An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir
5.0
Edit: Second time. The action was still as enthralling as the first time and there were still times where the twists in this novel still caught me by surprise. Enjoyed this book just as much as the first time!
This was an amazing fantastic magical tale, filled with so much myth, magic and great action.
The writing was smooth and effortless, creating vivid settings and smooth transitions from such descriptions to the action that took place. I loved the characters and how they were portrayed, even if the romance could be cliche at times there would be a sudden twist in the events that took place to change the dynamics of the relationship to make it something more.
I love the world building and the kind of mythical creatures this author chose to write about.
This book had a fantastic ending, leading nicely into what the second book will be and I can't wait for it.
