Hero at the Fall by Alwyn Hamilton
5.0

Desert, danger, magic and legends. This stunning trilogy has everything I never knew I was looking for in fantasy YA.

Amani is a rebellious, very human (ish) protagonist who makes mistakes, who does doubt, who does sulk, but then she does things about all that. She's a hero who never stops fighting. Alongside her is the brilliant Shahzad, the general's daughter whose mind is sharper than her sword.

With a diverse and wonderful cast from the desert and surrounding lands alike, the REBEL trilogy is a maze of legends and wonder, lit by very determined, endlessly strong rebels, all fighting to put their Prince on the throne.
