The kind of dynasty she creates with each novel, leaves me speechless. House of Earth and Blood introduces a dynasty like this. In the first few chapters, it took me while to understand this fae kingdom she has created. Once I got into it, there was no going back. Every chapter had unexpected twists that left me in awe. I cannot not mention the slow burn chemistry and romance between the lead characters Bryce and Hunt. The build up is so good. The thing i found most refreshing was that the book was not divided into chapters with each character's point of view. Of late that has been the trend. This is a story about friendship, love, relationships, grief and power. The climax grows on you like none other, as if the engine has come into full power and you won't know what hit you. I am not going to repeat the blurb, you can read that anywhere right? I recommend this book to all those who love a fabulous fantasy fiction. This is the first part of the Crescent City triology. Review: A Fan - Freaking - Tastic Start to a New Adult Fantasy Series! <3 - Soo.. I have picked up Throne of Glass and left the series after finishing ToG; because I wasn’t connecting to the characters or the story (#sorrynotsorry!) but I had high hopes from this humongous 800 page tome; because a. It is an adult fantasy – and yes while, it isn’t a certainty that adults will behave maturely as compared to young adults; there is a higher probability that I will actually connect with these characters! b. Even if I didn’t connect with ToG; I had no problems with Maas’s writing style – I found it to be engaging, stimulating and with the capability of capturing my interest from the get go. So; I knew that the writing style of the author would be enjoyable to me! Now; coming to the actual review – I will not be able to actually summarize HOW MUCH I ENJOYED the experience of reading this tome, before I start to bore you; so let me make points: 1. Bryce Quinlinn – a fiercely, sarcastic, rule breaking harpy with a heart that has been bruised and broken – more accurately damaged – is someone that I DID NOT like for more than half the book; and I am not sure if I still like her after completing the book. But I do know that I respect the heck out of her – she is strong, fierce and takes no notice of anyone else’s thoughts or opinions on her – or at least does her best not to! 2. Hunt Athalar – a slave assassin who indenture is a burden he has no choice but to carry – and somehow doesn’t see a light at the end of a long, dark and bleak tunnel. So he keeps his head down, keeps moving forward one step at a time. He is gentle at heart; and even with his vicious reputation; it was easy to see that the trauma he endured shadows a kind and loyal heart! 3. The multitude of characters playing a vital role in the world – there were so many; that it took me the whole book to keep them straight in my head – WE NEED A PREQUEL TO UNDERSTAND THIS WORLD! 4. The element of having a mystery within a fantasy world was a brilliant stroke – the twists and turns; the revelations of betrayals, secrets and things that would make any weaker protagonist buckle just made Bryce and Hunt’s decisions & actions all the more believable! Trust me; once you get used to the world created by Maas; the book seems to fly – you just CANNOT stop reading! 5. I adored that Maas made sure that there was no “saving the world” kind of responsibility thrust on the shoulders of the protagonists – which made the climax pretty darn perfect experience in my head – I swear; with both Bryce and Hunt being characters you just won’t like in the start; the growth they had to become characters I could respect and definitely want on my team – incredible! 6. Last; but definitely NOT the least – the romance; this is an adult fantasy – the attraction between Hunt & Bryce was sizzling; slow burn and definitely angst ridden. But it was one that saw a conclusion within this book; so I am really hoping that the next book is all about a couple I am rooting *wink wink* If you have actually read through the whole review – kudos and now go pick up this book if any of the aspects seem to be of your liking – and if you are already a fan of Sarah J Maas; do I even need to say anything more? ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #474,198 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #12 in Urban Fantasy (Books) #31 in Post-Apocalyptic Science Fiction (Books) #40 in Romantic Fantasy | | Book 1 of 3 | Crescent City | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (147,010) | | Dimensions | 16.64 x 6.1 x 24.38 cm | | Generic Name | Books | | ISBN-10 | 1635574048 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1635574043 | | Importer | Bloomsbury Publishing | | Item Weight | 1 kg 70 g | | Language | English | | Packer | Bloomsbury Publishing | | Print length | 816 pages | | Publication date | 3 March 2020 | | Publisher | Bloomsbury Publishing | ## Images ![House of Earth and Blood - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91OLrHDm+WL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thunderbolt Climax- Wait for it! *by S***D on 19 January 2025* Ms. Maas is a legend in this game called writing.

Maas. *by N***I on 25 March 2020* This latest book by Sarah J. Maas has been the talk of the town everywhere! It is literally everywhere! It's amazing. Note: The review may have a few spoilers. Be careful when you read it. Review: 3.5 Stars House of Earth and Blood is a well-written, fast paced story that has it's ups and downs. The book started off slowly and abruptly, making it difficult for me to understand the context setting and the initial character introductions. However, as the story progresses, the plot becomes stronger and more interesting. The story becomes gripping and is a wild roller-coaster until the very end. The author ensures that the readers attention is on the book and nowhere else! Most of the characters are well crafted and interesting. However, I was not very impressed with Bryce, the main protagonist of the story. She is not as relatable as I had hoped, but all in all, she holds her own well in the story. Being half-fae, she is under the protection of the Fae community, but that is where it ends. On her own with her best friends, living away from her loving mother and step-father, anyone will assume that she is enjoying her life. But when tragedy strikes, it all comes undone. As Bryce is pulled in to investigate her best friends death, the possibility of suicide, then murder all lurk about. Bryce has to sort out the facts and separate the truth from the lies. Hunt Athalar, personal assassin for the Archangels, is forced to step in protect Bryce, while working with her to solve the case. What ensues is a battle of wits and an underlying attraction which the two characters fight. With a lot of secrets being kept, it is not easy to find out the truth. I did come to love a lot of the supporting characters, Bryce's best friend Fury, shrouded in mystery. Her step-brother, the Fae prince whom a lot of readers will come to love. His is a very well developed character. I also liked the other Archangels both good and bad. The author brings out a colorful variety in the nature of characters introduced. One message which is persistent throughout the book is the meaning of friendship and loyalty. The author also shows us the true power of love above all else. The story, even though a little slow at first, was truly a wonderful read! I thoroughly enjoyed the action and appreciate the way the characters find their way in the end! Even Bryce and Hunt grow on you in the end and the reader just has to accept them since they bring the story together! ## Frequently Bought Together - House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City, 1) - House of Sky and Breath (Crescent City, 2) - House of Flame and Shadow (Crescent City, 3) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/424924800-house-of-earth-and-blood](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/424924800-house-of-earth-and-blood) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-10-15*
