Embers is a really interesting new type of series and I am looking forward to getting the next installment.  My only hope of difference?  That there is not so much detail in it.  Don't get me wrong, you don't have any problem trying to picture the scenes in this book because Kelly gave very vivid details on it.  BUT, it seemed like more than half the book was nothing but details.  UGH.  I normally skip over "too much details", however, Kelly really pulled it off in this one.  I barely skipped over anything because the story was really good.  I do really REALLY hope that there is more to the actual story in the next installment.The heroine in this story didn't want to be one.  As a matter of fact, Deira was so "real" to me that I could literally picture her life as it was happening and why she made the choices she made.  There was no whining, eye rolling, sticking the tongue out nonsense you read in all the YA books that are out there today.  She had a crappy life, was thrust into a situation that was by far not ideal and made the best of it including grew up a little bit and marched onward!  Oh and let's not forget Balen!!  OH MY!  :)  Now THAT is a man I would love to run into.  Ha ha ha.  You get to have a very rough around the edges, handsome Hero in this one.  But not a over the top macho guy either.  A "REAL" man!I guess you can say that from what I wrote, I do recommend this book.  I am looking forward to the 2nd one and I am sure that once you read Embers in a Dark Frost, you will too.  :)  Happy Reading!
