Read the explosive New York Times bestselling debut that’s captivated readers worldwide. Set to be a major motion picture, An Ember in the Ashes is the book everyone is talking about.

What if you were the spark that could ignite a revolution?

For years Laia has lived in fear. Fear of the Empire, fear of the Martials, fear of truly living at all. Born as a Scholar, she’s never had much of a choice.

For Elias it’s the opposite. He has seen too much on his path to becoming a Mask, one of the Empire’s elite soldiers. With the Masks’ help the Empire has conquered a continent and enslaved thousands of Scholars, all in the name of power.

When Laia’s brother is taken she must force herself to help the Resistance, the only people who have a chance of saving him. She must spy on the Commandant, ruthless overseer of Blackcliff Academy. Blackcliff is the training ground for Masks and the very place that Elias is planning to escape. If he succeeds, he will be named deserter. If found, the punishment will be death.

But once Laia and Elias meet, they find that their destinies are intertwined and that their choices will change the fate of the Empire.

In the ashes of a broken world one person can make a difference. One voice in the dark can be heard. The price of freedom is always high and this time that price might demand everything, even life itself.

Prepare for the jaw-dropping finale of Sabaa Tahir's beloved New York Times bestselling An Ember in the Ashes fantasy series, and discover: Who will survive the storm?

Picking up just a few months after A Reaper at the Gates left off…

The long-imprisoned jinn are on the attack, wreaking bloody havoc in villages and cities alike. But for the Nightbringer, vengeance on his human foes is just the beginning.

At his side, Commandant Keris Veturia declares herself Empress, and calls for the heads of any and all who defy her rule. At the top of the list? The Blood Shrike and her remaining family.

Laia of Serra, now allied with the Blood Shrike, struggles to recover from the loss of the two people most important to her. Determined to stop the approaching apocalypse, she throws herself into the destruction of the Nightbringer. In the process, she awakens an ancient power that could lead her to victory – or to an unimaginable doom.

And deep in the Waiting Place, the Soul Catcher seeks only to forget the life – and love – he left behind. Yet doing so means ignoring the trail of murder left by the Nightbringer and his jinn. To uphold his oath and protect the human world from the supernatural, the Soul Catcher must look beyond the borders of his own land. He must take on a mission that could save – or destroy – all that he knows.

The sequel to the explosive New York Times bestselling debut An Ember in the Ashes, that’s captivated readers worldwide.

A Torch Against the Night takes readers into the heart of the Empire as Laia and Elias fight their way north to liberate Laia’s brother from the horrors of Kauf Prison. Hunted by Empire soldiers, manipulated by the Commandant, and haunted by their pasts, Laia and Elias must outfox their enemies and confront the treacherousness of their own hearts.

In the city of Serra, Helene Aquilla finds herself bound to the will of the Empire’s twisted new leader, Marcus. When her loyalty is questioned, Helene finds herself taking on a mission to prove herself — a mission that might destroy her, instead.

The highly anticipated third book in Sabaa Tahir's New York Times bestselling Ember Quartet.

Beyond the Empire and within it, the threat of war looms ever larger.

The Blood Shrike, Helene Aquilla, is assailed on all sides. Emperor Marcus, haunted by his past, grows increasingly unstable, while the Commandant capitalizes on his madness to bolster her own power. As Helene searches for a way to hold back the approaching darkness, her sister's life and the lives of all those in the Empire hang in the balance.

Far to the east, Laia of Serra knows the fate of the world lies not in the machinations of the Martial court, but in stopping the Nightbringer. But while hunting for a way to bring him down, Laia faces unexpected threats from those she hoped would aid her, and is drawn into a battle she never thought she'd have to fight.

And in the land between the living and the dead, Elias Veturius has given up his freedom to serve as Soul Catcher. But in doing so, he has vowed himself to an ancient power that will stop at nothing to ensure Elias's devotion – even at the cost of his humanity.

