The truth is, however, I just simply did not.Ĭharacters that didn’t quite hit the mark And I’m incredibly disappointed, because I so wanted to love this book. Unfortunately the ideas of We Hunt the Flame were wonderful and riveting, but its execution was lacking. Despite its promises to be a sweeping YA fantasy and a compelling story about two very different characters that fall into the same journey and destiny despite being enemies, I didn’t feel that the book delivered. That’s me right now, having finished reading We Hunt the Flame and now having to review it. But an ancient evil stirs as their journey unfolds-and the prize they seek may pose a threat greater than either can imagine. When Zafira embarks on a quest to uncover a lost artifact that can restore magic to her suffering world and stop the Arz, Nasir is sent by the king on a similar mission: retrieve the artifact and kill the Hunter. War is brewing, and the Arz sweeps closer with each passing day, engulfing the land in shadow. If Zafira was exposed as a girl, all of her achievements would be rejected if Nasir displayed his compassion, his father would punish him in the most brutal of ways.īoth are legends in the kingdom of Arawiya-but neither wants to be. Nasir is the Prince of Death, assassinating those foolish enough to defy his autocratic father, the king. Zafira is the Hunter, disguising herself as a man when she braves the cursed forest of the Arz to feed her people.
