Ashes of the Sun by Django Wexler
4.0
This book was a roller-coaster ride, in the best kind of way. It was fast-paced and actioned packed. The character's voices were flushed out and the dialog was hilarious. The world is very Star Wars and Final Fantasy inspired, which are two of my favorite franchises. Obviously I loved it.
If you enjoyed series like A Chorus of Dragons or the Ninth Rain you'll definitely like Ashes of the Sun.
The two reasons this wasn't a 5 star is because it was nonstop. Following two POVs in constantly action was bit exhausting. The second reason is I read this via autobook and the narrator really didn't work for me. I felt like they cheapened some of the characters by using tones and accents that didn't match. I already have physical copies of the next two and will continue the trilogy reading eyes only.
Overall, I had a blast with Ashes of the Sun.
