I always get excited when an author that I really enjoy comes out with a new series. That's how I felt about the book Flame in the Mist by Renee Ahdieh. Renee Ahdieh wrote the series that started with The Wrath and the Dawn. As I read that series, I couldn't wait for the next book because I loved the characters and the strength that they portrayed. So, I read with anticipation, Flame in the Mist. The author offers the reader another multicultural adventure. The honor of the Samurai is demonstrated and challenged. The place of women in the culture is examined. The role of arranged marriages is questioned and honored. There is so much in this book, and I anticipate an exciting continuation when book two shows up on library shelves.
