Book Reviews

Kirkus Reviews

A steamy romance and devious twists along the way pack surprises. … The rigid, cliffhanger-heavy chapter structure is supported by breakneck pacing and constant action. … High stakes, epic scope, intense action, and sweeping mythologies.

VOYA Magazine

This massive novel packs a punch. The characters are passionate and well defined. The worldbuilding is immense, colorful, exciting, and unique. The villains are horrible. The author saves a final twist for the last few pages that throws everything into line and will leave readers thirsting for the next book.

School Library Journal, a Popular Pick

Readers will find the complex and flawed characters immensely relatable. The two narratives are deftly interwoven, and plot twists will keep teens on the edge of their seats.

Shelf Awareness

Told in short, alternating chapters, Claire Legrand’s Furyborn is an explosive trilogy-starter. Both Rielle and Eliana are strong and complicated with abilities that surpass anything their contemporaries can imagine. They are unapologetically powerful—women who know they are extraordinary and demand to be seen as such. And while both young women radiate strength and force, they are also distinctly human. Their stories are raw, filled with raging desire–for power, for sex, for safety. … Furyborn is a fantasy of wrath and passion, of young women who nod to the rules of their society while slyly or violently knocking down whatever stands in their way. They are strength incarnate and they are coming for you, Katniss, Beatrice and Clary.

Booklist

Legrand excels at world-building, deftly integrating the religion and history of this imaginary world into a dark yet rousing adventure story that combines passion and danger at every turn.

The Bulletin of the Center of Children’s Books

Strikingly vivid prose… the nearly five hundred pages race by in stunning fashion. This is a must-have for fans of Marchetta’s Lumatere Chronicles (Finnikin of the Rock), or Cashore’s Graceling.
