“[An Ember in the Ashes] thrusts its readers into a world marred by violence and oppression, yet does so with simple prose that can offer moments of loveliness in its clarity. This complexity makes Ember a worthy novel—and one as brave as its characters.”

–The New York Times Book Review

“[A Torch against the night is] Fresh and exciting…Tahir has shown a remarkable talent for penning complex villains.” – A.V. Club

–A.V. Club

“This epic fantasy set in the Martial Empire has it all: danger and violence, secrets and lies, strong characters and forbidden romance and a touch of the supernatural.”

–The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

"Fast-paced, well-structured and full of twists and turns, An Ember in the Ashes is an evocative debut that has left me invested in knowing what happens next.”

–NPR

“Tahir proves to be a master of suspense and a canny practitioner of the cliffhanger, riveting readers’ attention throughout…[An] action-packed, breathlessly paced story.”

–Booklist, Starred Review
