Ilustration Toward Books An Inheritance of Ashes

Six months ago, the men of the lakelands marched south to fight a dark god. Weeks after the final battle was won, sixteen-year-old Hallie and her sister, Marthe, are still struggling to maintain their family farm—and are waiting for Marthe’s missing husband to return. After a summer of bitter arguments, Hallie is determined to get Roadstead Farm through the winter—and keep what’s left of her family together, despite an inheritance destined to drive them apart. But when Hallie hires a wandering veteran in a bid to save the farm, every phantom the men marched south to fight arrives at her front gate. Spider-eyed birds circle the fields, ghostly messages write themselves on the riverbank, and soon Hallie finds herself keeping her new hired hand’s desperate secrets—and taking dangerous risks. But as she fights to keep both the farm and her new friend safe, ugly truths about her own family are emerging—truths that, amid gods, monsters, and armies, might tear Roadstead Farm apart. Leah Bobet’s stark, beautiful fantasy explores the aftermath of the battles we fight and the slow, careful ways love can mend broken hearts—and a broken world.

They're not getting along, because Marthe's husband has not returned from the War where the Mad God was killed and that's placing a lot of pressure on their already strained relationship. Which is only one of a long history of strained relationships in this sad

Scholastic Canada sent me the ARC of this (they are co-publishing with Clarion in the US). I adored the writing in ABOVE, Bobet's first novel, and so was certainly willing to give this a shot, even though my reaction to the first handful of pages was: "Gee, gorgeous, but I don't know if I'm in the mood for a gritty contemporary set on a family farm that's -- OH WAIT." At that point the bird hit the window, and then caught fire. If I had been paying attention to those first pages -- or the cover,

Many of the books that have shaped my reading life in profound ways have maps at the start. Before the reader finds any text they are invited to pore over the landscape of a fantasy world. There might be bordering countries, or a region, or a large city with all of its crooked streets picked out. Topographical details may be sparse or plentiful. Whatever the case, these maps usually herald my favorite sort of story: A journey, a courageous hero or heroine, and triumph over evil/survival/happily

Its been several days since I finished this book and I still dont know how I feel about it. I certainly felt things a few times but it wasnt quite what I expected. I think 2.5 stars fits best. I didnt hate it, but I didnt love it, it was just ok. That cover is gorgeous though love it! The story is about sisters Hallie and Marthe and their struggle to keep the family farm by themselves. Theyre waiting for Marthes husband to return from the war with the Wicked God when another veteran happens

2.75 starsThis book started really strong, but then it lacked the thrilling elements that would keep me going. I found that the pace too slow and although it matched the soothing atmosphere of this book, it hindered me from enjoying this book in a thrilling, intriguing way. It took me so much time to finish this book and in the end, I just skimmed to end this book just for the sake of finishing it, not because I wanted to know what would happen and how to deal with it, because I already

4.5/5An Inheritance of Ashes is like a future post-apocalyptic Wild West story. It follows Halfrida Hoffman, half owner of Roadstead Farm. She works the farm with her sister who is pregnant and her husband never returned from the war. See the world is tormented by creatures known as Wicked Things. No one knows where they came from and if one touches you horrible things happen like your skin burning off. While the War is supposedly over, these creatures are definitely from the Wicked God and they
