![]() The book felt like the second half of a movie, taking the story further and doing the unexpected. Sebastian moves the story along in a logical and exciting way, keeping the adventure going while adding new elements to the world. I really enjoyed Ash Princess and was excited to pick up Lady Smoke (though the title was as ephemeral as smoke to me – I kept forgetting it). This book was one of the best sequels I’ve ever read. Theo must now develop a plan that might involve a political marriage and will definitely involve plenty of sacrifice so she can save the kingdom she was meant to rule. Soren, the Kalovaxian prince, is in their custody. Her Shadows – Blaise, Artemisia, and Heron – are with her aboard a ship captained by the elusive pirate Dragonsbane, who is none other than Theo’s aunt. Lady Smoke picks up where the last book ended, with Theodosia making her escape from Astrea with her crew at her side. In Ash Princess, Theodosia, the princess of the conquered Astrea, schemes and plays a game in her former court in order to retake her kingdom from the conquering Kalovaxians. ![]() Lady Smoke, by Laura Sebastian, is the sequel to Sebastian’s wonderful Ash Princess. ![]()
