Reading so many YA novels, some of the themes and writing styles can really kind of blend together to feel like one large book. I finally got around to picking this one up and it both went as I expected and I was surprised I enjoyed it! I’ve had SNOW LIKE ASHES on my TBR for forever (I think quite literally four years) but I had tried the audio and didn’t like the narrator so I decided to wait until I was ready to read the print copy. But the mission doesn’t go as planned, and Meira soon finds herself thrust into a world of evil magic and dangerous politics – and ultimately comes to realize that her destiny is not, never has been, her own. Finally, she’s scaling towers, fighting enemy soldiers, just as she’s always dreamed she would.
So when scouts discover the location of the ancient locket that can restore Winter’s magic, Meira decides to go after it herself. Training to be a warrior-and desperately in love with her best friend, and future king, Mather - she would do anything to help her kingdom rise to power again. Orphaned as an infant during Winter’s defeat, Meira has lived her whole life as a refugee, raised by the Winterians’ general, Sir. Now, the Winterians’ only hope for freedom is the eight survivors who managed to escape, and who have been waiting for the opportunity to steal back Winter’s magic and rebuild the kingdom ever since. Sixteen years ago the Kingdom of Winter was conquered and its citizens enslaved, leaving them without magic or a monarch. Sara Raasch's debut fantasy is a lightning-fast tale of loyalty, love, and finding one's destiny.Title: Snow Like Ashes (Snow Like Ashes #1)įind it on the web: Buy from Amazon // GoodreadsĪ heartbroken girl.
