Summary

Finding it could cost them everything。 Wielding it could mean their end。

It’s a secret lost in time, a myth among immortals, a relic of such power that vampires around the world have quietly harbored the hope that it doesn’t really exist。
It’s a mystery that Tenzin and Ben cannot resist。

But to obtain the Bone Scroll, they’ll need leverage over the most powerful and mercurial vampire in the known world。 Saba, oldest of immortals and mother of the vampire race, has returned to her homeland in the highlands of Ethiopia, searching for the scroll with a cadre of elders。 In order to outsmart them, Ben and Tenzin will need to walk a literal and figurative edge through a maze of vampire loyalties, shadowy motivations, and ancient secrets。

If Saba wanted them gone, she could command the earth to swallow them whole。 But the mother of vampires is playing her own game, and both Ben and Tenzin are no more than pawns。

Can they outsmart and outmaneuver the most primeval beings in their race to find the Bone Scroll before it lands in the possession of those who care only for their own selfish gain?

The Bone Scroll is the next supernatural mystery in the Elemental Legacy series by Elizabeth Hunter, USA Today bestselling author of the Elemental Mysteries, the Irin Chronicles, and the Glimmer Lake series。

Too slow of a burn for me compared to Hunter’s other stories。 Still a great story!I did love having Gio and B back。 I’m hoping we see more of Daniel in future books。

The elemental series is full of adventure, like Indiana Jones meets Twilight meets Fifty shades, it’s honestly one of my favorites。 Elizabeth Hunter writes smart, engaging characters that stay with you。 The Bone Srcoll features Ben and Tenzine。 If you’re a fan of the series, all I have to say is Benzine and you get it, but just in case you’re new, we meet Ben ages ago as he is a teen adopted by a powerful vampire。 Ben is human but raised in a worldof immortals。 It’s been so much fun to see the r The elemental series is full of adventure, like Indiana Jones meets Twilight meets Fifty shades, it’s honestly one of my favorites。 Elizabeth Hunter writes smart, engaging characters that stay with you。 The Bone Srcoll features Ben and Tenzine。 If you’re a fan of the series, all I have to say is Benzine and you get it, but just in case you’re new, we meet Ben ages ago as he is a teen adopted by a powerful vampire。 Ben is human but raised in a worldof immortals。 It’s been so much fun to see the relationship between he and Tenzine evolve over the course of all of these books。 She is a very old very powerful vampire that took an interest in Ben very young。 Nothing taboo here, she mentored him, taught him to fight and survive in both worlds。 Their bond led to a deep friendship which led to more once he became an adult。 That’s about as much as I want to share incase you you’re not caught up or you haven’t begun this series。 I’m totally in love with this series, with all of the characters。 They are loyal and lovable。 They speak frankly and love fiercely。 Honestly, I always feel a little smarter after reading one of Elizabeth Hunters books。 I feel like I’ve visited the places she writes about, and isn’t that one of the reasons we read? Nothing but love in this review。 。。。more

STUNNING conclusion。 I have been looking forward to this book since the moment I first finished Dawn Caravan and Ms。 Hunter did not disappoint me。 Everyone had strong personal growth and the hunt had a definitive sense of urgency。 I love my time living in the Elemental World whenever I visit。

I was highly anticipating this last scheduled ride with Tenzin and Ben。 I am so thankful that I was not disappointed in any way, (to be honest, I actually don't think that is possible from Elizabeth Hunter)。This is Tenzin's and Ben's last official mystery, and there are some plot twists I really don't think you'll see coming。 One is rather epic, and is spoken by Saba。 Daniel is a character I would like to see more of, and the history between him and Dema is a short story in the making。 It was wo I was highly anticipating this last scheduled ride with Tenzin and Ben。 I am so thankful that I was not disappointed in any way, (to be honest, I actually don't think that is possible from Elizabeth Hunter)。This is Tenzin's and Ben's last official mystery, and there are some plot twists I really don't think you'll see coming。 One is rather epic, and is spoken by Saba。 Daniel is a character I would like to see more of, and the history between him and Dema is a short story in the making。 It was wonderful to see Sadia, B and Gio too, and that they were a part of this story。 It was one hell of an emotional ride with these two。 Tenzin's inner voice is truly something to listen to。 She is a very deep character, and hysterical at times too。 Ben has much on his mind too, especially in the Tenzin department。 Their barter near the end of the book will most definitely put a smile on your face。It is very hard to write a review for this book without giving anything away。 It was an escape into a world of make belief that just seems so alive when told by Elizabeth Hunter。 Her way with words is something to behold, that you just feel everything the characters are feeling and thinking。 You laugh and cry with them。 The descriptions of Ethiopia are amazing, and you can just imagine yourself there and/or makes you want to visit。 It was a ride I didn't want to end。 I think they'll have more mysteries to unravel as time goes on。 。。。more

