A girl with a deadly lung disease . . .
A boy with a tragic past . . .
A land where the sun never sets but darkness still creeps in . . .
Madeline Oliver has never wanted for anything, but now she would give anything just to breathe. Jason Wu skates through life on jokes, but when a tragedy leaves him guilt-stricken, he promises to tell only the truth, no matter the price. When a mysterious stranger named Hanali appears to Madeline and offers to heal her in exchange for one year of service to his people, Madeline and Jason are swept into a strange land where they don’t know the rules and where their decisions carry consequences that reach farther than they could ever guess.

The Crescent Stone
Hey there! I try to be completely honest with reviews, so here it goes.
Don’t be weirded out by the first chapter. I know it’s a bit out there, but it makes so much more sense later.
Overall the book was really good. This isn’t your typical fantasy book. I loved the fresh view on magic and its cost, very thought provoking and deep.
This book is interesting, it’s borderline laugh out loud funny at times but also deals with real topics and issues. Not what you would expect from something like this.
It is well written and definitely worth reading if you are into any kind of fantasy 🙂
The characters are great, Jason is the best! HE IS SO FUNNY!
Read the book, it’s worth it. The second book is really good too, but prepare to cry 😭😭😭😭😭
Anyway, read the book!
