The Ashfire King by Chelsea Abdullah
4.25
adventurous emotional inspiring mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I devoured book one in this series and was on the edge of my seat waiting for the sequel. It was well worth the wait! The Ashfire King was an exciting and well constructed next chapter in this trilogy. The story was so intricately built and the weaving storylines came together in such a nice way! 

I loved seeing more of this world and loved jumping between the jinn and human realms. We meet so many fascinating new complex characters, while our other characters continue to shine, which adds rich layers to the overall story. 

If you loved the first book, absolutely pick up the second book. I am now eagerly awaiting the third. I thought that this book was a solid representation of a key second book in a trilogy, the pacing was excellent and the overall story is amazing. 

If you love fantasy this book is a must read! Thank you to the publisher for providing an advanced readers copy via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
