           Meira by pro záchranu světa udělala cokoli. Nejdřív se ale musí naučit ovládat svou magii. Rozklad však i tak může porazit jen jediným způsobem – sestoupit do labyrintu pod Střídavými královstvími a vzdát se magie, což znamená obětování sebe sama.

ano. Ano. ANO. 
Sara Raasch mi konečně ukázala, že opravdu umí psát hezky, když chce. Třetí díl byl nejlepší z celé série. Ale stále bych k němu měla pár připomínek. 
Začátek knihy mi přišel jako mix Harryho Pottera a Dvorů, ale časem to naštěstí pomine. Jako další mi v celé sérii vadilo slovo slonovina. Ze slonoviny bylo totiž v knize úplně všechno, ať už šaty, zámek nebo kůže. Přišlo mi, že buď Sara nebo překladatel neznali jiný odstín bílé než slonovinu. Celkem mi v knize vadilo, že Meira byla psaná v první osobě a přítomném čase, a všichni ostatní v třetí osobě minulého času. A to se nějaké kapitoly odehrávaly ve stejný čas, akorát z jiného úhlu pohledu. Meira byla zezačátku jako vždy strašně uplakaná a celkově to je taková slabá postava. Pořád pláče jaká je chudinka atd. Naopak Feige a Ceridwen by si v knize zasloužily mnohem více místa, protože to byly postavy jak se patří. I když byl tento díl konečně dobře napsaný, takový ten umělečtější styl psaní jsem vnímala spíše u kapitol vyprávěných vedlejšími postavami. Doufala jsem v to, že kniha skončí tak, jak to celou dobu Sara píše, ale už tak nějak jsem počítala s tím, že to dopadne jinak, aby se to čtenářům líbilo. A samozřejmě že to tak i dopadlo :). 
Takže to zakončení se mi nelíbilo.

4*/5* Tento díl byl fajn, konečně to bylo něco, co dokázalo naplnit má očekávání k této sérii.

The multiple point of views was a interesting addition to say the least. At times it was a bit too much and not as focused as in the first book. The overall plot of the book was amazing, the suspense, the romance  everything was great.

Strong finish to this series. Raasch really grew as a writer over the course of this!

Meh. The best part about this was Mather; it always has been. Meira is kind of a boring protagonist—I’m rooting for her, but also, I’m not super invested. I was also hoping that the writing would mature as the trilogy went on, but it didn’t. I’m sure this series is perfect for some readers out there, but it just didn’t hit my sweet spots the way I was hoping it would.

I loved everything about this trilogy! The ending was perfect. I highly HIGHLY recommend!

4.75 stars!

This was a great conclusion to the trilogy. So much was left open in the second book that I desperately needed to be filled in this one, and that was definitely delivered. The only reason I had to knock it down that small .25 stars is because I completely predicted the ending at the beginning of the book. However, that did not stop me from loving the characters and the world, even through the end that I knew was coming. (A satisfying end, might I add, even if you expect it.)

           This book was an awesome ending to a fantastic series.
For a fantasy series the ending was quite bold, taking away the magic instead of fixing the problem of the book. In this case I would say it would be pretty impossible to actually get rid of The Decay and I truly did like this ending for the world of Snow Like Ashes! It gives all of them a fresh start. It gives all of the kingdoms a startover where they can focus on the actual wellbeing of their country instead of blasting magic on people in the way the monarchs want.

I actually don’t have much more to say, but I’ve grown attached to Meira and Ceridwen and I actually started to like Mather, even tho he still isn’t my favorite.

This was definitely better than the last book, and all in all, a good conclusion.

I'm not really sure what to say about this one. It ended well I suppose. It was just boring. I found myself wondering if it was ever going to end. I started skimming the pages just to get through it quicker. A dissapointing final book to a trilogy I originally liked.

Game of Thrones meets Graceling in this action-packed fantasy—the highly anticipated final book in the New York Times bestselling Snow Like Ashes series by Sara Raasch. Perfect for fans of An Ember in the Ashes and A Court of Thorns and Roses. Angra is alive, his Decay is spreading—and no one is safe. Meira will do anything to save her world. With Angra trying to break through her mental defenses, she desperately needs to learn to control her own magic—so when the leader of a mysterious Order from Paisly offers to teach her, Meira jumps at the chance. But the true solution to stopping the Decay lies in a labyrinth deep beneath the Season Kingdoms. To defeat Angra, Meira will have to enter the labyrinth, destroy the very magic she’s learning to control—and make the biggest sacrifice of all. Mather will do anything to save his queen. He needs to rally the Children of the Thaw, find Meira—and finally tell her how he really feels. But with a plan of attack that leaves no kingdom unscathed and a major betrayal within their ranks, winning the war—and protecting Meira—slips farther and farther out of reach. Ceridwen will do anything to save her people. Angra had her brother killed, stole her kingdom, and made her a prisoner. But when she’s freed by an unexpected ally who reveals a shocking truth behind Summer’s slave trade, Ceridwen must take action to save her true love and her kingdom, even if it costs her what little she has left. As Angra unleashes the Decay on the world, Meira, Mather, and Ceridwen must bring the kingdoms of Primoria together…or lose everything.
