It’s been several weeks – I think around six or so – which is waaayy too long. But I’m finally back with yet another Majestic Monday!

For anyone unfamiliar, Majestic Mondays are when I highlight an awesome looking book cover and talk about what I like about it.

The book that I’m highlighting this week is The Bone Ships by RJ Barker.

The Bone Ships by RJ Barker

SERIES: The Tide Child Trilogy (Book #1)

LENGTH: 513 pages

GENRES: Fantasy, Fiction

PUBLISHER: Orbit

RELEASE DATE: 24 September 2019

BOOK DESCRIPTION:

Two nations at war. One prize beyond compare.

For generations, the Hundred Isles have built their ships from the bones of ancient dragons to fight an endless war. The dragons disappeared, but the battles for supremacy persisted.

Now, the first dragon in centuries has been spotted in far-off waters, and both sides see a chance to shift the balance of power in their favor. Because whoever catches it will win not only glory but the war.

Book Cover Rating: ⛵⛵⛵⛵ • 4 / 5 ships

I really, really like this cover. I like the minimalist style they went with for the colors, and I like how the cover itself resembles an old map.

The dragon taking up the top right corner looks great, too. It looks so fierce and angry and I love it. I also like how the dragon almost looks like a sketch that someone added to a map or something.

The calligraphy font of the title might be my favorite part of the cover, though. It’s what initially caught my eye, and it’s just so pretty. (I love calligraphy.) I also like how the B and the S (haha, did not intend to do that) have read shading. It really makes the title pop.

Anyway, as always, thank you so much for reading, and have a perfect day/night!

See ya ~Mar
