About the book
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
With the awakening of fire-breathing wyrms, Among the Burning Flowers sees the first sparks of danger that threaten to consume the world in The Priory of the Orange Tree.
Take your first steps into the epic.
Yscalin, land of sunshine and lavender, will soon be ablaze.
It has been centuries since the Draconic Army took wing, almost extinguishing humankind.
Marosa Vetalda is a prisoner in her own home, controlled by her cold father, King Sigoso. Over the mountains, her betrothed, Aubrecht Lievelyn, rules Mentendon in all but name. Together, they intend to usher in a better world.
A better world seems impossibly distant to Estina Melaugo, who hunts the Draconic beasts that have slept across the world for centuries.
And now the great wyrm Fýredel is stirring, and Yscalin will be the first to fall . . .
A story of human resilience in the face of dire circumstances, Among the Burning Flowers leads readers through the gripping and tragic events that pave the way for the opening of the million-copy bestseller The Priory of The Orange Tree.
Richly illustrated with magical artwork by Rovina Cai (@rovinacai).

4.5This book was my attempt to get back into this rich and vast world by Samantha Shannon. After reading POTOT I had a bit of trouble, finding the world intriguing, but the story lacking in pacing and being unnecessarily complicated at times.
So this novella was just perfect, and I have to say I really enjoyed everything. It's dual POV, and while I was more interested in the monster slayer than the princess, I enjoyed both. It's perfect to get me remotivated for the Roots of Chaos series. However, if you are already a fan and have devoured the books before, I think this is a great way to get more of this world you adore and love. I hope there are more stories in this series, because to me it seems endless and with a lot more to tell. 4,5/5 stars Thank you @netgalley and @bloomsburypublishing for the eARC! #AmongTheBurningFlowers #RootsOfChaos #Netgalley #Bookstagram

4.0Es war wunderbar wieder in dieser Welt zu sein! Streckenweise hat sich angefühlt, als wären das Erzählstränge, die die Autorin eigentlich in Priory of the Orange Tree erzählen wollte, deshalb weiß ich nicht, ob sich das Buch als Einstieg für die Welt eignet, aber wenn man schon dort war, liest es sich toll! Habe damit meine Reread gestartet und dafür ist es optimal 🧡
