It is set in a land where there is a hierarchy of classes which determines where people live and what they are allowed to do and what they are subjugated to. The plot had me enthralled from the moment I realised there were trials involving tests for tactics and the mind.

But of course there's more things afoot and as Sylah finds out long buried secrets, she has to decide what kind of future she wants to fight for. Guilt, betrayal, love, loyalty and lots of action accompany Sylah and Anoor’s quests to bring about change - both have their own vision about how to do this (as do others who come to the forefront and add to the peril). This is a read for you.

However, I felt it dragged in the middle, which I cannot explain as there was a lot of plot and character development. What an epic story. The writer did a great job writing this world, in allowing the readers to resonate with the grief, oppression and trauma experienced by the characters and in producing a truly vivid, spellbinding story.

I look forward to reading the next in the series. Overall, I was left feeling it needed something more to make a good read, great. Also, the three different points of view skipped around shortly and sharply within some chapters, becoming disorientating at times.
But where there is oppression, there will always be rebellion. An exciting epic that got better and better as the story unfolded. In addition to the amazing cultures, I liked The Final Strife's three determined female main characters, their complex situations and evolving relationships, and how the plot developed.
"- "I’ve realised a world run by people who think they’re better will never be better for everyone. The histories of its people and intricacies of the politics was phenomenal. Embers are the ruling class in an oppressive three-tier caste system, where everything is based on the colour of blood. Also wanted to take a moment to show my appreciation for books that include glossary of terms, and pictures of runes mentioned in the book and of course a beautiful map.
