An Ember in the Ashes
by Sabaa Tahir
adventurous
dark
tense
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
No
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
The characters go through tremendous violence and yet have no trauma response. They just kinda keep going along and acting the same way they did before. That's not very believable and therefore distracting. It seemed like the violence was overdone.
The plot was not easily predictable and the author set up some things for future books that I'm interested to see play out. I'll definitely be finishing the series.
