The characters were easy to love, and I felt that they had an amazing depth to them. The descriptions felt like the jumped right off of the page, and I became immersed in them. Even the forest of Arz seemed to be a little comforting, despite its cursedness. I felt like I could step right in and know where I was.
The chattering markets, and quietness of Zafira’s home. I loved that I didn’t just get an overall image of what the world might look like, but that readers get to experience many different settings of Arawiya.
It is done in such a compelling way, giving you enough detail relevant to the story, but not dumping a bunch of information at the reader that would make it feel a little disjointed. Some of the first thoughts I had about this book were about the world building. However, an ancient evil has begun to stir, and the artifact may be more dangerous than either of them could have imagined. As war and the forest of the Arz begin to creep upon the kingdom, Zafira is sent on a quest to retrieve an artifact that can restore magic to the kingdom, while Nasir has been sent to retrieve the artifact and kill the Hunter. He’s long since learned to quell his compassion, or risk incurring his father’s wrath. Meanwhile, Nasir is known as the Prince of Death, the loyal assassin of the king, killing anyone who would stand up to or oppose the word of his oppressive and tyrannical father. Should she be discovered as a woman, she’d be stripped of her accomplishments simply because of her gender. In this world, Zafira is a young woman disguising herself as a man known as the Hunter, going into the dark and cursed forest of the Arz to feed the people of her village. We Hunt the Flame is a story set in an ancient Arabian style world called Arawiya. The world of Arawiya will lull you in with it’s dark promise, while giving you hope for the characters to see a better world full of life and magic. Faizal had other books out her writing is addictive.
I read through this in a matter of hours, and found myself wishing that Ms. It’s told with such passionate intent, every word meaningfully woven together into this breathtaking story that will resonate with readers until the very last page. There’s something about We Hunt the Flame that made it impossible for me to put down.
