Untethered Sky

Untethered sky is an excellent exploration of a witcher-like monster hunter and the world in which she needs to exist. It's a classic “boy and his dragon” story, except it's a “horribly traumatized girl and her monster-killing monster” spin on it. I was expecting a fun, popcorn-y read of hunting and killing, but was positively surprised to find a more character-based read with a strong focus on the bond between the main character and her familiar, and other people in the same profession.

Where the Green Bone saga sometimes had shoddy pacing for me, here we get another story told over a long period but with much tighter focus. It's a rewarding read.
