Description
Rebellions are like fires--something needs to burn to make a flame. Return to the Wardens' Empire in this riveting conclusion to the visionary fantasy trilogy inspired by the mythology of Africa and Arabia. The Wardens' Empire is falling. A vigilante known only as the Truthsayer is raising an army against the wardens. Sylah and Hassa must navigate the politics of this new world, all the while searching for Anoor. Across the sea, the Blood Forged prepare for war, requesting aid from other governments. Jond's role as major general sees him training soldiers for combat, but matters of the heart will prove to be the hardest battlefield. The Zalaam celebrate the arrival of the Child of Fire, heralding the start of the final battle. Anoor's doubts are eclipsed by the powers of her new god. Soon the Zalaam will set off on their last voyage--and few expect to return. Do you feel it? Cresting the horizon? The darkness drawing in, the shadows elongating . . .The Ending Fire comes.

Reviews
Praise for The Final Strife "Saara El-Arifi deftly facets every layer of her debut. Epic in scope, its world building as intricate as filigree, The Final Strife sings of rebellion, love, and the courage it takes to stand up to tyranny, following three women whose journeys will keep you gripped to the last."--Samantha Shannon, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Priory of the Orange Tree "With a heroine with bite, a supporting cast of flawed but deeply human characters, and world building that is raw, unforgiving, and richly textured, The Final Strife is the real deal: epic fantasy turned on its head in the most compelling way imaginable."--Kalynn Bayron, bestselling author of Cinderella Is Dead and This Poison Heart "The undercurrents of friendship, betrayal, and sapphic love, and the twists and turns of the competitive trials and political intrigue, come together to kick off a magnetic and appealing new series."--Booklist "El-Arifi tells a tale that is as fierce as its characters, plunging you into a sandy, stratified world until you can feel the grit between your teeth. Heart-wrenching and heart-pounding, The Final Strife is an unmissable debut."--Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter "El-Arifi is a game-changing new voice in epic fantasy, and The Final Strife is a triumph of a book, full of rage, charm, and a cast of misfits you can't help but root for. There are no Chosen Ones here--only bad choices and blood."--Tasha Suri, author of The Jasmine Throne "Epic, gripping, and searing, The Final Strife weaves a fascinating tale of destiny, magic, and love set in a richly imagined yet brutally divided world. Its unexpected, gritty heroine is one you cannot help but root for, and the story will stay with you long after the last page."--Sue Lynn Tan, author of Daughter of the Moon Goddess "Boasting an expertly layered world that is equal parts beautifully rendered and brutal in its depiction, with a protagonist who is as likely to save the day as she is to ruin it, The Final Strife brims with delicious tension--I loved every page."--Ciannon Smart, author of Witches Steeped in Gold
