Rezensionen

"The relationship between Calla and these performers becomes the most compelling part of the book, giving rise to questions about gender and the difference between a protector and a tyrant. Defeating evil is important, sure - but the real thrill is finding people who make you want to be your fullest self. It's lovely, life-affirming stuff." - Washington Post

"I was taken by the expert dismantling of the gender binary amidst a quest that is sexy, romantic, and heroic all at once." - Book Riot

"A steamy romance between Calla and Grae unfolds amid battles against monsters and dark magic, intertwined with Calla's fight against patriarchy and oppression and her burgeoning acceptance of her own genderqueerness. This series is off to an exciting start." - Publishers Weekly

"A beautiful journey of self-discovery and queer identity, filled with heart-stopping romance and page-turning adventure. A River of Golden Bones is a must read for fantasy and romance readers alike. I couldn't put it down!" - Cait Jacobs, author of Medievally Blonde


"I inhaled this novel. A River of Golden Bones by A.K. Mulford is a gorgeously written queer fairytale fantasy conjured with the bones of wicked worldbuilding and laced with decadent spice. Get ready to devour this wolfish tale." - Charissa Weaks, bestselling author The Witch Collector


"Mumford's romantic fantasy plays with fairy tales, explores gender roles and societal expectation, and starts a delightful trilogy of wolf royalty." - Library Journal

"If you're looking for a queer story about love, shape shifters and curses, then you have to read A River of Golden Bones. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I ended up finishing this one earlier than expected because I had to know what happened next...If you love shapeshifters, stories about overcoming odds and re-examining our beliefs, and politics, this is for you. It's a series I know I'll be keeping up with." - Utopia State of Mind

"One of the most moving books I've read in quite a while...I really, really liked the way that gender fluidity was explained and addressed within Calla's story. I thought that the example of someone else who was completely comfortable with who they were, what they looked like and how they presented was a really powerful thing. The realization for Calla was such a relief, and the opportunity to come to terms with it before it's inevitably used as a weapon was crucial. Really, really beautifully done!" - The Book Review Crew

"I was attracted to A River of Golden Bones because of the fairy tale elements to the story - the sleeping curse, a princess named Briar, you know, the usual. Once I got into it though, I realized that there was so much more to love about the book. It's one of those books that just sucks you in and makes you want to keep reading into the night." - Smexy Books

"An incredible book. From the depth of the characters to the beautifully described scenery. The sense of mild humor even when things are tough and the overarching sense of loyalty. This is a found family book and it shows in their interactions. I didn't want this book to end and, now that it has, I can't wait to read the next one." - Nonbinary Knights Reads and Reviews
