A Shadow in the Ember by Jennifer Armentrout

In this episode, we deep dive into the first book in the Flesh and Fire prequel series, A Shadow in the Ember by Jennifer Armentrout. Based on the author’s recommended reading order, this romantasy book should be read after the third book in the Blood and Ash series, The Crown of Gilded Bones. We had no idea what to expect when reading this first book in the prequel series, and were quickly consumed by what it all means for the Blood and Ash series. During this episode, we discuss how our minds are blown when we finally learn the identity of the first Maiden, see countless similarities between the primary characters in this book and Poppy and Casteel, why our love for draken only grows when we meet Reaver-butt and baby draken Jadis, why we’re super suspicious of some of the gods, and how much we loved it when Nyktos fulfills his promise. Plus, we attempt to figure out how everything in this book is connected to what’s going on with Poppy and Casteel in the Blood and Ash series, so we have a ton of theories. And, we chat about how ready we are to jump into the next book in the series to see what happens next. Connect with Late Night Reads:Website: https://www.latenightreads.com/Instagram: @latenightreadspodcastTikTok: @latenightreadspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/LateNightReadsPodcast/Threads: @latenightreadspodcastEmail: [email protected]
