Up until the point one of the girls was killed off. The sexualities of these characters was a complete non-issue, which I appreciated. One was a guy with a boyfriend, and the other two were girls in a relationship.
In the 61% of the book I read, there were three queer characters. But I only cared about the dogs in this book, and after reading about one being drowned and one being tortured I’d had enough. Or even the 61% might have been worth it. If I at least cared about one of the characters then maybe pushing forward might have been worth it. All I got was a half assed explanation about technology being busted and something about the sun, and oh look now there’s magic and people skin other people alive and then eat them.Ĥ) The characters were not worthy of investment. But in the 61% of Moon Chosen that I did read about two actual noteworthy plot things happened.įor the first book in a series called Tales of a New World you would expect quite an interesting story of what this new world is like, and why there is a new world at all. If the book had been cut down by 50% in terms of length it might have actually been an interesting book.
I don’t go into a YA fantasy expecting to read the foul things that I read in Moon Chosen. So the fact that Moon Chosen had such graphic and repetitive animal cruelty was abhorrent to me, and I was quite frankly horrified by it. It makes me feel horrible and disgusting. One of the reasons why I started putting trigger warnings on all of my reviews is because I cannot stand it when I read about animal cruelty. Ready to embrace her true destiny…and obliterate the forces that threaten to destroy them all. By forming a tumultuous alliance with Nik, she must make herself ready. Now, darkness is coming, and with it, a force, more terrible and destructive than the world has ever seen, leaving Mari to cast the shadows from the earth. It is not until Nik, the son of the leader from a rival, dominating clan strays across her path, that Mari experiences something she has never felt before… When a deadly attack tears her world apart, Mari reveals the strength of her powers and the forbidden secret of her dual nature as she embarks on a mission to save her people.
Mari is an Earth Walker, heir to the unique healing powers of her Clan but she has cast her duties aside, until she is chosen by a special animal ally, altering her destiny forever.
