DAUGHTER OF SMOKE AND BONE

Death and resurrection are central: soldiers die and return, Madrigal is executed, and Karou learns her chimaera family has died.

Includes descriptions of battle injuries, teeth harvesting, and physical trauma.

Contains some moderate language consistent with a young adult novel.

Angels, seraphim, resurrection, and supernatural moral conflict are important, but they function as fantasy mythology rather than real-world religious practice.

Karou and Akiva’s relationship is central, involving attraction, past-life love, an affair, emotional intimacy, and complicated separation.

Dark creatures, cursed figures, attacks, pursuit, war, execution, and the death of Karou’s family create sustained frightening tension.

A past affair and romantic relationship are mentioned; the supplied material indicates limited sexual detail rather than explicit scenes.

Occasional references to drinking in social settings, not glamorized.

Repeated attacks, sword fights, battles, pursuit, forced confrontations, and a long-running seraphim–chimaera war are central.
