'Tahir spins a captivating, heart-pounding fantasy' - Us Weekly

Read the explosive New York Times bestselling debut that's captivated readers worldwide. Set to be a major motion picture, An Ember in the Ashes is the book everyone is talking about.

What if you were the spark that could ignite a revolution?

For years Laia has lived in fear. Fear of the Empire, fear of the Martials, fear of truly living at all. Born as a Scholar, she's never had much of a choice.

For Elias it's the opposite. He has seen too much on his path to becoming a Mask, one of the Empire's elite soldiers. With the Masks' help the Empire has conquered a continent and enslaved thousands of Scholars, all in the name of power.

When Laia's brother is taken she must force herself to help the Resistance, the only people who have a chance of saving him. She must spy on the Commandant, ruthless overseer of Blackcliff Academy. Blackcliff is the training ground for Masks and the very place that Elias is planning to escape. If he succeeds, he will be named deserter. If found, the punishment will be death.

But once Laia and Elias meet, they find that their destinies are intertwined and that their choices will change the fate of the Empire.

In the ashes of a broken world one person can make a difference. One voice in the dark can be heard. The price of freedom is always high and this time that price might demand everything, even life itself.

This historical epic is a top pick among young adult and teen fiction, immersing readers in the ancient civilizations of a world on the brink of revolution. An Ember in the Ashes is a testament to the power of resistance and the indomitable spirit of its young protagonists.

For fans of Rebecca Yarros (Onyx Storm), Sarah J. Maas (Queen of Shadows), Holly Black (The Queen of Nothing), Carissa Broadbent (The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King), and Stephanie Garber (A Curse For True Love).
