House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J Maas (HOEAB pt. 1) – Crescent City

In today's episode, Sandra and Tera talk through House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J Maas (Crescent City series).CC is SJM's third series to date, and HOEAB transports readers to a modern Roman Empire-esque society where six Asteri rule over the planet of Midgard, home to humans and the four houses of creatures and fae: Earth and Blood, Sky and Breath, Flame and Shadow, and Many Waters.House of Earth and Blood is a fast-paced urban fantasy centered around a string of brutal murders, a mystery surrounding Bryce and Danika's past, and Bryce's journey from the darkest depths of her depression back into the light.There is major romantic tension with our resident Shadow of Death—the Umbra Mortis himself—Hunt Athalar (Athie as Lehabah calls him), but Earth and Blood is primarily a story about love and the power of friendship.Grab the tissues.In this episode, we openly discuss the first 42 chapters.
