The survival of the human race depends entirely on Ibarra’s ability to steer them to the path of survival. The plot is quite interesting and lays a solid foundation for the entire series.

The book doesn’t exactly end in a cliffhanger. But there are several unanswered questions which will make you eagerly wait for the further editions.

” The Ruins of Anthalas” is the second book of the ” Ember War Saga”. Richard Fox starts off from right where he left in the first book. It is believed that the key to the survival of mankind lies in an ancient holocaust. Plenty of people were killed during the Xaros invasion and those who have survived the invasion are too weak to fight the Aliens when they return. In order to rebuild the Defence of the Earth, they have to get hold of a cryptic message. The message is from an alien race. However, the problem is that the message lies in a place called Anthalas which is beyond the enemy line. In order to get hold of the message, they have to somehow cross the enemy line. The responsibility of getting the message was entrusted to Breitenfeld. Breitenfeld set out on a journey to reach the distant alien world. However, upon arrival, it has been revealed that apart from Earth, there are many other powers who are interested in the powers of the secret planet. It will be interesting to find out whether the Ruins of Anthalas indeed holds an ancient secret or is just a trap.

The Xaros are not currently in Anthalas but they can arrive anytime soon. This is why Breitenfeld must get the job done quickly and shouldn’t waste any time. Breitenfeld should also try to avoid other powers. Unfortunately, at the same time, there is also the presence of another power called the Toth. Toth used to be an alliance of Xaros and they still share a friendly relation. Thus now, humankind also has to fight Toth apart from Xaros. The battle field is slowly getting more crowded and the odds of survival are getting less day by day.

In this book, we are introduced to several new characters. We also get to know more about the existing characters. We also get to know more about some of the other Alien spices like Qa’resh who are also trying to fight Xaros. Like the Qa’resh, there are some other friendly Alien species as well. However, the majority of them are enemies. Just like the previous book, this one also has a well-paced storyline and there are plenty of maritime action scenes. At the end of the book, there are definitely not many humans left. It will be interesting to see how they are able to fight the Xaros whose powers are increasing with each day. This is what makes the 3rd book very interesting.
