A Chorus of Ashes and Shadows by Melissa Karibian

4.0

A Chorus of Ashes and Shadows picks up 6 months after the events of A Song of Silver and Gold. Kae and Aqeara are preparing for their wedding but the day before an attack on Avalon's harbor disrupts their plans. They soon learn of other similar attacks that occurred in other kingdoms at the same time and know it can only be the work of one person. The crew reassembles to hunt down the culprit and stop them before they get too powerful. 

I really enjoyed this book. Much like the first book, the characters are really where this book shines. I love the found family of pirates and the relationships (both friendships and romances) between the characters. It’s a very fun read. There are definitely things that happen within the plot that are very convenient and at times it feels like the characters get over their preconceived notions a little too easily. The ending packs an emotional punch. Overall, I think this was a good conclusion to this duology and I would recommend both books!
