The unofficial cover for Withering to Bones by Wattieza Nieves. It features a dark plant background with lungs in the foreground that are growing roots.Comps are show. The Jasmine Throne by Gasha Suri is comped for its political and emotional weight. Blood and Bone for its themes of systemic oppression and resistance. The marrow thieves for the ecological urgency and mythic resonance.

There is an includes section which highlights: Eco apocalyptic elements, MLM relationship, power as both inheritance and burden, lyrical, and introspective, pros, intimate, character, first storytelling, and literary tone with major backdrop.A blurb is given. “War is on the horizon, and Nahele is the last person that could be capable of facing it. A survivor of a devastating shooting, he lives in a body that no longer folio beats him. Pain weakness, and the creeping presence of a dark curse, follow him wherever he goes, whispering that he is too broken to protect anyone – least of all the siblings that depend on him.

Long buried within Nahele is a Gods given gift, one that the shadows inside him have kept smothered for years. But whenever he is near Ashkii – the infuriatingly, magnetic fellow chief–to–be – those powers start to life again. As violence closes in and old wounds, resurface, he is forced to confront the reality of what leadership demands of him, while Ashkii must face what being a leader truly means rising to the occasion of.

Danger gathers around their clans and Nahele must wrestle with the growing malediction within him. One that could claim him at any moment. With war approaching, and the future clouded by shadow… Love, loyalty, and sacrifice will decide whether he rises as the leader, his people need or becomes the very darkness that destroys them. 

Because some things cannot be carried without breaking. And some choices, once made, cannot be undone.A picture depicting chapter 1 of the novel is shown. The main two characters are of scaring all, but the first paragraph which says, “ April 13, XX35. This godforsaken world, made to witness his own descent into chaos, with all that ever was, and now all that would ever be. Once vibrant with life and beauty, it had been blessed with effortless harmony, untouched by the greed and destruction that now strangled it. What has been a gift upon its creation was now a curse, it’s brilliant slowly suffocated by the weight of its people’s selfish undoing.”

The character on the left is a brown skinned man with long braids, a blue choker, and blue modern – indigenous wear. To the right of him is another man who is taller with long curly hair that is half up in a bun. He is also brown skinned, but lighter. He wears a red beaded necklace with golden adornment. He also wears a green Polynesian style shirt that has a few buttons open at the top.
