“The world makes things for each place. Fish for the sea, Rocs for the mountain skies, and girls with sun in their skin and perfect aim for a desert that doesn’t let weakness live.”

READ IN 2018 || rebel of the sands series 

But even if the desert forgot a thousand and one of our stories, it was enough that they would tell of us at all. That long after our deaths, men and women sitting around a fire would hear that once, long ago,                            before we were all just stories, we lived.

Alwyn Hamilton has a new book coming in 2020!🎉🎉

The Notorious Virtues is book 1 in a trilogy, set in a 1920′s-inspired fantasy world & in the same world as Rebel Of The Sands “ though on a different continent and generations apart...” 

The Notorious Virtues introduces a world of glitz and glamour, debauchery and decadence, where a deadly rivalry threatens to tear the Holtzfall family apart. The younger generation must compete in trials to determine who is most virtuous – and therefore most worthy – of inheriting control of the family, their money, their magic and their influence over the country.

Born into privilege, Honora Holtzfall has never wanted for anything until now. Lotte was born with nothing—or so she thought. While Theo was raised to serve a family for whom his loyalty is now being tested. And August knows nothing in this world is going to be handed to him, unlike the heiress he’s becoming entangled with.

But even as the Holtzfalls wage their battles of privilege and power, virtue and vice, something bigger and more sinister bubbles beneath the surface. Behind closed doors, a revolution has begun…

“But then, this was what the desert did to us. It made us dreamers with weapons.” - Traitor to the Throne, Alwyn Hamilton

“You’re wrong, you know. I’m not with you because of who you became. I fell in love with you when I was bleeding under a counter at the dead end of the desert and you saved my life. Back when we were both who we used to be.”

“But he wondered if a boy from the sea and a girl from the desert could ever survive together. He feared that she might burn him alive or that he might drown her. Until finally he stopped fighting it and set himself on fire for her.”

Rebel of the Sands series by Alwyn Hamilton. Enjoyed this series immensely 😊

[bea-reads-a-lot]

This series is AMAZING. 

 I have never read a series that was so consistent, that tied up all loose ends so meticulously, included so many little stories and myths, and explained EVERYTHING. 

 This series is beautifully put together, and the characters and their stories progress and evolve so much that when you get to the end you no longer recognize the characters from the first books, but you know how they got to where they are now, and it MAKES SENSE. 

 You guys seriously, the story and the characters are amazing and relatable, but the meticulously storytelling makes this series so SATISFYING. 

 A gazillion stars!! If you haven’t read this yet, do yourself a favour and go buy at least the first book!! NOW!! Thank me later ;) (Goodreads link)

Reasons why Sam is amazing

1.He’s witty, has the best banter/lines in the series & brings much needed light moments of comedy/humor in Traitor To The Throne & Hero At The Fall which get pretty dark (Loved every scene with him ❤❤)

2.Decides to make a name for himself by joining the Albish army, then deserts and becomes thief in Miraji

3.Grows into a person who finds something he’s willing to fight for after joining Amani in her revolution

4.His backstory is so incredibly complex and regardless of what he’s been through, he’s still a good person

5.He’s one of the only non-Mirajin characters in the crew with powers, which allows us to learn about the magic outside of Miraji!

6.He’s genuinely a good person, but just learns more about commitment as we see his past catch up with him

7.His friendship with the crew, especially with Amani & Shazad is so well developed and you sense it throughout Traitor and Hero!

Sam is one of my favorite characters from the Rebel Of The Sands Trilogy! I I loved learning about him, his story, etc.throughout Traitor To The Throne & Hero At Fall, and he deserves so much more love! 💕
