About this listen
Forced to appease the policies of a foreign fiefdom, Phenmir must do the unthinkable: harvest organs from infants.
Ten years ago, a new generation of children began to manifest abilities from the gods. Now, nearly half of the continent has chosen to graft the organs granting the abilities into adults. These gifted children are no longer the only ones with divine power.
Phenmir will no longer participate, but can he repent his sin before all morality is lost?
Meanwhile, Aerhee will give all to preserve the process of harvesting, silencing those who oppose her people.
Will this land of peace resort to the barbaric practice of war? In a battle of preservation and progression, there can only be one victor.

A debut of epic proportions!
From the very first lines, I felt myself drawn to the overarching struggle taking place within the world. And all that followed did a phenomenal job fleshing out the different societies, cultures, and where each people stood in regards to that struggle. There were some slower elements to me as there was a heavy focus placed on the politics around the war that's brewing. But the payoff at the end was great, and the world is now so fleshed out, with the proper chess pieces put in place, that I think the story is going to become even more epic than it already is. If you like classic fantasy with a focus on political tension, one centered around a righteous struggle fighting brutality and corruption, then go read this book!

Intriguingly Complex and Deep
Kaden Love has created a brilliant and complex web of culture and political intrigue layered with a fascinating magic system.
Political fantasy books have never been my go-to, but Elegy featured unique courts and magic systems that drives you forward, wondering what other mysteries and intricacies the world of Facet might hold.
The magic system--the basis for the main conflict and the rising civil war--is dependent on the harvesting of special organs from infants. These organs are transplanted into people the bureaucracy deems worthy. It's a gruesome and loathsome staple in their society, but some of the courts are tired of the horrid practice.
This is a multi-POV book, but one of the main characters, Phenmir, is a surgeon-turned-general who previously was forced to perform the procedures. Now, he rises up with a rebellion bent on ending the practice once and for all.
If you love political fantasy or intriguing magic systems, this is one you won't want to miss.
