As Vasilia consolidates power, Kendra faces the shattering reality that her actions have inadvertently fueled a more formidable adversary.

Will Kendra's resilience and the courage of her allies be enough to tip the scales, or will the cost of victory be too great for them to bear? Triumph's Ashes is a riveting exploration of the complexities of war, friendship, and the indomitable spirit of those who dare to resist. Sometimes, winning is harder than losing, as our intrepid heroines are finding out in Adam Gaffen's latest installment proves. Without spoiling anything, revolution is hard, bloody and when you are fighting a psychopathic whackjob, for your ohana... winning can feel very much like losing. Adam does an amazing job continuing the Cassidy Chronicles with this one... there's action, adventure, romance, and some heartbreak too... it's a definite page-turner, and I couldn't put it down! His well defined characters and compelling dialogue drove the plot forward, and once I had discovered the basic gist of the story I was drawn into it with a degree of comfort and familiarity.
