“‘Someday you too will die, and a new soul will take your place. Light on technology so this is a book that’ll appeal to a wide audience there isn’t a lot of worldbuilding beyond the setting (what happened to this planet), the beliefs of the Wastes (the stories passed down of gods and history), and the dangers of life in the Wastes (if the planet won’t kill you, the raiders probably will). Expertly plotted and paced, the book starts out running and never loses steam.
Bowman manages to balance a quick pace with beautifully descriptive language while effortlessly weaving worldbuilding into the narrative. A silent storm is coming.” Fast-paced and instantly engaging, Dustborn gripped me with its strong and vivid opening that highlights the dangerous postapocalyptic setting. Honestly, how am I supposed to review such an amazing book? “The northern sky is alight with ribbons of green and white, dancing and twining above the darkening horizon.
Dustborn is a must-read for fans of Mad Max and and stories of humanity’s hopeful perseverance in the face of adversity. Dustborn is everything I wanted it to be and will be a book I shove lovingly to everyone I know and I’m not even remotely sorry about it.
