Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood Recap / Summary

 


Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood Recap

I have a really terrible memory and forget way too many details from series when I am reading them, which is why this is a thing. I do it for myself, so sometimes I will highlight thoughts in bold as I am going along-as the main purpose for these recaps is for me to read them over before I get to the next book/also see my thoughts as I was reading. I just upload them here in case they prove useful to other people. But I note down anything I think could be of importance or I know I will forget. Hope this helps someone!



House of Earth and Blood

Four Houses of Midgard

House of Earth and Blood - Humans, shifters, ordinary animals, witches, and many others to whom Cthona calls, as well as some chosen by Luna.

House of Sky and Breath - Malakim (angels), elementals, sprites, Fae and those who are blessed by Solas, along with some favoured by Luna.

House of Many Waters - River-spirits, water beasts, kelpies, mer, nymphs, nokks, and others watched over by Ogenas.

House of Flame and Shadow - Daemonaki, Reapers, vampyrs, draki, dragons, wraiths, necromances, and many wicked and unnamed things that ever Urd herself cannot see.

 

Part 1: The Hollow

 

Chapter 1 - Bryce works at Griffin Antiquities, has been working there a year. She is half-Fae, half-human. Lehabah is a tiny fire sprite who is owned by the owner of the gallery. Her best friend Danika Fendyr (a werewolf) shows up; she needs to leave a sword there for a few hours.

This was uploaded and edited as I was reading so some of my updates are from when I was in the process of reading - ignore those!




House of Sky and Breath

 

Prologue – Sofie Renast is in the Kavalla death camps, has been there for two weeks and the guards (dreadwolves) haven't sniffed her out yet. Half of the Ophion rebel bases have fallen, more will soon. She needs to get to the port of Servant. She can switch between human and Vanir identities as she is a human who made the Drop. Technically makes her Vanir and has a long life span. Did it in an illegal Drop center. Trying to escape with five boys, six girls and her 13 year old brother, Emile.

Parents were captured and killed as rebels, her brother taken. She spent years tracking down her brother to this camp and did terrible things to get the intel. Had to convince Command to let her come, they had listened to Pippa, leader of the elite Lightfall unit, who helped her to get approved for the mission.

Sofie has information in her head that could end the war against the Asteri. Agent Silverbow is waitng for her/them – doesn’t know his real name. Reach Servast, find the boat they need – the Bodegraven. But the dreadwolves have arrived. Tells Silver to take the kids, she will hold them off and join him there.
