The thrilling conclusion to an epic fantasy about a throne cruelly stolen and a girl who must fight to take it back for her people. Princess Theodosia was a prisoner in her own country for a decade. Renamed the Ash Princess, she endured relentless abuse and ridicule from the Kaiser and his court. But though she wore a crown of ashes, there is fire in Theo’s blood. As the rightful heir to the Astrean crown, it runs in her veins. And if she learned nothing else from her mother, she learned that a Queen never cowers. Now free, with a misfit army of rebels to back her, Theo must liberate her enslaved people and face a terrifying new enemy: the new Kaiserin. Imbued with a magic no one understands, the Kaiserin is determined to burn down anyone and everything in her way. The Kaiserin’s strange power is growing stronger, and with Prinz Søren as her hostage, there is more at stake than ever. Theo must learn to embrace her own power if she has any hope of standing against the girl she once called her heart’s sister.

They either are passive, resigned and damaged like many of the slaves. They have an ongoing, "never give up" attitude like Heron, Elpis, Blaise, Artamesia, or they try to endear themselves to their captors - make themselves indispensable, such as Ion.

A fantastic end to an amazing trilogy! I never expected to fall in love with this story, these characters, and this world as much as I did. Of all the YA fantasy series I've read over the past year, this is the finale I looked forward to the most, and it definitely delivered. Laura Sebastian continues to use this story to explore thought-provoking topics echoed throughout the trilogy, including morality in times of war and the idea that no person can be categorized simply as good or evil. Theo is my resilient, fierce queen who reclaims her power and finds her voice with the help of the most lovable entourage you could ask for in a supporting YA cast. Magic, sword fights, romance, deep friendships, cliffhangers, a complex villain, a heroine that makes you want to cheer out loud... this trilogy has it all. By no means was this book perfect, as some of the plot in Ember Queen was predictable and there were a couple of (smaller) loose ends I would've liked to have seen tied up; however, these elements were easy to overlook with what this book accomplished regarding characters, worldbuilding, story, stakes, and just...pretty much everything. I will miss Theo and her crew, but it comforts me to know I can always go back and reread her story in the hopes of learning something new and falling more in love with the series every time.

"I died the Queen of Peace, and peace died with me...But you are the Queen of Flame and Fury, and you will set the world on fire." What a SATISFYING end to the series! It's so criminally underrated and for the life of me, I can't understand why! It deserves to sit among the ranks of the Remnant Chronicles and the Winner's Curse trilogy in terms of brilliant YA political fantasy trilogies!

"I died the Queen of Peace, and peace died with me...But you are the Queen of Flame and Fury, and you will set the world on fire." What a SATISFYING end to the series! It's so criminally underrated and for the life of me, I can't understand why! It deserves to sit among the ranks of the Remnant Chronicles and the Winner's Curse trilogy in terms of brilliant YA political fantasy trilogies! And for all the reviews that complained of the pacing...did we read the same book? It seemed to be rather similar to the pacing in both Ash Princess and Lady Smoke , so nothing out of the ordinary. If there's going to be political intrigue, it's natural to have a balance between action and politics , battles and betrayals . And personally, those are my favourite types of fantasies to read!!! Theo was her badarse, strategic self, willing to do anything for her country and her people , no matter if she had to sacrifice her own happiness to get it. I'm also pleased that - with the exception of one character :((( - all of my babies made it out alive . So often, authors kill off secondary characters senselessly, when there are other, completely obvious solutions . I was sad that Søren was a " dude in distress ," as usual, for a chunk of the book, but he ultimately rejoined the fray and the whole band got back together! I love when my favourite characters all work together , rather than authors separating them for the majority the novel. Part of the reason we love these characters are for their relationships and banter WITH EACH OTHER , so I prefer them together, rather than apart, and Laura Sebastian definitely did that here. So, why didn't I rate this 5-stars? This trilogy, as a whole, is a solid 4-star read ...mainly because, while it's extremely well-written and compulsively readable...it also doesn't bring anything new to the genre, per se. It's enjoyable , but not necessarily innovative . It's page turning , yet simultaneously predictable . That's not to say I didn't love it , but it still needed that extra * something * to a get a five-star rating from me, which it didn't deliver. Regardless, I still consider this as one of my favourite YA trilogies and I'm so thankful to the author that she came through in the end and gave me everything that I wanted with this finale. If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend that you do so soon!!! :D I can't wait for Laura Sebastian's next series!

This book was SO DAMN SLOW. I didn’t think I’d ever get to the big battle. And once I did, I kept falling asleep during it. Took me three days just to read the ending. That’s how blah it was. I read this series strictly for Soren, Art, and Heron. They are the only reason this book didn’t get 1 star. Queen Theo and her weird relationship with Blaise was annoying the entire series and continued to be so through this. There it is. That’s the series. No need for you to read it now, as none of the othe

