I am SO excited for this book. This is a very hefty excerpt, giving us the first twenty-two chapters. The stakes have been climbing for our characters throughout the last two novels (and the novella) and things are finally coming to a head. There are a lot of points of views in this book, we get more with each installment, and Susan is able to navigate these POVs seamlessly, with each character having their own distinct voice. The storytelling is amazing, breadcrumbs that have been dropped are slowly becoming a trail but I am not sure if these are merely distractions for the reader while other, unknown, events are happening. If you like books with lots of twists and mind-blowing turns, definitely pick up this series, because events that I never imagined happening, are happening in this book.
 
The Twenty Year Truce is no longer and sides are being chosen...and Aeduan isn't sure what side he will fall on.

Full review when the book comes out!

This series is one of my top series of all time. Susan Dennard is a master - she managed to create a new world that feels both wholly new and familiar at the same time.

I MUST. HAVE. MORE. More BAEduan. More Iseult. More of Safi's puns. More of Vivia and Vaness and ALL my lovelies. Genuinely, each book in this series is better than the last. Susan Dennard's character-building is something a lot of readers praise, and this next installation of the Witchlands series is no exception as our beloved characters continue to grow (and go) in new directions.

I love the themes explored in this book. What makes a monster? Do 'monsters' deserve redemption? Friendship? Love? Let's throw a little forbidden love in there too, to keep things saucy. All with a healthy dose of magic slathered over everything of course. 

I also love the exploration of individual strengths and weaknesses, and how characters come to grips with them. While Safi and Isuelt are separated, they try to think and act as the other one, try to draw on each other's strengths that they've relied on forever and now have to muddle without through the dangerous world of the Witchlands, which, by the way, is on the brink of war. The strength and authority Vivia wears as a mask, contrasting her inner turmoil and uncertainty. Vaness's cold, powerful exterior, the sacrifices and criticisms she must bear as a true leader.

All happening, of course, in the unique world of magic we know and love.

I loved Truthwitch, Windwotch & Sigjtwitch, but Bloodwitch promises to be Susan's best book yet!

The last page in this excerpt left me desperate for more Aeduan & Iseult. Roll on February, 2019!

I have been very impatiently waiting for this next installment of the Witchlands series, and Sooz didn't disappoint! Getting to see all of our favorite characters back in action was so great! This first look gives us an update on what everyone has been doing in the two weeks since the end of Windwitch. Honestly, already there's so much going on I have no idea how Sooz keeps up with all of the threads! And don't even get me started on the chapter seven reveal. Absolutely amazing.

(Please note that as this is a preview, I won't be writing any reviews online yet, and instead wait until I can read and purchase a finished copy.)

Thanks Tor Teen for this preview! Ms. Dennard's books have been quite popular where I am, so I'm looking forward to getting in BLOODWITCH. Fast-paced, exceptionally written, and as always, completely engaging, I'm looking forward to seeing how this story will progress!

*review for the netgalley preview excerpt*
Seriously love this series so much and it looks like this book will be no exception. I love how the characters are growing and progressing and my heart hurts for the difficult situations they’re in. I am seriously emotionally invested. I can’t wait to read the whole book and see what all happens. Susan does a great job with world building and really immersing the reader in the story and I will forever be a big fan of her writing.
