"The audiobook narrated by Liam Gerrard perfectly captures Celehar’s voice." —Buzzfeed on The Grief of Stones

In The Grief of Stones, Katherine Addison returns to the world of The Goblin Emperor with a direct sequel to The Witness For The Dead...

Celehar’s life as the Witness for the Dead of Amalo grows less isolated as his circle of friends grows larger. He has been given an apprentice to teach, and he has stumbled over a scandal of the city—the foundling girls. Orphans with no family to claim them and no funds to buy an apprenticeship. Foundling boys go to the Prelacies; foundling girls are sold into service, or worse.

At once touching and shattering, Celehar’s witnessing for one of these girls will lead him into the depths of his own losses.

The love of his friends will lead him out again.

The narrator should have hold back with the sore throat voices for the mc, despite this little inconvenience it is a superb piece of a brilliant series. I am in love with the world / language/ characters.

As always with Katherine Addision, wonderful world building and characters, and a good mystery. In addition, excellent life lessons about resiliency, the nature of justice, self care, and grief are to be found!

Good reminders

this one is definitely stronger than Whitness, which while good, has some moments. This is one of those stories that I really wish would get brought to the small screen to get some more and I would love to see the world, which is even further expanded here and is simply wonderful. Can't wait for the next one.

Another Good One
