Summary: After the events of the Fourth Trail, Martial soldiers hunt the two fugitives as they flee the city of Serra and undertake a perilous journey through the heart of the Empire.
Laia is determined to break into Kauf - the Empire's most secure and dangerous prison - to save
her brother, who is the key to the Scholar's survival. And Elias is determined to help Laia succeed, even if it means giving up his last chance at freedom.
But dark forces, human and otherworldly, work against
Laia and Elias. The pair must fight every step of the way to outsmart their enemies: the bloodthirsty Emperor Marcus, the merciless Commandant, the sadistic Warden of Kauf, and, most heartbreaking of all, Helene - Elias's former friend and the Empire's newest Blood Shrike.
Bound to Marcus's will, Helene faces a torturous mission of her own - one that might destroy her: find the traitor Elias Veturius and the Scholar slave who helped him escape. . . And kill then both.
Series: #1: An Ember In The Ashes; #3: A Reaper At The Gates
My review: 5/5
Part of me is pissed, part of me is dumbfounded. A Torch Against the Night was amazing with its mind blowing plot twists and incredible and somewhat new setting. The second book dives more into the supernatural world. Laia and Elias' relationship becomes stronger and they become more connected.
