Prepare for the jaw-dropping finale of Sabaa Tahir's beloved New York
Times bestselling An Ember in the Ashes fantasy series, and discover:
Who will survive the storm?
Picking up just a few months after A Reaper at the Gates left off...
The long-imprisoned jinn are on the attack, wreaking bloody havoc in
villages and cities alike. But for the Nightbringer, vengeance on his
human foes is just the beginning.
By his side, Commandant Keris Veturia declares herself Empress, and
calls for the heads of any and all who defy her rule. At the top of the
list? The Blood Shrike and her remaining family.
Laia of Serra, now allied with the Blood Shrike, struggles to recover
from the loss of the two people most important to her. Determined to
stop the approaching apocalypse, she throws herself into the destruction
of the Nightbringer. In the process, she awakens an ancient power that
could lead her to victory--or to an unimaginable doom.
And deep in the Waiting Place, the Soul Catcher seeks only to forget the
life--and love--he left behind. Yet doing so means ignoring the trail of
murder left by the Nightbringer and his jinn. To uphold his oath and
protect the human world from the supernatural, the Soul Catcher must
look beyond the borders of his own land. He must take on a mission that
could save--or destroy--all that he knows.
