About the Book

The start of an edge-of-your-seat, action-packed epic fantasy series from the irreverent Jackson Ford, where a wild band known as the Bone Raiders harness the power of gigantic, fire-breathing lizards to defend their homeland. "Awesome. Masterfully executed. Frequently hilarious." -- Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld WE DIDN'T START THE FIRE . . . BUT OUR GIANT FIRE-BREATHING LIZARDS DID. You don't f*ck with the Rakada. The people living in the grasslands of the Tapestry call them the Bone Raiders, from their charming habit of displaying the bones of those they kill on their armour. But being a raider is tough these days. There's a new Great Khan in the Tapestry. He plans to use his sizeable military to get rid of the raider clans. And then there are the huge fire-breathing lizards that are straying into the grasslands a little too often these days. Sayana is a raider scout. She knows that to protect their way of life, she needs do something drastic. Like convincing her clan to ride those huge lizards, instead of horses. Sayana doesn't know how to do it without being eaten and/or cooked alive, but she'd better figure it out fast - or she and her clan, along with every other raider in the Tapestry, will be wiped out. "Ford begins this new series with quirky characters, loads of great action sequences, and his trademark brand of humor." -- Booklist "The Bone Raiders is a relentlessly cheeky, ofttimes unserious, and undisputedly rip-roaring bit of fantasy that can only be written by Jackson Ford. Badass female protagonists, found family, and giant lizards -- what more do you need? Add this one to your TBR. I fully guarantee you'll be entertained." -- FanFiAddict For more from Jackson Ford, check out: The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind Random Sh*t Flying Through the Air Eye of the Sh*t Storm A Sh*tload of Crazy Powers

Review :
"Action-packed, insanely fun, wildly imaginative, and wonderfully human. Non-stop rip-roaring adventure from start to finish." --FanFi Addict "Gritty yet buoyant... Amid the relentless action, Ford draws from Mongol history to fully develop his Rakada protagonists, showing their moral quandaries and ethical uneasiness. This is a promising start." --Publishers Weekly "Ford begins this new series with quirky characters, loads of great action sequences, and his trademark brand of humor." --Booklist "This book was a ton of fun. The premise is awesome, the found-family dynamic is masterfully executed, the dialogue is wicked-sharp and frequently hilarious. I'm thoroughly convinced that Jackson Ford's prose could make a haircut feel like an epic adventure." --Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld "Ford's strengths are evident in the taut action sequences and suspenseful pacing."--Publishers Weekly, on The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind "Ford's breakneck pace keeps the tension high, and the thrills coming the whole way through."--BookPage, on The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind "Ford's debut holds nothing back, delivering a sense of absurd fun and high-speed thrills that more than lives up to that amazing title."--B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog, on The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind "Teagan is a frank and funny narrator for this wild ride, which starts off with our heroine falling from the 82nd floor of a skyscraper and pretty much never slow down . . . . A fast-paced, high-adrenaline tale that manages to get into some dark themes without losing its sense of fun."--Kirkus, on The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind "The novel unfolds cinematically with loads of breathtaking action, a perfect candidate for film or television adaptation . . . [Readers will] want more."--Booklist, on The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind "The writing and storytelling is as clear and fun as the title indicates."--Locus, on The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t With Her Mind
