HOUSE OF BASTIION REVIEW



This book is a little bit difficult to me to explain, but I really enjoyed this one. This is an Upper YAFantasywith a political plot. Also, this book has suspense, thriller and many themes more. 

House of Bastiion is placed on Orinthya, that is a Realm or Kingdom that is also divided by regions: Boreal, Bastiion, Darakai and Pilar. Each regions has a representation by one person who need to take part of the Orinthya Court. Also each court is named House. 

The book is divided by two POV's: one of them is Luscia, a girl who will ascend as the Boreal rep in the House of Boreal. The other character is Zaethan, the rep of the Darakai House. 

  



SYNOPSIS

Centuries after the Forgotten Wars ravaged the world and turned it to ash, the Houses of Pilar, Darakai, Boreal, and Bastiion forged an accord with the royal line of Thoarne, founding a Quadren of advisory to the throne of Orynthia. Every generation, a single Haidren from each of the four Houses is appointed to this coveted chair.

Upon her Ascension to adulthood, Luscia Tiergan takes her seat at court as al’Haidren to the House of Boreal and is quickly drawn into a maze of political traps and dark secrets. As she adjusts to her new life, Luscia uncovers a pattern of forgotten children, slain in the streets of Bastiion.

Raised on superstitious rumors about Boreal’s penchant for sorcery, Zaethan Kasim, al’Haidren to the House of Darakai, inevitably clashes with Lusica when she arrives in Bastiion. But when his position is threatened by an old rival, Zaethan is forced to set aside his hatred and form an uneasy alliance with the Boreali al’Haidren to secure his claim.

Following a disturbing stream of innocent bloodshed across Orynthia, Luscia and Zaethan discover their ideals are far more aligned than they might have imagined. But in a land of war and deceit, the path to peace should never be trusted.
