Faebound by Saara El-Arifi

5.0

I was NOT prepared for the immersive world building and emotional dynamics of this storyline!

I primarily read fantasy/romantasy and this is heavy on fantasy with character/beast bonding, dialogues between character and beast that is unheard by anybody else. Unlike fourth wing where Tairn is dry humor and poking fun at Violet, this bonded creature is filled with wisdom that had me desperately highlighting from the moment they bonded until the end.

The war storyline, political evolution between the three primary groups in this story and the lore of the magic is written so well that you catch yourself gasping when the plot inevitably twists and turns.
Bravo Saara! You did it again!
If you enjoy high fantasy with Fae, Elves, Humans and tons of world building add this to your TBR immediately!
