A Torch Against the Night takes readers into the heart of the Empire as Laia and Elias fight their way north to liberate Laia’s brother from the horrors of Kauf Prison. Hunted by Empire soldiers, manipulated by the Commandant, and haunted by their pasts, Laia and Elias must outfox their enemies and confront the treacherousness of their own hearts.
In the city of Serra, Helene Aquilla finds herself bound to the will of the Empire’s twisted new leader, Marcus. When her loyalty is questioned, Helene finds herself taking on a mission to prove herself—a mission that might destroy her, instead.
An Ember in the Ashes was absolutely amazing (highly recommend). Been waiting on this sequel for what seems like FOREVER. Can’t August get here sooner?
Thoughts on An Ember in the Ashes?
I keep seeing this in people’s BEA book hauls and it just makes me so excited for this book! I loved An Ember in the Ashes and am glad that it is a duology so we don’t have to wait another year to get the conclusion book.

I really like the duology trend (also see it with Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo). Trilogies are great but if a story can be summed up in 2 books, then so be it! Makes those 2 books that much better. 🙂
