"Equal parts soaring fantasy, heart-pounding action, and bloody social commentary, Blood Scion is a triumph of a book." -Roseanne A. Brown, New York Times bestselling author of A Song of Wraiths and Ruin This is what they deserve. They wanted me to be a monster. I will be the worst monster they ever created. Fifteen-year-old Sloane can incinerate an enemy at will-she is a Scion, a descendant of the ancient Orisha gods. Under the Lucis' brutal rule, her identity means her death if her powers are discovered. But when she is forcibly conscripted into the Lucis army on her fifteenth birthday, Sloane sees a new opportunity: to overcome the bloody challenges of Lucis training, and destroy them from within. Following one girl's journey of magic, injustice, power, and revenge, Deborah Falaye's debut novel, inspired by Yoruba-Nigerian mythology, is a magnetic combination of Children of Blood and Bone and An Ember in the Ashes.

Blood Scion is the first book from Deborah Falaye�s series, also, named Blood Scion. It is, also, the first book I have by this author. I am not a huge fantasy genre reader but I thought this one was a pretty good read. Even though there were a few scenes I was confused but once I caught on as to what was going on, I was hooked again. Overall, I found it to be entertaining from the start to finish. I liked it.
Blood Scion will be getting four stars from me. I recommend it for readers who enjoy reading young adult fantasy fiction. I am interested in finding out what will happen in the next installment from the Blood Scion series, a planned 2023 release.
I received a digital copy of Blood Scion from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
