Bones The Book Novels & Stories

Ever since I was young, I knew that my parents' work was unique. My father was a detective who had solved many major cases, while my mother was a forensic artist who was capable of finding clues from the victim's bones. Together, they solved numerous cases.

As I climbed, the structure became clearer, each step revealing more of its grotesque grandeur. A fortress. Built entirely from bones. Columns of fused vertebrae.

I call out Solomon's name because calling Eddie is a no-no. I took a step forward again until my foot hit something. I look down and see a skeleton on the ground. I scream at the top of my lungs, backing away as I trip and fall on my ass to something complex. I turn my head and see more skeletons on the ground piled.

She reached in and touched one of the bones. The air shifted. The moon bled through the trees, slow and deliberate, casting silver shadows across the clearing. And the bones moved. One by one, like they had minds and mouths and instincts of their own, they slipped from the fabric and into the grass. Ribs. Vertebrae. A shattered femur. A jawbone missing its tongue.

I shoved the door open and bolted. Under the moonlight, my skin gleamed an eerie violet. Clearly, the wolfsbane had seeped into my bones.

I say quietly to Selene later that night. She looks at me. “Meaning?” “Meaning the Axis will outgrow singular stewardship,” I answer. “Whether we want it to or not.” Rowan stiffens. “You’re saying she won’t always be the center.” “I am saying she may become the first reference,” I clarify. Selene absorbs that without flinching. “Then Book Four,” she says slowly, “is about expansion.” “And Book Five,” Rowan adds grimly, “is about survival.”

The scout struggled for breath. "Nobody knows." Not a reassuring answer. "The ground is moving." Nobody liked that either. Lucien pinched the bridge of his nose. "Wonderful. Ancient monsters, magical crowns, and now moving mountains." "You're coping poorly," Cassian observed. "I'm coping exactly as expected." The argument ended abruptly. The Bone Crown suddenly burned.
