We Free the Stars

Very good book arrived in perfect condition which is very rare to see when ordering books from Amazon

It’s perfect

The cover of the book is breathtaking

I could not put the book down... Book two came in strong from the start and it did not stop till the end... There were times I was holding my breath while reading cause the scenes were so engaging & intense. The whole concept of how things are not always black and white or in this case dark and light, there is generally a middle ground the grey area is very well depicted. The thing that I liked the most about this book was how the story did justice to all its characters especially its badass female characters. We got to see the darkness within Zafira win and create chaos, we saw a side of Nasir that was ready to trust others & protect others, something that he himself thought had been tortured out of him. We were able to see the doubts in Altair's sparkling eyes cause in the end it was his blood that he was fighting against. Zafir & Nasir's whole journey of enemies to Habibi to Hayati to Roohi...*chefs kiss* 🤌 I loved the concept of the Zumra especially cause it depicted the concept of found family. How nobody was ready to give up on the other person cause that's just not what friends do....🥹🥹 After the breathtaking start in We Hunt the Flame, We Free the Stars delivers a powerful conclusion to the Sands of Arawiya duology.

The book arrived a little damaged :(

The battle on Sharr is over. The dark forest has fallen. Despite the fact that Altair is in captivity, Zafira, Nasir, and Kifah are heading toward Sultan's Keep with the intention of completing the plan he started: putting the Sisters of Old's hearts back in each caliphate's minaret and restoring magic to all of Arawiya. The plot reveals how the darkness overthrows the kingdom, about the magic that is in Nasir's blood and how he handles it, as well as about Zafira's struggle with the Jawarat—a darkness that hums with voices and pushes her to the edge of sanity—which she fears unleashing. As the darkness closes in on them much faster, Nasir and Zafira feel themselves falling over one another and can't bear to lose. However, time is running out to achieve their ends, and if order is to be restored, drastic sacrifices will have to be made. I definitely enjoyed this book more than the first one, with lots of magic and mysterious twists and turns. I must admit that the author's linguistic writing was impeccable. The pace was moderate at the first half and at the end it was quite fast. I loved the character development and the growing relationship between Nasir and Zafira. They were absolutely adorable, and the slow burn romance was amazing. There were several interesting side characters but Altair was my favourite, with his strong and hilarious personality. I think there were a lot of elements within it that could have been executed better or just weren't necessary. Overall, it was a great read.

I do not know if the words exist to express what I felt(and am feeling) while turning pages of this book. This will stay with me forevermore. I am swelling with hope, with love and with joy only because of you Hafsah❤️and our Zumra🌻❤️

I am just thankful that destiny made me come across this duology - Sands of Arawiya. You have to read it for yourself, anything about the book will be spoilers for sure. A lot happened yet it didn't feel overwhelming, it was in fact a complete package of romance, fights, drama, adventure! Nasir and Zafira are okay but Altair and Kifah ah these two have my heart for their friendship and intelligence! If book 1 was a 5/5 this is a 10/5 is all I can say. Every character, every detail, every revelation were a chefs kiss. Meticulously written with no lag in the story. Loved it.
