A Reaper at the Gates An Ember in the Ashes Sabaa Tahir Books

All the YA writers seem to be amping up the 'gruesome'. Too much blood, too much terror, just too much war and horribleness. It is all-consuming. This book just didn't deliver the further character development and emotional buy-in of the prior two books.

A Reaper at the Gates An Ember in the Ashes Sabaa Tahir Books Reviews

I am still waiting for Helene and Harper to be together. I'd like to see Musa get his wife back. Oh, yeah, why aren't Laia and Elias together?! The way this book ended, I'm expecting at least one more...and I really need Laia and Elias to end up together.
I know that a good story puts its characters through unspeakable terrors, but there was very little in this book that didn’t make me sad. Which in turn made it hard to read. With that being said I didn’t give up because Sabba is a master storyteller and I know she is leading me on this journey for a reason, and I will definitely be reading the next book when it comes out. Her world building and characters are rich and fully developed allowing me to feel like I’m right there among them.
Here's my review for A Reaper at the Gates by Sabaa Tahir, the third but not final book in An Ember in the Ashes series. I love how the book opens with the Nightbringer’s point of view! The author gives us insight into the kingdom’s history and at the present time, the scholars are being extinguished but we see that in the past the scholars have done the same thing to the Jinn, the Nightbringer’s people. Very interesting and so much like the harsh reality we live in. Elias’ fate and Laia’s future hold mystery. Helene, as the Blood Shrike, stands steadfastly by her sister Livia’s side. Livia has a fortunate surprise that could change the Empire for the better. Learning more about Keris and her past was fascinating as was learning more about Laia’s mother’s story. Elias gives up everything to help others because of his kindness and tremendous strength. Reaper at the Gates hurts my heart but builds distant hope for the amazing characters, 5 stars!
Wow, this one was really good and I couldn't put it down. I wish I could do 4.5 stars, just because I feel like this book had less of the characters together and more there own separate thing. I am however not happy with 'how' the book ended, it was soul crushing and I am really hoping for a happier sequel to this one. It just seemed like every bad thing that could happen did and it was super unavoidable. Elia's thing was heartbreaking and hopefully (just like the last book) he can come back to himself a bit. Hoping Helena really shows more emotion in the next, it really feels like she wants to here but she doesn't. I liked it all in all.
Loved the first book of this series, Ember in the Ashes. Unfortunately, book two was not as good, neither is book three, and with the ending, sounds like she plans a book 4. She probably should have tightened up book 2 and 3 rather than stretching for a 4th book.
How do I convey the beautifully succinct writing by the venerable Mrs. Sabaa Tahir without gushing incoherently?!? I'll try my best... here goes...

If you haven't already started this series I HIGHLY recommend you do so immediately. It is an affirmation of Hope and ceaseless Possibility in the face of dire, desperate circumstances... a theme that is extremely poignant due to the chaotic/ uncertain times we currently live in. From the very start we are dropped off right into the chaos where A Torch Against the Night left off. The pacing was perfect. There were twists and betrayals and bloodshed... Oh My!!

The characters were rich and nuanced. They felt like old friends/nemesis you have grown to love and love to hate. They were crafted magnificently. True to the dichotomy of real life personas, each one was depicted as varying shades of grey. I loathe characters that are drawn either purely White or starkly Black... BRING ON THE GRADIENTS BABY!!! Mrs. Tahir manages to make you feel empathy and compassion for the antagonists (after seeing what lead them down the path toward hatred and wickedness). I felt conflicted (as I'm sure you will see) as to who was the "victim" and who the evildoers...for all had claim to both... and really, isn't that the mark of a well written, truly visceral hero/villain?? The multiple POVs worked. They played off of the next person's arc so skillfully that I was saddened each time a chapter came to an end. Elias's role, on the other hand, felt like fodder... or the sticky icky pie filler that could have easily been left out (if not for his usefulness in the last quarter of the book). It felt like he was used as a means to move things along in places that needed a quick plot progression That was a little sad since he was, and should continue to be, an integral player...imho.

This installment was multifaceted. It boasted nefarious jinn, mischiviously violent ghosts, seers/Augurs, a smattering of warlocks, a tiny dallop of romance, twisty reveals and LOADS of bloody vengeance. What else can you possibly want in a book?? It's a gritty book in a heart wrenching series and I love every single word of it!! I will continue to shout its praise from the mountaintops.... mountaintops I say and I truly, deeply, infatically believe you will too. Go ahead, prove me wrong, I'd love to read all about it.

~Enjoy
The first book I loved and couldn't wait for the second book. Im not sure why the book deviated from Elias, Helena and Keris. They really made book one an excellent read. See where Im going with this, I couldn't stand Laia and her storyline. I just kind of skim through her chapters and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen with Elias and Helena. Personally, I would have love to read some chapters on Keris and Marcus. Anyway, if there's a book four I don't think I will be buying it especially at the $8-$10 price range. 4 stars are for the first two books carrying the last book.
