To say I am mentally unwell because of this book would be an understatement. I went through so many emotions. I am so sad that this is the end of this series, but I can’t wait to see these characters again in the next FBAA book. There were sooo many things revealed in this book, things both expected and completely unexpected. I’m honestly in awe of how well thought out this world is. I’m beyond excited to see what comes next for this world and how it all comes together!

About this item
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout comes the thrilling conclusion to her beloved Flesh and Fire series…
The line between love and obsession has never been wider.
While Sera is finally free of Kolis and back with those she loves, not everything is calm. Memories of all she’s endured still haunt her, but Sera finally has hope for a future with the other half of her heart and soul. Nyktos desires, loves, and accepts every part of her—even the monstrous bits she still battles.
More than ever, Sera and Ash have everything under the realms to fight for, and Nyktos has no doubt Sera is fit to be the Queen of the Gods. But she must find that faith within herself if they hope to convince the other Courts to support them against Kolis and make Iliseeum and the mortal realm better, safer places for all.
But as Sera begins to piece together the importance of her bloodline and the true meaning behind the foreboding prophecy, it becomes clear that everything that has happened and is yet to come is much bigger than Kolis and his dark obsessions.
They cannot help but wonder exactly how much influence the Fates have had and what their ultimate goal is. What Sera does know for sure is that they can trust very few—including her.
A battle between the gods is brewing, and heartbreaking losses are imminent with the true Primal of Death strengthening. With a family of the heart willing to battle by their side, can Sera and Nyktos stop Kolis before he destroys the realms, or will it all disappear in a fiery inferno of blood and ash?
And the line between justice and vengeance has never been so thin.

Feelings!
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2024
So. Many. Feelings. Nyktos and Sera experience so much in this conclusion to their story. At parts, i wanted to curl up and cry with Sera and celebrate all of her wins. I absolutely adore this world and love that JLA allowed us to not only experience Poppy and Cas in FBAA but that we could also get to know and journey with Nyktos and Sera. Definitely recommend this series and cannot wait for the next book in the FBAA world to possibly reconnect with these two again.

Stunning Finale
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2024
The final book in the Flesh and Fire series so we can continue with the Blood and Ash series!
It's always bittersweet to say goodbye to our beloved book characters but I was satisfied with how everything turned out in the end.
“Sad,” Jadis whispered. “Yes, she is sad,” Nektas answered. I felt Jadis move closer and then her lips against the bridge of my nose. “There. Better.”
Jadis and Reaver, of course, will guarantee to make your heart melt. Those two are seriously high up on my list of favorite characters in these books ????❤️
"I saw you, only you, and you were the most beautiful being I’d ever seen.”
Nyktos will also obviously make you swoon for his love of Sera! ???? Their relationship has really grown in this finale, and I loved seeing it play out.
Born of Blood and Ash comes out in only two days! I hope everybody has been rereading or skimming the important bits to be ready! This book is filled to the brim of battles, moving moments, exciting godly revelations, and important heartbreaking conversations. If you love the FBAA world as much as me, this is one you won't want to sleep on.

An Incredible Finale to the Flesh and Fire Series
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2024
Some authors do not have the gift of ending a series gracefully or impactfully. This is not the case with Born of Blood and Ash.
Everything about this final culmination of Sera and Nyktos’ series was well done.

Epic ending

This book is awesome! Such a great end, but hold on for dear life it’s one hell of twisted, messed up, emotional, battle torn ride that will take you to hell and back, but it’s a ride you don’t want to miss

Tiny tiny Print, Great book
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2024
So excited for this book! So far, it's great. The issues is not with the writing or story. The issue is that the print is TINY! Much smaller than the 3 other books. It is also smaller than the print in a mass market paperback. I get it. It's a long book. And it is well worth the eye strain! I see extremely well, especially up close, but this is kind of ridiculous. Bummer. Just read it in really good light, I guess. It really is great

Fitting ending
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2024
What a ride! I love Nyktos and Sera and have loved their story as the prequel much of the story ties up nicely. I still have some questions that hopefully will be discovered in the rest of FBAA series. I will say that these books were a little more of a struggle for me than some of her other series. I would get confused over characters and it’s very wordy, at times the scenes seem a bit drug out. It could be my difficulty in focusing and not the book per se. I do love all the supporting characters especially all the dragons. They are some of my favorite parts of the series. There are many swoon worthy moments and Nyktos is an amazing support system for Sera as she overcomes her trauma and fulfills her new role. Lots of action as well. I do think it could have been a bit shorter which is why I gave it 4 stars.