"I died the Queen of Peace, and peace died with me... But you are the Queen of Flame and Fury, and you will set the world on fire."
After taking control of the fire mine, Theodosia and her army need to find a way to gain more fighters, take control of the capital, and do it quickly before the Kaiserin realizes that Theo is not dead and that her army continues to march towards the capital. After spending two weeks in the depth of the fire mine, Theo now has new powers and abilities that will for sure help her fight against Cress, but that can also put her life in danger. The pace is good, and there is a balance between politics and action. The chapters are short too and I found that it made it even easier to read the book. Theo and her small army need to plan a sound strategy in order to defeat the Kalovaxians that have the advantage of number and experience. We can see their planning and everything that goes wrong with their plans, but also the fights and action scenes.
“There’s no shame in breaking,” I tell him. “Gods know I did often enough. You just have to put yourself back together again.”
I liked that this book explored topics such as sacrificing a few for the many, and the overall morality during times of war. Theo has some tough decisions to make, and she had to continue putting the fate of Astrea first if she wanted to be a worthy queen. That means putting Astrea before the lives of people she loves, or before her own life. While being young and somewhat untested Theo was still able to be logical and rational, and also willing to listen to the people helping her. She was almost too good at planning logical attack plans? I mean, she has no war experience besides when her country was invaded 10 years ago, but she has sound and good strategies... I was impressed, and a part of me found that maybe she was a little too good at that, but in the end, it did not matter really. The book was still great, and she has more experienced allies to help her plan, so I'll just say that she was a really good strategist thanks to them.
“There’s no shame in reaching your limits, Theo,” he says, using a small gust of air to invigorate the weak fire into a full blaze. “It means you’ve given something your all.”
Theo also grew a lot since the first book, and while I was not her biggest fan in the first book, I really love who she became throughout the adventure. We can really see her growth in this book, and see how she is trying to adjust to her new role as leader of the army, and queen of Astrea, and how resilient and determined she is. I have to say though that the final confrontation between Cress and Theo could have been better handled. Heron has the capacity to render himself ad others invisible, yet Theo takes the time to speak with Cress, to listen to her foolish demands, and to try to find a way around it. Wouldn’t it have been much simpler for Heron to become invisible and kill Cress while Theo was distracting her? I am still very happy with the way it turned out, and some loose ends were finally tied, but I think they could have used a more logical approach as a group. The ending is full of action, but then the epilogue does not really show us an "after". It's more of a conclusion to the final confrontation, but I would have liked to know more about how each remaining character went on with their life after the war. It's a minor detail, but it still bugs me, because the characters talked about their plans for the "after", but we don't get to see if they will be able to follow their plans or not. I was hoping for a more satisfying epilogue.
“Yana Crebesti,” I murmur against his lips. “No matter what comes.”
I like the way Theo and Soren's relationship evolved in this final book, and I am very satisfied, but I would have liked to see a little bit more of Soren, and more of them together. I completely understand that they are in the middle of a war, but Theo spent almost no time with Soren since the first book, and I felt that without this time together, the development of their relationship was a little less believable (while still being enjoyable). Objectively, this series is similar to many other YA series, and it brings nothing really new or unexpected, but it is quick-paced, full of politics and action, and a real page-turner and I enjoyed it very much.

I don't know. I didn't really have any expectations. Ah well, everyone knows the third book is never as good as the first 2. I finally got this over with and now I can read Chain of Gold!

Update: Lowered a star, because if I hold no good feelings towards this book then why is it 2*? I barely have any 1* books so I'm working on correcting my rating system. Was I disappointed? I don't know. I didn't really have any expectations. Ah well, everyone knows the third book is never as good as the first 2. I finally got this over with and now I can read Chain of Gold! "I died the Queen of Peace, and peace died with me," my mother told me. "But you are the Queen of Flame and Fury, and you will set their world on fire." What can I say? I feel like this is just the average YA fantasy trope-heavy next book in a series that starts off brilliant.....and just kind of goes down. Ember Queen strongly resembles the sequel to Snow Like Ashes ( Ice Like Fire ), but I gave that a three because the ending redeemed it. I got no redemption from this book, no matter what the reviews said. This book is as dull as it gets. There was no plot. Okay well maybe there was, but it was kinda boring, kinda interesting at the same time. Laura Sebastian could have done something with this book, but instead it felt like she was just writing to meet a deadline because there wasn't any intrigue, any plot-twists, anything. And the romance! wHaT? wHat HaPpeNeD? What I was looking sooo forward to: a reunion of my OTP Soren and Theo!!! :D What I got: I shipped Blaise and Theo instead . because Soren and Theo fell flat . Blaise. The Blaise I used to hate with all my heart because Soren, the crown prince, was obviously a lot better and awwww Soren and Theo was so cute in the other books! Well that went down the drain. Yeah and speaking about Blaise.....LAURA SEBASTIAN YOU DID HIM DIRTY. UNFORGIVABLE. ABSOLUTELY UNFORGIVABLE. Theo treated him like dirt. Hellloooo? You're supposed to be his best friend and actually love him? Where'd the romance go? UGH. He was so irrevelant in this, and set aside by Theo, and I'm sorry, but Blaise was like the only good thing about this book, and even that was ruined. So yeah....my OTP (Soren and Theo) dissolved into nothing for me because of this. YAY And my new ship Blaise and Theo went nowhere. But don't let this review put you off Ash Princess and Lady Smoke , because they really are great fantasy novels, just don't bother with this one . It's not worth the time, unless you're like me and have to know what happens - because this is mildly interesting, don't get me wrong. If you can deal with only that.... :) Even then though. It fell flat and there are a lot better YA fantasy novels you can spend your time reading.
