Una llama entre cenizas (An Ember in the Ashes)
TIMES 2020, los 100 mejores libros juveniles de todos los tiempos
Laia es una huérfana que lucha por salvar a su único hermano. Elias es un soldado que lucha por su libertad. Y ambos descubrirán que el Imperio solo puede vencerse desde dentro... #LaiayElias
En un mundo regido por la ley marcial de la Roma Antigua, el precio de la desobediencia es la muerte. Laia y su familia sobreviven en los callejones más pobres, sin cuestionar el orden establecido. Han visto lo que les pasa a quienes se atreven a desafiarlo.
Cuando encarcelen a su hermano por traición, Laia se verá obligada a acudir a la resistencia. A cambio de su ayuda, deberá espiar para ellos en la Academia Militar. Allí conocerá a Elias, el soldado más prometedor del Imperio y también su mayor opositor.
Laia es esclava, Elias es soldado. Ninguno de los dos es libre.
Solo uniendo sus destinos podrían cambiar el de todos.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
TIMES 2020 100 Best YA of All Times
A "deft, polished debut" (Publishers Weekly, starred review), Sabaa Tahir‘s AN EMBER IN THE ASHES is a thought-provoking, heart-wrenching and pulse-pounding read. Set in a rich, high-fantasy world with echoes of ancient Rome, it tells the story of a slave fighting for her family and a young soldier fighting for his freedom.
Laia is a slave. Elias is a soldier. Neither is free.
Under the Martial Empire, defiance is met with death. Those who do not vow their blood and bodies to the Emperor risk the execution of their loved ones and the destruction of all they hold dear.
It is in this brutal world, inspired by ancient Rome, that Laia lives with her grandparents and older brother. The family ekes out an existence in the Empire's impoverished backstreets. They do not challenge the Empire. They've seen what happens to those who do.
But when Laia's brother is arrested for treason, Laia is forced to make a decision. In exchange for help from rebels who promise to rescue her brother, she will risk her life to spy for them from within the Empire's greatest military academy.
There, Laia meets Elias, the school's finest soldier—and secretly, its most unwilling. Elias wants only to be free of the tyranny he's being trained to enforce. He and Laia will soon realize that their destinies are intertwined—and that their choices will change the fate of the Empire itself.
