Blog Tour: The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon



Date Released: February 26th 2019
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Genre: Fantasy

Synopsis:
"From the internationally bestselling author of The Bone Season, a trailblazing, epic high fantasy about a world on the brink of war with dragons—and the women who must lead the fight to save it.

A world divided.
A queendom without an heir.
An ancient enemy awakens.

The House of Berethnet has ruled Inys for a thousand years. Still unwed, Queen Sabran the Ninth must conceive a daughter to protect her realm from destruction—but assassins are getting closer to her door.

Ead Duryan is an outsider at court. Though she has risen to the position of lady-in-waiting, she is loyal to a hidden society of mages. Ead keeps a watchful eye on Sabran, secretly protecting her with forbidden magic.

Across the dark sea, Tané has trained all her life to be a dragonrider, but is forced to make a choice that could see her life unravel.

Meanwhile, the divided East and West refuse to parley, and forces of chaos are rising from their sleep."

YOU GUYSSSSSS I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS BLOG POST TODAY!!! LOOK AT THE EXCLAMATION MARKS. My most and I mean MOST anticipated release of 2019 is Samantha Shannon's The Priory of the Orange Tree AND IT IS HERE - it is glorious, it is MAGNIFICENT.

I am beyond thrilled to be part of the blog tour for the release of this masterpiece and today I have for you a playlist inspired by the book.

For me this playlist represents many of the elements I felt and saw whilst reading the book: fighting,  war, the world falling apart, dragons, believing in yourself and freedom. I thought these songs embodied these ideas and I hope you feel them too when you listen.


Listen here:


(I created the playlist on YouTube as Swordland isn't available on Spotify, sorry peeps!)
