This end to the trilogy took a bit longer to get into than the previous books. Rebellion kicked into full swing. Things were wrapped up as best they could be.
A great sequel to the first in the trilogy - think I liked it more than the first, in fact. A smart and interesting continuation of the series. Recommended to those interested in an enticing fantasy world.
First fantasy book I'd read in a while. A good point for re-entry into the genre. Storyline unlike others. Eastern-esque elements very effective at enticing the reader into the exoticism and colourfulness of the world. Took some time to get into, but overall an enjoyable read.

This last volume is strongly focused on the main character, Amani, and we can see how much she has grown over the course of the trilogy. After their long separation, it was great to see Amani and Jin back together again. While all characters don’t make to the end, I thought the author handled everything as realistically as she could considering she was writing about rebellion, battles and magical Djinn. In this book, the desert was very important and the reader can almost feel the heat and sandy dryness.
Although this last book started off slow, with the alliance being trapped in a city and many of the most important characters captured but once they got out the pace picked up and we were awarded with lots of action. Overall I loved following these characters and I enjoyed this YA series.… (meer)
