About this audiobook
Fonda Lee returns to the acclaimed Green Bone Saga with four prequel short stories that delve into the personal histories of the Kaul and Ayt families.
The Witch and Her Friend. Before she was the ruthless leader of the Mountain clan, Ayt Mada was an orphan without friends at school except for one: Aun Ure, a teenage girl feared and renowned as an assassin but yearning for a simpler life.
Not Only Blood. Before he was the heir apparent of the No Peak clan, Kaul Lan challenged his grandfather and clan patriarch to help a boy who had lost everything.
Better Than Jade. Before they were married, Kaul Hilo and Maik Wen were a young couple facing long odds: the son of a top Green Bone clan in love with a stone-eye girl from a disreputable family.
Granddaughter Cormorant. Before she left and returned to Kekon, Kaul Shae was the apple of her grandfather’s eye … as well as a daring secret informer to a foreign country.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was 4 of the best short stories I've ever read.
This gave me so much I didn't really know I wanted, but each of the 4 stories let me into parts of the world that has just added more depth to the overall world. I can't wait to reread Greenbone knowing all this information now, it'll greatly make me love it more.
I honestly don't think I could pick a fav from the set, each gave a side of a I'd never seen from a character I adored, plus letting us meet a few new faces. Not to spoil anything but the POV character of the first story was fantastic, and it was great to see their relationship to the enigmatic Ayt Mada.
I just adored every second of this, and Im now sad I have no more stories left to read in this world. This was 4 of the best short stories I've ever read.1 person found this helpful
