Kindle Edition

by Sarah J. Maas (Author)

A #1 New York Times bestseller!

Sarah J. Maas's brand-new CRESCENT CITY series begins with House of Earth and Blood: the story of half-Fae and half-human Bryce Quinlan as she seeks revenge in a contemporary fantasy world of magic, danger, and searing romance.

Bryce Quinlan had the perfect life-working hard all day and partying all night-until a demon murdered her closest friends, leaving her bereft, wounded, and alone. When the accused is behind bars but the crimes start up again, Bryce finds herself at the heart of the investigation. She'll do whatever it takes to avenge their deaths.

Hunt Athalar is a notorious Fallen angel, now enslaved to the Archangels he once attempted to overthrow. His brutal skills and incredible strength have been set to one purpose-to assassinate his boss's enemies, no questions asked. But with a demon wreaking havoc in the city, he's offered an irresistible deal: help Bryce find the murderer, and his freedom will be within reach.

As Bryce and Hunt dig deep into Crescent City's underbelly, they discover a dark power that threatens everything and everyone they hold dear, and they find, in each other, a blazing passion-one that could set them both free, if they'd only let it.

With unforgettable characters, sizzling romance, and page-turning suspense, this richly inventive new fantasy series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas delves into the heartache of loss, the price of freedom-and the power of love.

House of Sky and Breath (Crescent City)

by Sarah J. Maas (Author)

(25,181)

The #1 New York Times bestseller!

Sarah J. Maas's sexy, groundbreaking CRESCENT CITY series continues with the
second installment.

Bryce Quinlan and Hunt Athalar are trying to get back to normal-they may have saved Crescent City, but with so much upheaval in their lives lately, they mostly want a chance to relax. Slow down. Figure out what the future holds.

The Asteri have kept their word so far, leaving Bryce and Hunt alone. But with the rebels chipping away at the Asteri's power, the threat the rulers pose is growing. As Bryce, Hunt, and their friends get pulled into the rebels' plans, the choice becomes clear: stay silent while others are oppressed, or fight for what's right. And they've never been very good at staying silent.

In this sexy, action-packed sequel to the #1 bestseller House of Earth and Blood, Sarah J. Maas weaves a captivating story of a world about to explode-and the people who will do anything to save it.

Great book. It has everything I enjoy reading.
The main characters are funny, intense, stubborn, strong, intelligent, and alittle crazy. You're in a world where they have Angels, Fae, demons, vampires, werewolves, witches, humans and halfbloods. I can't wait for the next book in the series. From beginning to end. I could not put this book down. I read it in 3 days. I really can't wait to see what the next book has instore for Bryce and Hunt. If you want to go on an adventure that will keep you. On your toes.make you cry, laugh, and cheer this is the book for you

A let down from Maas...

Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2021

Hello my lovely book lovers. It has been some time since I have written a review and I figured why not write one now.

Let me just start with this book took me over a month to read and was probably the hardest book to get into. There was a massive info dump at the beginning and the first 500 pages were probably the biggest let down for me.

There are quiet a few triggers in this book. So be warned for those. The biggest one I noticed was drug use. The swear was a lot and sex was pretty much watching a porno. I want to be blunt and up front with my reviews from now on, so here we go with the main review.

So as stated above, the beginning of the book was a huge info dump that I could have cared less about. While important, I don't feel it was important enough to really constituent 500 pages. There were details in the book that bothered me and were unnecessary. I really didn't care how short Bryce's dress was or if you could see muscles through her clothing. I'm pretty sure everyone who read it understood more people found Bryce attractive and wanted to sleep with her which is fine.

Now touching on some of the more technical aspects. This book was written in YA style with added adult content which was rather depressing for me. I was really looking for deep characters and a deep, deep plot that normally comes with adult fantasy. Sarah is the queen of smut and we all know this. Sadly, smut and swearing doesn't make an adult novel and adult novel. So this was a super let down for me and I'm sure the cussing made up at least 1/8 of the word count for this book. So if swearing bothers you please don't bother with this book.

Now lets dig into my biggest complaint for this book, if you have read Maas' other works you have pretty much read this one. With some name changes and location and time change, Maas' has somehow managed to take all the same characters shes written and write them into a new exciting plot line and managed destroy your hopes of the good ones to continue on in the plot line. Lets look back at Sam and Nehemia. Well loved characters taken from us to soon.There were many points in this book where I felt I was reading The A Court series and Throne of Glass all over again. Bryce was Aelin remade. Which really made me disappointed in the main character as a whole. Though I think I have far more rooted feelings for how I feel than just her being a remade character with a different exterior. Continuing on into the more story moving similarities. "Like calls to like" was yet again used which is fine, it helps connect the world Maas is making and allows the words to connect like we know that do. (Aelin flying through Velaris and Crescent City in Kingdom of Ash.)

Now onto the Good, this story after page 500 finally started moving and the pace picked up and did keep me entertained. I was finally okay and didn't want to chuck the entire book across the room. The swearing subsided and finally got to the deeper part of story. While the climax of the book felt familiar, it did leave me content with the book.

Over all this book was a solid 3 out of 5 stars. It was a 1 or 2 before I reached the 500 page mark solely because the ending redeemed the book. The genre of the book did nothing for me as I'm not a fan of urban fantasy. I think I went into this book expecting deep writing like some of my favorite adult fantasy writers and just didn't get the depth I was hoping for. So I think that list plays a huge role in my rating and review of this book. I did enjoy the read, but it was not up to par with my expectations for the adult fantasy genre.

Gosh this was soooo good!
For sure took me a bit to get into (I had just finished binge reading ToG and ACOTAR so I was very deep in that world!) but once I did, I was sold! SJM is an AMAZING world builder and story teller. Bryce is fantastic and Hunt, swoon. I cannot wait for November to have the short continue!! Also, totally loved all the tiny connections to ToG and ACOTAR. EASTER EGGS!!

Oh she DIDN'T!!!!!...... Did she???

Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2022

Spoiler alert?? Maybe???

So the series, so far is fantastic. It's got a great plot line, lots of good twists I did NOT see coming and I just love that. It's hard to do because there is no hint of anything on the wind with some of this. Bryce reminds me a lot of Feyre with her never-stop-rebelling attitude. Now for the spoiler alert.... did Miss Maas seriously just cross over into Feyre's world?!

Edge of my seat suspension

Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2020

got this book because Sarah Maas knows how to write and knew it was goingto be worth it... love love loved it....as you start the book you have no idea where it was going to lead you and the path it is full of twists and turns that keeps even me for guessing the how it would end (I can guess 90% of the books endings so this was an amazing surprise) I absolutely cannot wait until the sequel is released.... i hope it will come soon.

Fantasy Mystery Suspense Thriller at its FINEST

Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2020

So well written, the detailed characters, witty banter, angst, unimaginable twist, heart wrenching & morally powerful. Hours of intense, nail biting, tear jerking, laugh out loud, heart fluttering reading - - - & I still couldn't get enough. The wait for book two starts now...

Good read! Definitely would recommend it.

Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2020

I’m new to this author. Hesitated because of the price but obviously caved in.
Initially I down loaded a sample to read which definitely drew me in so decided to make the purchase.
Very good book! Creative ... good plot ... few surprises ... in a good way. A lot to absorb at first... names places and such but eventually it sticks.
Stayed up til 3 am to finish it last night ... couldn’t put it down.
Hopefully the next book in this series is going to be priced more affordability.
