I don't know if you've ever heard it, but the song 'Blinding' and 'Cosmic Love' by Florence and the Machine just reminded me so much of Shadow and Bone and Siege and Storm that I kind of couldn't believe it's perfectness... Or maybe I'm just in that withdr

Thanks for the kind words. I’m so glad you enjoyed the books!

I love Florence + the Machine and both of those songs featured prominently in my inspiration playlists. ("Cosmic Love" is a big part of the reason the first book even got finished.)

Here’s a link to the Shadow and Bone playlist. (The Gathering Dark was the original UK title.) Also, some mini character playlists.

And here’s my Siege and Storm playlist.

A lot of the songs on my current Ruin and Rising playlist actually came from fanmixes readers have put up in the tag
