Biographisches: " Saara El-Arifi is the internationally bestselling author of The Final Strife and The Battle Drum , the first two installments of The160" Rezension(2): "〈a href=http://www.publishersweekly.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/pw_logo.png alt=Publisher's Weekly border=0 /〉〈/a〉: October 23, 2023 The beguiling first installment of a new fantasy trilogy from El-Arifi ( The Final Strife ) introduces a mystical world filled with conflict. Elves were born of the moon, fae were born of the sun, and humans were born of the earth, or so the myth goes. Now, only elves remain, and all is not well. The Forever War between elven tribes has raged on for as long as sisters Lettle and Yeeran have been alive. Yeeran is a decorated soldier determined to help the Waning Tribe win and thrive. Lettle, a diviner, is repulsed by the conflict but driven to prove her worth to her sister. When one of Yeeran’s command decisions ends in tragedy, she’s exiled to the harsh environment outside of the Elven Lands. Lettle and Rayan, one of Yeeran’s soldiers, follow her by choice, and all three find themselves unexpectedly drawn into the world of the fae, creatures they believed were long extinct. Relying on their scant knowledge from old stories, the sisters and Rayan must navigate this strange, underground world, replete with magic, secrets, and romance beyond their wildest imaginings. The worldbuilding is lush and exciting, and the focus on character development and relationships makes for a cast that readers will be excited to revisit in future installments. El-Arifi is off to a great start." Rezension(3): "〈a href=http://lj.libraryjournal.com/ target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/libraryjournal_logo.png alt=Library Journal border=0 /〉〈/a〉: November 1, 2023 Endless war killed off humans and fae, and it's still consuming the elves. Yeeran rises in the elven army's ranks, but on the same day she's promoted, she faces exile for failure. Hunting in the wilds outside of the elven capital, she's ambushed--not by an opposing army, but by fae--for killing a fae prince. Brought to the fae court in an underground society, Yeeran is put on trial but saved when a fae beast bonds itself to her, giving her magic and the possibility to end both the war and the imprisonment of the fae. This ambitious series opener plays with genre, tone, gender, and expectations while delivering an intriguing series opener. The magic system is inventive and layered, and romance is slow to build and well paid off. Some story beats are predictable, especially given the heavy use of prophecy in the narrative, but others are twisty enough to surprise. VERDICT An intriguing start to a new series from El-Arifi ( The Battle Drum ). --Katherine SleykoCopyright 2023 Library Journal, LLC Used with permission. "
