Book Review: Raybearer by Jordan Ifueko

Stars: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

First read this book two years ago but decided to give it a reread and thought I'd share my love for it with you all!

Overview

If you like....

Curses/promises/bargins

Mysterious parents

Half human protagonists

Important legacies

Self-sacrifice

Memory based powers

Beautiful culture

Found family

Ace rep!!!!!!!!!!

Unique magic systems

Magical politics

Corruption

Hidden history

Then this book is for you!

Blurb

'Tarisai has always longed for the warmth of a family. She was raised in isolation by a mysterious, often absent mother known only as The Lady.

'The Lady sends her to the capital of the global empire of Aritsar to compete with other children to be chosen as one of the Crown Prince's Council of Eleven. If she's picked, she'll be joined with the other Council members through the Ray, a bond deeper than blood. That closeness is irresistible to Tarisai, who has always wanted to belong somewhere. But The Lady has other ideas, including a magical wish that Tarisai is compelled to obey: kill the Crown Prince once she gains his trust.

'Tarisai won't stand by and become someone's pawn - but is she strong enough to choose a different path for herself?'

Overview

As you have probably guessed from the 5 stars, I have no complaints. Such a unique and vivid story, and a beautiful twist that was set up so well yet still managed to be surprising.

I also love how one of my least favourite tropes managed to be avoided by adding representation ( if you've read it you'll know what I mean.) It's proof that writers don't have to follow the same clichés to make an effective plot!

Also look at this map. I can't resist fantasy book maps. I never use them, but still feel disappointed in their absence.

I love it

First Line

'I shouldn't have been surprised that faries exist.'

'Only one thing is more powerful than a wish, and that is a purpose'

(Found art on pinterest, full credit to artist)

(Found artist, credit to @souldagger )

'Leadership isn't good or evil. It's what you choose to do with it.'

The Winner of the Most Wayward Soul Silmaril 2023!

Gollum made his way along the gloomy cobblestone street of London, the smog dimming the late afternoon light nicely around him. You’d almost think it was night. Yes, precious, how lovely! But, ugh, precious–it was difficult to breathe in this place! He half coughed, half gagged to clear his airway. Why was he doing this, again? Coming all this way to such a foreign land to hand over some…

I Am Not The Moon Lake Camp Killer

In line with sci-fi novels, Tambi Harwood’s sci-fi novel, "I Am Not the Moon Lake Camp Killer," is one of the best fantasy books as the story focuses on Liam, the main character, developing a special power along with his friends after discovering a meteor at summer camp. Suddenly, Liam was accused of murdering his twelve fellow campers. Strongly denying the accusation, he tries to unravel and find the real murderer. However, as he tries to, circumstances keep on coming, including his future self, who wants to kill him. As things went round and round, the story was fun to read and entertaining. The thrilling and suspenseful tone of the events running throughout the story will undoubtedly keep readers on the edge of their seats. With relatable, well-written characters and the great pacing of the story, anyone who opens the first page of the book will surely get hooked on this amazing story.

Killers of the Flower Moon plainly portrayed the casual violence that has historically upheld whiteness in this country, and so the subsequent shutout at the Oscars is the most unsurprising thing ever.
