Description

Set in a world teetering on the edge of oppression and rebellion, Sabaa Tahir weaves a tale that plunges readers into the gritty realities of a society ruled by a formidable empire. The story follows Elias, a reluctant soldier trapped within the brutal confines of the Blackcliff Military Academy, and Laia, a fiery young woman motivated by vengeance and resilience.

As they navigate their complex relationship amidst escalating turmoil, their journeys intertwine and lead to alarming revelations. They must confront the weight of their choices, facing their fears while clashing with the authoritarian forces that threaten to crush their spirits. Each character's evolution is marked by their struggles and sacrifices as they fight for freedom and justice in a world defined by tyranny.

With richly developed characters and a suspenseful plot, the narrative explores themes of loyalty, love, and the cost of standing against injustice. Readers find themselves immersed in a haunting world, where the flicker of hope ignites a fierce determination to challenge the darkness. With each page turned, the stakes rise, leaving readers eager to discover the outcomes of this harrowing yet inspiring journey.

I'm going to give this a four out of five. My first time reading this I gave it a three out of five because I literally for some reason just couldn't stay in the book. I couldn't really get into it. But this time around I was enthralled. I was reading every word. I was eating it up and digesting it fully. But I'm not giving it a full 5 out of five just because I feel like there are so many points where like I literally whether it is because I have read the book before or not. I just was like okay anyways like I've seen this happen in so many times in books. I already know it's about to happen. Like there wasn't much to the story/ plot that like had me on the edge of my seat of like. Oh my God didn't expect that to happen but I'm giving it a better rating than last year because I was actually able to sit down cover to cover and enjoy it this time. And I definitely need to go ahead and get the next book.
