I wish the author had given us more insight into the characters after everything they have been through trying to get the rightful heir in the throne.

But I loved it! I related to Cavas way more than Gul… is that a bad thing haha.

I look forward to the future works of the author.

Hunted by the Sky is the first book in this duology, and I definitely recommend them both for some one looking to diversify their fantasy reads.

Overall the series was well done, pacing was pretty good and it kept my interest.

Rising like a storm, the second and final installment to the 'Wrath of Ambar' duology, as you might have guessed is just about perfect as the first book was if not more!

If Hunted by the Sky, made your desi hearts flutter with excitement, it's companion sequel leaves you craving for more

absolutely enthralling!!! don’t have enough south asian-based high fantasy novels and i loved the hindi and urdu words interspersed in the story and the details that really remind me of home <3 plus realistic emotions and a thrilling storyline!!!!

Superficial, felt hollow. Big events occur and yet, the way it’s written feels like nothing special is happening.

A shame because the idea is good, but the execution lacking depth.
