Greetings travelers of the Otherworld, and welcome to our absolute last stop of the year!\u00a0 We have had the absolute busiest year ever, and have been spending our time with tremendous talents, immense worlds, and compelling characters, but it is going to be spectacularly great to be closing out the year with one of our old friends in Olivia Thompson, who you might remember from a promo we looked at in early October.\u00a0 Well, now we’re back, for one more look for the skilled author, and one last look for the year.\u00a0 Read on to learn more about Child of Water: The Prequel<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In Olivia Thompson’s book, Child of Water: The Prequel<\/em>, the author sets a different sort of foundation than one might find if they had read her book Child of Water: The Rousing<\/em>.\u00a0 Indeed, the two can be read separately, giving the reader an understanding of the world that Thompson intricately carves out, yet these characters are often reflective of each other, an interesting foil for how one would act in other, strange circumstances.\u00a0 It’s still filled with raw emotion, some of which can be very mature, but it is tasteful and handled with the utmost respect by someone who is well aware of the position that a strong female character might find themselves in.\u00a0 While all of this narrative’s qualities are impressive, it is its characters that shine through, and they will have staying power long after the last page has been turned.<\/p>\n

Yoshi Province was plagued with water scarcity. There, samurai were regional lords in name only; if their hans were in Yoshi, they lived as poorly as many peasants \u2013 all except for Daimyo Sokan Hiroyuki that is. Somehow, his land flourishes with wealth and prosperity. Has he been blessed by the kami or something else? The answer is Hiroyuki\u2019s best-kept secret: he\u2019s holding captive a woman who can manipulate water.<\/em><\/p>\n

In this slow-burn romance, Aoi finds herself finally free to do whatever she wants, so long as she never leaves the land of Sokan. Yet, she\u2019s haunted with flashbacks of her past. She\u2019s tirelessly pursued by Hiroyuki\u2019s immature heir, Kishomaru. And now, rumors of her powers are spreading to other clans so that her very life may soon be at stake. Through it all, Aoi is determined to remain true to herself \u2013 if she can ever come to terms with whom or what she truly is.<\/em><\/p>\n

Child of Water: The Prequel<\/em> surprises in all the best ways, subverting expectations and keeping readers on their toes.\u00a0 Everything feels earned though, the author clever with her craft, and deliberate in her presentation thereof.\u00a0 With the explosive grandeur of an anime-style story, but the impact of historical events, this tale will have wide appeal.\u00a0 An expressive world awaits those readers who join Aoi on her journey, and Thompson has kept up with her passion, releasing two more books in the series, with more yet to come.\u00a0 But it all starts with this lovely entry.\u00a0 Check out Child of Water: The Prequel (Female Protagonists Anime Stories)<\/em> on Amazon<\/a> today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
