Reviews
-Paisleypiranha Book Blog

"If you're looking for something different and new, then Ember Burning comes highly recommended. It doesn't fit neatly into existing categories but beats a whole new path. One that's full of traps and people who can't be trusted. Compelling and creepy, I loved it."
