Swan Island. While a trainee she gets chosen for a mission along with her brother and the aloof Dau. It was an awesome start to a series!

Chrissyreadit I had to look this up when I saw it in your best of list- and then I HAD to stack it😘 4y
CoffeeK8 @Chrissyreadit you will not be disappointed! 💕 4y

Here's my #bookspin options for April! Since there are mostly books I've been meaning to get to for ages, and now I have no library access, I'm hoping to manage a #doublespin and maybe even #triplespin
@TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo! Great list!! 5y

THE HARP OF KINGS by one of my new favorite authors Juliet Marrilier
It is *chef's kiss* epic fantasy. Magical, fey, mysterious, dangerous fantasy.

I thought there would never be another author to equal Douglas Nicholas' Something Red series, but I found it in this haunting and lovely tale by Juliet Marillier. There's a little bit of everything here but mostly a quest featuring a feisty young female warrior, a prickly male counterpart, an otherworldly bard, an island of warriors, a pain-in-the-ass king-to-be, lots of faery folk, and druids. It's out in Sept - make your first Fall read!
