We Hunt the Flame by Hafsah Faizal (Paperback)

In a kingdom where magic has disappeared and suffering has taken its place, two legendary figures are forced onto paths that could change everything. One is known as the Hunter, a mysterious figure who ventures into dangerous lands to provide for her people. The other is the Prince of Death, an assassin feared throughout the kingdom for carrying out the orders of his father, the sultan.

Zafira hides a secret behind her reputation. Forced to disguise herself as a man, she risks her life every time she enters the cursed forest to hunt and provide for those around her. Her courage has made her a symbol of hope, yet the burden of her double life weighs heavily on her.

Nasir is equally trapped by the role others have created for him. As the sultan’s assassin, he has earned his terrifying title through obedience and deadly skill. Behind his fearsome reputation lies a young man bound by duty and expectations he never chose for himself.

When both are sent on dangerous missions connected to the return of magic, their journeys become intertwined. As they travel across a richly imagined world inspired by ancient Arabia, hidden truths begin to emerge and an ancient evil starts to awaken. Each must confront their fears, their identities, and the legends that surround them while navigating a path filled with danger and uncertainty.

Filled with magic, adventure, and simmering tension, We Hunt the Flame is a sweeping fantasy about courage, self-discovery, and the choices that define who we become.

Perfect for readers who enjoy YA fantasy, enemies-to-lovers romance, Arabian-inspired worlds, hidden identities, dangerous quests, and magical adventures with high stakes.