Die Welt versinkt im Chaos - der Imperator ist tot, die machthungrige Keris Veturia hat sich zur neuen Herrscherin ernannt, und die so lange versklavten Dschinn sinnen auf Rache. Laia betrauert immer noch den Verlust von Elias, doch ihr Wunsch nach Gerechtigkeit ist ungebrochen. Deshalb schließt sie sich mit Helena dem Kampf gegen das Regime an. Währenddessen wird Elias von den Toten immer mehr auf ihre Seite gezogen. Doch um die Lebenden zu schützen, muss er das Zwischenreich noch einmal verlassen. Vor ihm liegt eine Mission mit ungewissem Ausgang: Es droht die Zerstörung der Welt. Aber es gibt auch noch die Hoffnung auf Rettung. Und wenn diese gelingt, hat sogar seine Liebe zu Laia eine Zukunft ...

Quem vai sobreviver à tempestade?

Um céu além da tempestade é o devastador volume final da aclamada série Uma chama entre as cinzas. A pré-venda acompanha um conjunto de marcadores da série, um pôster da personagem Laia e um saquinho porta-livros exclusivo.

Em Um céu além da tempestade, após ficarem mil anos aprisionados, os djinns partem para o ataque, dizimando vilarejos e cidades. Mas, para o Portador da Noite, a vingança contra os humanos é apenas o começo.

Ao seu lado, Keris Veturia se declara imperatriz e ameaça de morte todos aqueles que a desafiarem. No topo da lista estão a Águia de Sangue e o que resta de sua família.

Laia de Serra, agora aliada da Águia de Sangue, luta para se recuperar da perda das duas pessoas mais importantes de sua vida. Determinada a impedir o apocalipse que se aproxima, ela se lança à destruição do Portador da Noite. No processo, desperta um poder ancestral que pode levá-la à vitória — ou a uma tragédia inimaginável.

E, nas profundezas do Lugar de Espera, o Apanhador de Almas busca apenas esquecer a vida — e o amor — que deixou para trás. No entanto, fazer isso significa ignorar a trilha de assassinatos deixada pelo Portador da Noite e seus djinns. Para manter seu juramento e proteger o mundo humano do sobrenatural, o Apanhador de Almas deve olhar para além das fronteiras de sua terra. E assumir uma missão que pode salvar — ou destruir — tudo o que ele conhece.

Wo Leben ist, ist Hoffnung

Das Martialenimperium steht am Abgrund: Imperator Marcus überzieht das Land mit dem Blut der Unschuldigen, während Blutgreif Helena diese zu schützen versucht. Weit im Osten weiß Laia, dass sie den Nachtbringer aufhalten muss, und das ohne Elias. Denn Elias ist nun als Seelenfänger an die Zwischenstatt, das Geisterreich, gebunden. Dazu verdammt, einer uralten Macht bedingungslos zu dienen - auch wenn dies bedeutet, die Frau aufzugeben, die er liebt.

La trepidante aventura de #LaiayElias no ha terminado. Una antorcha en las tinieblas es la esperada segunda parte de Una llama entre cenizas.

La mayoría de las personas no son más que destellos en la inmensa oscuridad del tiempo. Pero tú no eres una chispa que se consume en un instante.

Tú eres una antorcha en las tinieblas...
Si te atreves a arder.

Tras el desenlace de la cuarta prueba, Laia y Elías se ven obligados a huir de la ciudad de Serra perseguidos por un ejército de máscaras. Ahora, su única esperanza es Darin, el hermano de Laia, cuyos conocimientos sobre el acero sérrico son la clave para el futuro de los académicos. Pero Darin se encuentra encerrado en la prisión de Kauf, la más inexpugnable y peligrosa de todo el imperio. A pesar del riesgo que supone, Laia está decidida a liberar a su hermano y Elias resuelto a seguir a su lado, aunque ello suponga renunciar a su propia libertad.

Juntos tendrán que luchar a cada paso para llegar a su destino y burlar a todos sus enemigos: el cruel Comandante, los soldados del Imperio, el sádico guardián de Kauf, y sobre todo, a Helene Aquilla, sometida a la voluntad de Marcus, el retorcido nuevo líder del Imperio. La que una vez fue amiga y compañera tendrá que hacer frente a una misión tan clara como indeseada: encontrar al traidor Elias Veturius y a su compañera... y matarlos a los dos.
