Of Fire and Ash by Amber Argyle

Of Fire and Ash (Fairy Queens, #3)

by Amber Argyle

The fae are watching, waiting . . .

Nelay must keep her forbidden sight hidden from the fae at all costs, for their attention always brings death and destruction. But as the drought worsens, it becomes harder and harder not to use her sight to provide for her family. And then the worst happens.

Only Nelay's sight will allow her to save her family.

With the fae already watching - waiting for Nelay to slip up - she has to be more careful than ever not to reveal her sight. Because if the fae realize she can see them, nothing will stop them from claiming her for their dark purpose.

Can Nelay keep her forbidden sight hidden long enough to save her family? Or will the fae catch her in their wicked web?

Two immortal queens. A dying magic. A world to save . . .

Of Fire and Ash Of Fire and Ash is a short novella in the Fairy Queens series by Amber Argyle. It introduces us to Nelay, a young girl who had spent her life hiding the reality of her special gift... the fact that she could see fairies. Her mother had taught her from a very young age to avoid them at all costs. For one thing, the help of a fairy meant a very high price would have to be paid. In addition, it could bring her to the attention of the priestesses, taking her away to a life apart from your family. But Nelay learns that sometimes it is a price worth paying, or is it?
 
This is a short read, but a great back story to the upcoming Summer Queen!
 
My Recommendation
 
While you could probably read Summer Queen without it, it adds quite a bit to Nelay's story!
