Steeped in Slavic mythology, The Bone Roots is a gripping fantasy novel that explores themes of sacrifice, fate, and the inescapable ties of family. The story follows a young woman who bears a curse that binds her to both the world of the living and the dead. Her quest to break free from this supernatural destiny leads her through treacherous landscapes, where she encounters ancient spirits, dark prophecies, and the painful truths about her lineage. Reviews "Houston has a gift for world-building. The Bone Roots feels like stepping into a fairy tale passed down through generations—dark, lyrical, and utterly captivating. The prose is haunting, and the themes of destiny and family will resonate deeply with readers." "The novel is a powerful meditation on the past and how it shapes the present. The protagonist’s journey is full of difficult choices, sacrifices, and revelations that feel deeply personal and universal at the same time." "A stunningly atmospheric fantasy that draws heavily from Slavic folklore. The world is as beautiful as it is brutal, and the story lingers long after the final page. Gabriela Houston has crafted a tale that is as much about self-discovery as it is about breaking free from the chains of fate."
