Memories of Ash

“When you have chosen a path, you must walk it with courage.”

Memories of Ash by Intisar Khanani

June 19, 2019 by tillie 2 Comments

Memories of Ash is the second instalment of the Sunbolt Chronicles, a series that I hope goes on forever, but only just till the day I die, so that there will never exist a book in the series that I haven’t read. Memories of Ash meets Hikaru as she is living with Brigit Stormwind in a hidden valley being trained as a secret apprentice.

A few days ago I read J’s review of Memories of Ash, the second book in a new, on-going series of YA fantasy novels.
