A Gloom in the Bones (Trilogia di Mar-dröm Vol. 1)
Not yet published
Expected 25 Mar 26Clara è intrappolata in un incubo e, arenata in un mondo estraneo, ha sete di vendetta.
La notte in cui il suo ragazzo le ha detto che stavano venendo a prenderlo, non aveva idea da cosa stesse scappando. In lacrime le ha detto la supplica che ancora la tormenta. Moriresti per me, Lar?
Poi l’ha spinta in una dimensione parallela piena di mostri e ingannatori.
A Mar-dröm niente è come sembra. Tutto si costruisce su magia e violenza, e le creature sono infide. Con finta gentilezza e falsi doni ottengono la tua fiducia, solo per accoltellarti alle spalle e rubare tutto ciò che ti resta. E poi ci sono gli Artisti, immortali che hanno venduto l’anima al Dio Senza Occhi e che fanno valere il suo ordine divino tramite minacce e morte.
Clara sopravvive nascosta, mentre la sua rabbia cresce di giorno in giorno, finché una notte assiste a un omicidio. L’assassino inizia a perseguitarla, costringendola a fare l’unica cosa che aveva giurato di non donare la sua anima e diventare un’Artista a sua volta.
Così un mondo di potere, segreti e follia si apre per lei, chiedendole di compiere una scelta — restare al fianco della sua nuova famiglia e imparare a vivere di nuovo o fuggire da Mar-dröm e lasciare solo cenere e rovine dietro di sé.
Tra enigmi e tradimenti un antagonista segreto la aspetta.
Il Caos la vincola a un mostro.
E le sue Ombre non dimenticano.

ARC Review 🖤
5/5 ⭐️
I can’t believe what I just read! This story kept me wanting more. To keep reading way late at night to see what happens next.
I feel so bad for Clara. Having to going through so much betrayal especially from people you trusted and cared for.
Her motivation to see her family again made me shed some tears. I wouldn’t know what to do if I lost my family the way she did and never know if you could see them again.
I was freaked out with Feras at first. How the nightmares were with him in it. (Started to wonder if I’d get them too). But then I started to not see red flags 🚩 I can fix him right?
Vi.. you had my heart in the beginning but now I’m doubting. I did enjoy how sweet he was with Clara. And felt for him when he opened up his feelings to Clara.
Overall, this story captivated me. Had so much emotion, thriller, magic and a sprinkling of spice. I loved it. I am looking forward to what happens next in the second book!

Loveddddddddd it.
It’s a slow start but it needs it to be and despite that it’s very engaging, each chapter has you wanting to read just one more before bed. Loved all the ‘nightmares’ with Feras 😉. So intrigued by the ending! There were some characters that truly shocked me by the end and one in particular who I ended up loving way more than I thought I would. So excited for the next book!
