This epic fantasy novel prominently features the Great Steppe, a vast grassland populated by six nomadic tribes that live together harmoniously. Unfortunately, the Empire&#8217;s invasion threatens to rip apart the ties that bind them together. It&#8217;s up to a new generation of leaders to mend the broken alliances or risk losing everything, including their inheritance.<\/p>\n<h4>Together We Burn by Isabel Iba\u00f1ez<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_288522\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-288522\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-288522 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-together-we-burn-isabel-ibanez-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"Together We Burn by Isabel Iba\u00f1ez | Honeycombers Book Club\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-together-we-burn-isabel-ibanez-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-together-we-burn-isabel-ibanez-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-together-we-burn-isabel-ibanez.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-288522\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Isabel Iba\u00f1ez<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Zarela is a flamenco <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/dance-class-studio-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dancer<\/a> who&#8217;s forced to become a dragon fighter, while Arturo is a devastatingly good-looking dragon hunter who refuses to help her. Despite their differences, the two have to work together and do whatever it takes to prevent outside forces from taking away Zarela&#8217;s birthright. This book is set in an ancient city inspired by Spain and plagued with dragons \u2013 two things that go well together, we reckon.<\/p>\n<h4>Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan<\/h4>\n<p>Here&#8217;s another bestselling book with a premise inspired by a tale you may be familiar with. The story follows Xingyi, an immortal who lives on the moon with her mother. Both of them lived under the radar for many years until the Celestial Emperor discovered their existence. The young girl flees from home and vows to free her mother, while others plot to take down the Celestial Kingdom. But don&#8217;t worry, the Emperors have a plan of their own. Written by a Malaysian author (hi, neighbour!), this novel has received rave reviews since its release.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_288546\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-288546\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-288546 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-daughter-of-the-moon-goddess-sue-lynn-tan-when-women-were-dragons-kelly-barnhill-goodreads-900x643.png\" alt=\"Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan and When Women Were Dragons by Kelly Barnhill | Honeycombers Book Club\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-daughter-of-the-moon-goddess-sue-lynn-tan-when-women-were-dragons-kelly-barnhill-goodreads-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-daughter-of-the-moon-goddess-sue-lynn-tan-when-women-were-dragons-kelly-barnhill-goodreads-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-daughter-of-the-moon-goddess-sue-lynn-tan-when-women-were-dragons-kelly-barnhill-goodreads.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-288546\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Goodreads<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>When Women Were Dragons by Kelly Barnhill<\/h4>\n<p>Imagine having the ability to turn into a dragon. Oh, wouldn&#8217;t that be awesome? This fantastical science-fiction novel explores that premise: in 1950s America, thousands of women were able to transform into mythical creatures. This leads to a &#8220;mass dragoning event&#8221; where many wives and mothers decide to metamorphose. Don&#8217;t be fooled by the blurb, however. While it may sound like a work of speculative fiction, it delivers in terms of emotional intelligence.<\/p>\n<h4>The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_288523\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-288523\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-288523 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-stieg-larsson-bulldog-books-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson | Honeycombers Book Club\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-stieg-larsson-bulldog-books-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-stieg-larsson-bulldog-books-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/hc-book-club-the-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-stieg-larsson-bulldog-books.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-288523\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Bulldog Books<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Here&#8217;s another book that doesn&#8217;t feature dragons; the closest thing is someone with a dragon tattoo.