Wow wow wow wow。Elizabeth Hunter does it again, Elizabeth writes with such attention to detail。 Her characters are so well developed and the world-building is so fantastic you feel like you are in Ethiopia。 I love the characters of Ben and Tenzin and it’s nice to see them finding their rhythm as a couple。Ben and Tenzin with help from friends in search of the bone scroll a very old and possibly dangerous artefact

Now we are getting to the heart of the relationship of Ben & Tenzin, as they make choices and adjust to their lives together。 They learn of a new magical artifact, the Bone Scroll, and make plans to find it。 As they go along, we get more time with Gio, B and Sadia,   Chloe and meet Daniel, Carwyn's youngest son, an earth vampire。  So it's enjoyable to catch up with these characters as they go on the hunt。One of the most compelling aspects for me, was the lush descriptions of Ethiopia。 It made me want to know more of its history and current situation。  I'd also like to travel there and learn more about their food。There is a real progression and learning between Ben and Tenzin。  They have always had complimentary skills。  Tenzin knows a lot of history and about vampires。  Ben has better people skills and strategy and modern knowledge。   They've worked together for about ten years but it's odd now to see their sexual relationship。  Tenzin is used to hiding her thoughts and feelings, not used to sharing。  Ben is still learning how vampire things work and is still feeling young and vulnerable。  They want to share blood but what will that mean?There are complications because it is in Saba's territory。  Ben & Tenzin plan to find some things Saba wants to "trade" for the bone scroll。  The bone scroll is not originally from her area, and is too dangerous to leave any old place。   Ben is honorable about only "stealing" things from people who originally stole them, to give back to the original owners。 Tenzin is a little more clingy to treasure。   I enjoyed their smart strategies in finding and acquiring items。  Their plans are good with an accurate take on the negotiations and the dangers。  Saba just makes everything more complex than it needs to be。This adventure helps the couple learn more about themselves and their connection。  There is also a path opened for how they will spend some of their time in their future。  I look forward to seeing how that goes and particularly how Ben grows into his new vampire capabilities。 。。。more

A Love Letter to Ethiopia!What can I say?! This book has everything I've come to love about Ben and Tenzin。 From the moment we met each of these characters, their journey has been absolutely crazy and fun。 Maybe not always for each of them, but for the reader?

When Ben and Tenzin bring a new adventure to Gio and Bea, you know you’re in for a ride。 The Bone Scroll is an ancient text that, if found by the wrong person (or vampire) could lead to catastrophic events。 This adventure brings it all。 Danger, sex, mystery, family, and most importantly to Tenzin… GOLD。 Throughout, my favorite dynamic duo work to continue to heal their wounds from the past, be more open with each other, and deal with the secrets that Tenzin has spent centuries keeping。 This book When Ben and Tenzin bring a new adventure to Gio and Bea, you know you’re in for a ride。 The Bone Scroll is an ancient text that, if found by the wrong person (or vampire) could lead to catastrophic events。 This adventure brings it all。 Danger, sex, mystery, family, and most importantly to Tenzin… GOLD。 Throughout, my favorite dynamic duo work to continue to heal their wounds from the past, be more open with each other, and deal with the secrets that Tenzin has spent centuries keeping。 This book is truly a phenomenal addition to the Elemental family。 。。。more

Let me say first that I am not a Benzin shipper。 If this book had only been a story about Ben's and Tenzin's relationship I would not have read it。 But I knew that any book Ms。 Hunter writes has a lot more to offer; so I requested an ARC。 And I am very happy that I did。 The Bone Scroll is an amazing story!

