Why read it?

1 author picked Bone Crier's Moon as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

 This book almost killed me! The tension is incredible and I found myself rooting for Ailesse and Sebastion to figure out the mystery behind the matron, and their attraction to each other. This plot is so twisted that it will keep you guessing all the way through. With every character determined that they are right, you’ll wish you could jump in and prove that you know it all, but you’d be wrong! It kept me on pins and needles and kept me from sleep. 

From Elizabeth's list on fantasy with a twist you never saw coming.
