Harrowick does a truly astonishing job weaving a tale of love and strife in a way that is relateable and tough to predict. I found myself surprised multiple times at some of the turns in the book.

I enjoyed the shift of Jàden from helpless and broken to the badass she is, making the necessary decisions to find Kale and trying not to hurt Jon in the process. The worldbuilding. The tree people. The tech. The non-tech. The way technology was made into myths. The shapeshifters. Love it all

Bloodflower hooked me from page one and never let go. It had everything I could want in a story: action, adventure, swoon-worthy romance, mystery, incredible world-building, unique magic, twists and surprises, characters that you love and hate. I’ve honestly never read a book with such an incredible mash-up of a technologically advanced world colliding with an intelligent sword and sorcery style world.

I raced through this book! Scifi, fantasy, magic, past lives, future worlds, romance, action and adventure, otters!… Bloodflower has it all! Part Altered Carbon/part The Expanse/part Polaris Rising, this story grabbed me from the first page and wouldn’t let go.

This book was GREAT! I love science-fantasy, and it hit just the right balance of sci-fi, fantasy, and romance for me. I loved the main characters, got angry at the antagonists, and mourned all the right corpses. This story takes place in a brutal world, but the fighting serves the plot and moves the story forward. Harrowick’s take on human-animal shifters was awesome, and I’d love to see it on film.
