New Look At Sabaa Tahir’s AN EMBER IN THE ASHES Prequel Graphic Novel From BOOM! Studios

A Spark Within The Forge: An Ember In The Ashes is part two of the prequel trilogy to Sabaa Tahir’s New York Times bestseller story An Ember In The Ashes, brought to you by BOOM! Studios. Writer Nicole Andelfinger (Dragon Prince: Bloodmoon Huntress), artist Sonia Liao  (The Curie Society), colorist Kieran Quigley, and letterer Mike Fiorentino bring you the story of Laia’s past.

Before they were torn asunder, Laia lived happily and quietly with her Nan, Pop, and brother Darin within the Scholar district of Martial-ruled Serra. Although Laia is afraid to venture outside her home due to the heavy Martial presence, Darin loves to explore all parts of their home city… even those that are forbidden.

As a dangerous illness spreads throughout Serra, Laia must confront her deepest fears in order to save a community besieged by disease. Meanwhile, Darin has a chance encounter with famed swordsmith Spiro Teluman that leads him down a precarious path away from his family — but towards hope for his people.
