An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Brutal and gorgeous.
In an empire of harsh, martial law, a soldier is no freer than a slave, and both are disposable.
This YA fantasy is lush and epic, with an intense plot, disturbing twists, and strong characters.
The most upsetting part about reading a book by debut novel is that after I adore it, I can’t run out and get my hands on other books by the author. . . yet.
