Asha, our heroine, is considered an Iskari, bringer of death. Ciccarelli has created a complex and interesting fantasy world of Dragons, Royalty and a heroine, who is considered a princess, but is hated by many. The Last Namsara by Kristen Ciccarelli is the 1 st book in her new YA fantasy Iskari series. With the help of a secret friend-a slave boy from her betrothed’s household-Asha must shed the layers of her Iskari bondage and open her heart to love, light, and a truth that has been kept from her. When she’s offered the chance to gain her freedom in exchange for the life of the most powerful dragon in Firgaard, she finds that there may be more truth to the ancient stories than she ever could have expected. But it isn’t until she becomes the fiercest, most feared dragon slayer in the land that she takes on the role of the next Iskari-a lonely destiny that leaves her feeling more like a weapon than a girl.Īsha conquers each dragon and brings its head to the king, but no kill can free her from the shackles that await at home: her betrothal to the cruel commandant, a man who holds the truth about her nature in his palm. These are the legends that Asha, daughter of the king of Firgaard, has grown up hearing in hushed whispers, drawn to the forbidden figures of the past. But where there is light, there must be dark-and so there was also the Iskari. In the beginning, there was the Namsara: the child of sky and spirit, who carried love and laughter wherever he went.
