A Torch Against the Night: 2 (Ember in the Ashes)

Product Information

In this novel, we really come to know Helene Aquilla, coming into contact with not only her family, but also her most private thoughts. Out of all of them, she has been through the worst kind of hell and has had to make the most difficult decisions. As the characters had already been introduced, the story was able to get going quite quickly, and I adored their interactions with each other. I fully enjoyed this book, and would have given it a rating of 5/5 if it hadn't been for its beginning.

Thrilling, captivating and intelligently written, this sequel cemented the status of this series as a 'MUST-READ' so I urge you to read it the first chance you've got.I know they’re not something out of this world and I know the story is not that original, but I don’t care.

Elias - Okay, well, I'm sure you have a good reason for risking both our lives (and countless others) for this mission right? From the hype that surrounded this book, I was super excited to read it, and when it started off with action, I thought oh yay this is going to be one of those fast paced excellent books! When her loyalty is questioned, Helene finds herself taking on a mission to prove herself — a mission that might destroy her, instead.As you can probably tell from this review, I adored the ending, even if the beginning was a little frustrating. There, she spent her time devouring fantasy novels, raiding her brother’s comic book stash, and playing guitar badly. The villains of the world continued to chill me whilst other new additions to the cast left me longing to know more. Most of my issues, such as poorly developed settings and character inconsistency, are overshadowed by the size of this story. I'm reviewing An Ember in the Ashes and a Torch Against the Night together in this review, mostly because I didn't have the energy to rant twice.
