The best compliment I can give When The Moon Hatched is that 730 pages were not enough.
Sarah A. Parker has given us a Roman-Empire/Even-Mood-Readers-Will-Not-Get-Distracted-By-Other-Books kind of read with this one.
Stunning writing, “show” over “tell.”
A plot structure you haven’t read before.
Probably my favorite MMC of all time.
Incredible pacing.
A world to get LOST in - and love every second of being unmoored.
When the Moon Hatched is an easy five-star, but not an easy read.
By this I mean, Parker’s work is not Romantasy 101. So, while I would not recommend starting with this book if you’re not used to fantasy, if you’ve read and loved some of the popular Romantasy books…I think you’ll love this one even more. Just like I did.
There are enough familiar details to keep you grounded as you learn about this world…
Closed-off female assassin
Misunderstood king
Forced proximity
Found family
Slow burn
Elemental+ magic, dragons
…but when I tell you that this is SO NEW AND SO ORIGINAL…bet.
