Warning: This review contains spoilers for We Hunt the Flame and We Free the Stars.
We Free the Stars by Hafsah Faizal is the perfect ending to the duology. The first book is We Hunt the Flame. This duology is a Middle Eastern-inspired fantasy. Zafira is a huntress who is on a quest to hunt for a magical artifact. Meanwhile, Nasir is a prince who has been sent on a mission to kill the hunter not knowing that the hunter is a woman. However, if the huntress is discovered to be a woman, then everything she’s worked so hard to do will be discredited simply because she’s a woman.
In We Free the Stars, the battle of Sharr is over and Altair is held captive by the Lion. Meanwhile, the Zumra is working tirelessly to finish what Altair had planned and rescue Altair as well. But they’re low on resources and Zafira’s battling with the Jawarat—a darkness that has the ability to push her towards a level of chaos that terrifies her.
On the other hand, Nasir is working hard to learn how to hone his magical abilities. He wants to learn how to do this so that he can conquer the Lion and his father; who is also ensnared by the Lion. In order to succeed, the Zumra has to make some sacrifices. But, despite all of the darkness Nasir and Zafira have fallen in love. But time is running out and it’s hard to tell who will make it out alive. Earlier this week, We Free the Stars made it on The New York Times Bestsellers List!
