Publisher's Summary

Isolation, darkness, and rotting flesh, 

Surround me, suffocate me, 

But I am the vile ruler who controls it all. 

I long for warmth, 

Yet, all that I touch, 

Is cold. 

Then, she stumbles in to my domain, 

Lost and frightened, 

Alone and confused. 

And I terrify her even more. 

She calls me the devil, 

So I show her pleasure, 

Like only the devil can. 

I am the heat that stirs her flesh, 

The longing that trembles her bone. 

She begs her body to refuse, 

To escape my embrace, 

But I am her master, 

The puppeteer of passion. 

I am the King of Flesh and Bone. 

Welcome to my court, little one. 

King of Flesh and Bone is a full-length dark fantasy novel, the first book in The Pale Court duet. The two-part story features a ruthless man, the woman who can't escape his love, and a happily ever after. This world contains dark themes, violence, loss, and elements of horror some may find disturbing. What this book doesn't contain is a hero—because villains do it better.

Stumbled across this book and wasn't sure about purchasing it but after reading some positive reviews I bit the bullet -so glad i did ! Dark with major trigger warnings so please don't go in blind - But i really enjoyed- Narration was great !!-its so different to what i would normally read, it makes me question why i liked it so much- but I loved it. Finishes on a cliff hanger getting next book now

Unexpected

I stumbled over this book, having never heard of it before, I decided to give it a go. It’s reaaallly well written and the story was actually interesting. I will likely go and see if this author has any other books, as I thoroughly enjoyed it in a whole. It is a very dark read however, and wouldn’t recommend to people who have suffered child loss or been victims of sexual assault or domestic violence.
