Set in a rich, high-fantasy world inspired by ancient Rome, Sabaa Tahir's AN EMBER IN THE ASHES told the story of Laia, a slave fighting for her family, and Elias, a young soldier fighting for his freedom.

Ik weet niet wat het is met de boeken van Sabaa Tahir maar op een of andere reden duurt bij altijd ongelooflijk lang precies vooraleer ik haar boeken heb uitgelezen. Niet dat de boeken slechts zijn integendeel. Maar toch is voor mij moeilijk om in een stuk door haar boeken te lezen. Ik vind dit boek wel net iets beter dan het vorige. Dit keer wordt het boek vanuit drie perspectieven verteld in plaats van twee wat een enorme meerwaarde gaf. Net als het vorige boek komt er avontuur en romantiek aan de pas maar deze keer zijn er ook plottwisten wat maakte dat dit boek spannender was als het vorige en je meer gekluisterd zat aan het boek. Ik wacht vol spanning af naar het vervolg! ( )
