Alwyn Hamilton has done a fantastic job in weaving a genuinely intriguing young adult story. This startlingly original Middle-East-meets-Wild-West fantasy reveals what happens when a dream deferred explodes-in the fires of rebellion, of romantic passion, and the all-consuming inferno of a girl finally embracing her power.