I also enjoyed the lesson on Africa's history and culture。 A lot of it I remembered from my school days but I also learned a lot about the more current conditions in Africa and especially Ethiopia。 Reading this book was not just fun but also educational。 It's just too bad that this is the end of Elemental Legacy。 Or maybe it isn't。 Only the future will tell。 。。。more

I was fortunate to receive a copy of The Bone Scroll。 I can't say enough about this book。 Thank You Elizabeth for making me feel like I was right in Ethiopia with everyone。 The details made me feel like I was right there with Ben and Tenzin。 The Bone Scroll takes place in Ethiopia。 When Tenzin find out about the Bone Scroll, she decides they need to go and find it before it lands in the hands of the wrong person。 The Bone Scroll is an ancient artifact that is very powerful and in the wrong hands I was fortunate to receive a copy of The Bone Scroll。 I can't say enough about this book。 Thank You Elizabeth for making me feel like I was right in Ethiopia with everyone。 The details made me feel like I was right there with Ben and Tenzin。 The Bone Scroll takes place in Ethiopia。 When Tenzin find out about the Bone Scroll, she decides they need to go and find it before it lands in the hands of the wrong person。 The Bone Scroll is an ancient artifact that is very powerful and in the wrong hands is could be dangerous。 So with the help of Chloe, Gio B, Sadia, Dema and a few others they all go to Ethiopia on this hunt for the relic。 I have to say that the journey to find the Bone Scroll was just as important as finding the scroll。 It was a journey for Ben and Tenzin to finally understand what they mean to each other。 When in Ethiopia, they are on Saba's turf and it makes you wonder what part she has played in the hunt for the scroll。 I just love Tenzin and Ben and all the adventures they have shared over the years。 And I wonder how many more shiny objects can Tenzin find in the future, and what crazy adventures they will go on together。 。。。more

Elizabeth Hunter's final book in the Elemental Legacy series, The Bone Scroll, is one for the record books! I was fortunate to receive an ARC copy。 This is a completely spoiler-free review。 In this most recent Ben and Tenzin adventure, Ms。 Hunter gives us a deep dive into her extravagant mind and proves that she is the MASTER of the long game。 So many threads were unanswered after Dawn Caravan that I wasn't sure one more book would be enough。 This book is beautifully imaginative, with plot line Elizabeth Hunter's final book in the Elemental Legacy series, The Bone Scroll, is one for the record books! I was fortunate to receive an ARC copy。 This is a completely spoiler-free review。 In this most recent Ben and Tenzin adventure, Ms。 Hunter gives us a deep dive into her extravagant mind and proves that she is the MASTER of the long game。 So many threads were unanswered after Dawn Caravan that I wasn't sure one more book would be enough。 This book is beautifully imaginative, with plot lines so long in the making only a vampire could remember them all。 Ms。 Hunter answers all of our questions with ablomb in this final book of the series, while still leaving plenty of room for potential spin offs in the future。 Every time I open an Elizabeth Hunter novel, it feels like I'm visiting cherished family members who live halfway around the globe。 Her world building using some of the most beautiful places across the world is unmatched。 I can't get enough of Ben and Tenzin! We've watched Ben grow from a street savvy tween into a powerhouse of a young man, with Tenzin always being a constant in his life。 Tenzin is a ruthless survivor who learns to love another more than she loves her pride and independence。 The pair are magic on the pages- no other characters throughout my lifetime have ever been more endeared to me than these two and their extended families。 I'm sad to see this arc conclude, but am hopeful that Ms。 Hunter will grace us with their presence in future books! If you haven't read the other books in the Elemental Legacy series, do NOT start with The Bone Scroll! You will cheat yourself of the incredible journey the reach this conclusion, and will misunderstand exactly how complex this storyline has been。 Do yourself a favor and go all the way back to the beginning of the Elemental series, starting with A Hidden Fire and read through。 If you like vampire romance or mysteries, this series will keep you engaged。 Fans of K。 F。 Breene, Shannon Mayer, C。 N。 Crawford, Kelly St。 Clare, and more will find something to love in The Bone Scroll。 。。。more
