AN EMBER IN THE ASHES is a thought-provoking, heart-wrenching and pulse-pounding read. Set in a rich, high-fantasy world with echoes of ancient Rome, it tells the story of a slave fighting for her family and a young soldier fighting for his freedom.
Laia is a slave. Elias is a soldier. Neither is free.
Under the Martial Empire, defiance is met with death. Those who do not vow their blood and bodies to the Emperor risk the execution of their loved ones and the destruction of all they hold dear.
It is in this brutal world, inspired by ancient Rome, that Laia lives with her grandparents and older brother. The family ekes out an existence in the Empire’s impoverished backstreets. They do not challenge the Empire. They’ve seen what happens to those who do.
But when Laia’s brother is arrested for treason, Laia is forced to make a decision. In exchange for help from rebels who promise to rescue her brother, she will risk her life to spy for them from within the Empire’s greatest military academy.
There, Laia meets Elias, the school’s finest soldier—and secretly, its most unwilling. Elias wants only to be free of the tyranny he’s being trained to enforce. He and Laia will soon realize that their destinies are intertwined—and that their choices will change the fate of the Empire itself.

"Lives ruined ,bloodshed." That's all I want to say about this epic book. (my dear lord, after all these years,i still love Veronica and Logan so much:>)
评分在YA这种质量良莠不齐的世界里，能找到一本这种质量的不容易！叛逆小王子和坚强灰姑娘的故事。然后还有特别lame的love triangle，但是我买账。。。
评分Well done
评分在做汉译，快完成了。有点特色的书，技巧方面稍稚嫩，行文很有灵气。这个幻想世界的设定不算多严谨，有些比较狗血的情节。整体上还行吧，结尾挺帅的。喜欢里面的好几位配角，尤其备胎女二号。
