The Jasad Heir

Happy publication day!

The Jasad Heir is a Egyptian inspired fantasy novel. This book is full of political intrigue, interesting characters, wrapped with a vaste worldbuing.

Although I enjoyed Sara Hashem writing style, I've found the pace a bit slow and the story too long. The Jasad Heir, as other recent fantasy books, feels mostly as a set up for a second book, lacking something to make it shine on its own.

The FMC and MMC interactions are great and strongly help carry the book. Thought the romance is not a central issue, it was my favorite part as I believe it might have been the first time I've read a true enemies to lovers. I couldn't believe it would happen and I think it was brilliantly done.

The ending was thrilling and I feel the next books should be promising.

Read this if you like fantasy and enjoy:
- political intrigue
- found family
- fugitive queen
- trials
- forbidden romance
- enemies to lovers
- “who did this to you?”

I would like to thank Orbit and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
