Summary
Set in a terrifyingly brutal Rome-like world, An Ember in the Ashes is an epic fantasy debut about an orphan fighting for her family and a soldier fighting for his freedom. It’s a story that’s literally burning to be told.

LAIA is a Scholar living under the iron-fisted rule of the Martial Empire. When her brother is arrested for treason, Laia goes undercover as a slave at the empire’s greatest military academy in exchange for assistance from rebel Scholars who claim that they will help to save her brother from execution.
 
ELIAS is the academy’s finest soldier— and secretly, its most unwilling. Elias is considering deserting the military, but before he can, he’s ordered to participate in a ruthless contest to choose the next Martial emperor.
 
When Laia and Elias’s paths cross at the academy, they find that their destinies are more intertwined than either could have imagined and that their choices will change the future of the empire itself.

One of my fav books of all time. World building is done well and the characters are well developed for the first book of a series. There is a little bit of romance, which I usually prefer more romance to be involved in the plot, but I was sucked in by the writing style and storyline that I didn’t mind too much. Narrator does a good job of playing multiple characters while not being monotone or too dramatic. Highly recommend for a fun well-written fantasy read.

A fascinating interweaving of two people that at first seems trivial until it all come together perfectly.

The narration was really well done, by both the female and male readers/actors. They did more than just read. They brought the story to life with their different voices, and the emotion with which they did their parts. I liked the story too, and the thought-provoking nature of this society's foundations.
