SCAVENGER HUNT PUZZLE
When she’s not writing, Breeana loves reading, traveling, and playing board games with her extremely competitive family. She lives near Washington D.C. with her husband, her three children, and two adorable, but spoiled dogs.
The Bone Charmer
On the day of Saskia’s kenning―a special bone reading that determines the apprenticeships of all seventeen-year-olds―her worst fear comes true. She receives an assignment to train as a Bone Charmer, a seer, like her mother. Saskia knows her mother saw multiple paths for her, yet chose the one she knew Saskia wouldn’t want. Their argument leads to a fracture in one of the bones, with the devastating result of splitting Saskia’s future. Now she will live her two potential paths simultaneously: one where she’s forced to confront her magic, and one where she tries to run from it. But when both paths become entangled in the plot of a rogue Charmer, Saskia learns that no future is safe, and some choices have unimaginable consequences. Only one future can survive. And Saskia’s life is in danger in both.

Here is my bonus material. “I’ve always wanted to write a book with a beautiful map in the front. Setting is so important—especially in a fantasy—and as I was writing THE BONE CHARMER, I put a lot of thought into creating the world. I really wanted the environment to mirror the novel in symbolic ways. Because THE BONE CHARMER is all about fate vs. free will and reflections on paths not taken, I built Kastelia—the fictional country where the duology takes place—on a delta. Kastelia is situated along a river called the Shard, which branches off into many tributaries that lead to the various towns and villages. Ariel photos of delta river systems are beautiful—they look like giant trees with thick trunks and slender branches. THE BONE CHARMER doesn’t have a map in front, but I did create one of my own—a crude version just for my reference. (Sadly, I have no artistic ability.). But today I’m sharing it for the first time so you can get a sneak peek of how I imagine Kastelia. And maybe someday I’ll hire someone to do the map justice, so I can have a beautiful illustration to hang on my wall.” Enjoy this never-before-seen map of Kastelia, the setting for both THE BONE CHARMER (out now) and THE BONE THIEF (coming in May). |
