Historia
Hunting, gathering, and keeping his family safe - that's the life 17-year-old Kol knows. Then bold, enigmatic Mya arrives from the south with her family, and Kol is captivated. He wants her to like and trust him, but any hopes of impressing her are ruined when he makes a careless - and nearly grave - mistake. However, there's something more to Mya's cool disdain - a history wrought with loss that comes to light when another clan arrives. With them is Lo, an enemy from Mya's past who Mya swears has ulterior motives.

New and compelling standout in YA fiction
Revisado: 06-30-16
What did you love best about Ivory and Bone?
I loved that this novel uses the esteemed tradition of storytelling, which crosses so many cultures all along the timeline of mankind.
And when so many YA novels have imagined what a dystopian future might look like, it was refreshing to read a young adult novel that shows us what life was really like a long, long, long time ago.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Even though we spend most of the story with Kol, I thought all four of the brothers had outstanding moments.
What does Michael Curran-Dorsano bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Michael Curran-Dorsano sounds like what I expected Kol to sound like, and he does an excellent job of bringing Kol's story to life.
Also, it might be harder to really get the masculine voice of Kol's character, if you only read the book.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Definitely. I would listen to it for long stretches at a time.
Any additional comments?
The author is an awesome person, and her debut was worth the wait. So excited for Book 2.

Historia
Ten years ago, Calamity came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. But Epics are no friend of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to rule. And to rule man you must crush his wills. Nobody fights the Epics...nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them. And David wants in. He wants Steelheart - the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father.
