Fonda Lee returns to the acclaimed Green Bone Saga with four prequel short stories that delve into the personal histories of the Kaul and Ayt families.
The Witch and Her Friend. Before she was the ruthless leader of the Mountain clan, Ayt Mada was an orphan without friends at school except for one: Aun Ure, a teenage girl feared and renowned as an assassin but yearning for a simpler life.
Not Only Blood. Before he was the heir apparent of the No Peak clan, Kaul Lan challenged his grandfather and clan patriarch to help a boy who had lost everything.
Better Than Jade. Before they were married, Kaul Hilo and Maik Wen were a young couple facing long odds: the son of a top Green Bone clan in love with a stone-eye girl from a disreputable family.
Granddaughter Cormorant. Before she left and returned to Kekon, Kaul Shae was the apple of her grandfather's eye ... as well as a daring secret informer to a foreign country.

      These four solid fantasy shorts, three of which were previously published through Lee’s Patreon, serve as prequel to the Green Bone Saga series, which concluded with 2021’s Jade Legacy. All explore revelatory moments in some of Lee’s most pivotal characters’ pasts. “The Witch and Her Friend” looks at the school days of terrifying Mountain matriarch Ayt Mada. “Not Only Blood” shows how the orphan Anden came to be adopted into the No Peak clan. In the surprisingly spicy “Better Than Jade,” the spotlight turns to the unlikely yet unwavering romance between No Peak’s Kaul Hilo and the stone-eye, or non–magic user, Maik Wen as it first blossoms. Finally, the tense “Granddaughter Cormorant” chronicles Kaul Shae’s earliest involvement in foreign affairs and espionage. There’s no grand unifying theme to these offerings beyond their setting, with moods ranging from wistful and distant to passionate and immediate, but all grant welcome glimpses into what makes these favorite characters tick. The result will be a treat for die-hard fans and series completionists. Agent: Jim McCarthy, Dystel, Goderich & Bourret.
