Zelie remembers when the soil of Orisha hummed with magic. When different clans ruled - Burners igniting flames, Tiders beckoning waves, and Zelie's Reaper mother summoning forth souls.

But everything changed the night magic disappeared. Under the orders of a ruthless king, anyone with powers was targeted and killed, leaving Zelie without a mother and her people without hope. Only a few people remain with the power to use magic, and they must remain hidden.

Zelie is one such person. Now she has a chance to bring back magic to her people and strike against the monarchy. With the help of a rogue princess, Zelie must learn to harness her powers and outrun the crown prince, who is hell-bent on eradicating magic for good.

Danger lurks in Orisha, where strange creatures prowl, and vengeful spirits wait in the waters. Yet the greatest danger may be Zelie herself as she struggles to come to terms with the strength of her magic - and her growing feelings for an enemy.

The movie of Children of Blood and Bone is in development at Fox 2000/Temple Hill Productions with the incredible Karen Rosenfelt and Wyck Godfrey (Twilight, Maze Runner, The Fault In Our Stars) producing it.

 

他們殺了我的母親。
他們奪走了我們的魔法。
他們試圖埋葬我們。

現在，該我們反擊了。

曾經的大地魔法不復存在，
現在，我們要找回來。

憑著各大獎項與媒體的五星級評論，作者托米‧阿德耶米的自然魔法風格奇幻出道作，召喚出一個充滿魔法和危險的世界。
 

瑟爾莉‧阿德波拉還記得歐瑞莎的大地曾隨著魔法而嗡嗡作響。
導火師點燃火焰，喚浪師召喚大浪，
瑟爾莉身為招魂師的母親能召喚靈魂。
 

但在魔法消失的那晚，一切都改變了。
在一個無情國王的命令下，魔乩們慘遭殺害，
瑟爾莉從此失去了母親，她的同胞失去了希望。

現在，瑟爾莉只有一個機會能找回魔法──
對王權做出反擊。

在一個叛逆公主的幫助下，
瑟爾莉必須智取並逃離一心想徹底根除魔法的王儲。

歐瑞莎危機四伏，雪豹四處獵捕，
渴望復仇的亡魂則在水中等待。
然而，因為瑟爾莉難以控制自己的力量，
以及她對敵人與日俱增的感情，
導致最大的危險，可能來自瑟爾莉自己……
