What to expect in A Tribute of Fire:
—Greek Mythology
—Dragons
—Enemies-to-Lovers
—Found Family

Filled with twists, turns, and swoony romance, *A Tribute of Fire* follows a woman forced into her kingdom’s deadly games to appease a curse, satisfy the goddess, and ensure her nation’s survival.

There's no better feeling thanbeing utterly obsessed with a book. The world-building was incredibly well done, and the suspense and tension as Lia navigated the games kept me hooked.

The romance between Lia and Jason was beautiful and swoon worthy.

I’m a big sucker for books inspired by Greek mythology, so this book truly captivated me from the very first moment.

This was truly such an amazing book, and I can’t wait to read mor eof this authors work!

Thank you to NetGalley, the publishers and Sariah Wilson for providing me with an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I love it when you turn the last page and realize that you’ve just found another book for your favorites shelf, and that’s what happened with this beauty. I expected to like it, certainly, but I didn’t expect to become wholly obsessed with everything about it. the wirldbuodiig was incredible, I loved the suspense and tension as Lia tried to survive the games, and I loved the swoony romance between Lia and Jason. There’s a lot of Greek mythology woven in to this story as well, which was another highlight for me. All told, a fantastic first installment in the Eye of the Goddess series and I’ll definitely be picking up book 2 once it’s available. Add this to your tbr if you enjoy the following: ⁣

🍂Dragons⁣
🍂Incredible world-building⁣
🍂Deadly trials ⁣
🍂Sisterhood ⁣

That cliff hanger, geez I need the next book now. I enjoyed the way the author Wove together Greek mythology, a woman with a mission, romance and female empowerment to make a great Romantasy. The beginning was a bit slow for me but once it picked up I couldn’t put it down. The plot kept me reading, and I enjoyed the found family aspect and the whole can she trust feelings twords basically everyone which was reinforced by the shocker plot twists in the book. If you like a Romantasy with a woman who must save her world, can kick butt and an instant connection romance this book is one to pick up.

I absolutely adored this book and did not want to put it down! A Tribute of Fire was well paced with an immerse setting filled with a varying cast of characters. I’m loving the return of trials within Romantasy books. I’m a huge visual reader and I always have a lot of fun taking time to lay back and mentally visualise the image that is being described. I loved the focus on female friendship and relationships, and there was definitely enough twists and turns that left me shocked and ready for more. I highly recommend this book and I cannot wait for book two!

This book had me constantly at the edge of my seat. This is romantasy with some Greek mythology thrown in the mix. This story centers around Lia, princess of Locris, which is a desert kingdom that has gone through a great famine due to the curse of a godesss. Every year to appease the goddess, Illion, a rival nation comes to Locris’ shores to choose two maidens to be sacrificed to the goddess by making them race to the goddesses’ temple whilst being hunted.

The Lia, the female main character, really grabbed you and you could empathize with her throughout the story. You could only help and cheer Lia through her trials and tribulations to survive and help her homeland. Jason, the male main character was mysterious and very alluring. I absolutely loved the witty banter between these two as well as the incredible world building in this book. All the supporting characters were very well developed and you honestly got attached to them as you read along.

In this book you will find:
- Enemies to lovers
- Found family
- Forbidden romance
- Royal/political intrigue
- Reylo vibes
- Arranged marriage
- Dragons

I will say that the cliffhanger really got to me!! I honestly don’t know what to make of it and I want more! I can’t wait to read the sequel to this page turning novel!!

Thank the author, Sariah Wilson for giving me an digital ARC in exchange for my honest review.

A goddess cursing the people ….a brave girl becoming a warrior to protect her sister ….such an intriguing read!!

a tribute of fire follows Lia, a princess of a goddess-cursed land who winds up participating in a deadly trial to begin her mission to restore her land back to it's former glory.

this story for the most part was everything you'd want in a romantasy; a strong heroine FMC, a warrior MMC, action-packed and detailed, yet easy to follow, world-building. i really loved the sisterhood between Lia and her adelphia, and the greek mythology especially.

lia and jason's arc was definitely a bumpy ride. insta lust for sure, for the most part, and an attempt at enemies-to-lovers thrown in there too. although i had my theories on where the story was heading, especially with certain *cough* characters, the last few chapters still had me on the edge of my seat and the cliffhanger had me throwing my kindle out of sheer frustration when i'd finished it.

i desperately desperately need book two, like, immediately!

Romantasy meets Greek mythology in this absolutely amazing story! I was intrigued from the very get-go! Sariah Wilson delivers a masterclass in page-turning action, with an FMC that is everything a fantasy book needs. The female rage is impeccable the character development so incredibly well done. I’m going to need book two immediately!

Girl, that cliffhanger though. That was a wild ride and I really enjoyed it! I found it to be really interesting and it kept my attention throughout the story! It also started off and ended with a big bang!

This book felt like coming home for me. Deadly trials (for the ones who re-read Hunger Games over and over again) and greek mythology (for the ones who re-read the DK Greek Mythology encyclopedia over and over again) with the addition of a badass FMC, a forbidden romance, and strong friendships between women make this book a must-read.

I had such a fun time reading this book! While I had figured out a couple of the mysteries, the twists and turns were so fun to read, and I couldn't put it down. I am especially excited for the next book in the series, because I can see a few areas (not mentioning specifics to avoid spoilers!) where there will definitely be expansion and more detail as the characters learn more about the world they live in and each other.

I would add this to your TBR if you like:
- Deadly trials
- Forbidden romance
- Badass FMC
- Smooth talker MMC
- Mystery
- Greek Mythology
- Strong friendships between women
- Magic (I'm excited to see how this expands in book 2!)

Thank you so much to Netgalley and Sariah Wilson for sending me an eARC copy!

I'm calling it now - this book will be the next big romantasy book people will rave about!

It has everything one would expect from a brilliant fantasy book: the tension is unmatched, the characters diverse and unique, making you fall in love with them without a second thought. Lia, especially, has my heart and soul - an incredible FMC that would walk through fire for the people she loves, and would fight with everything for what’s write. Her journey of love and loss truly spoke to my heart.

The story itself is perfectly paced, captivating from the very first page. If you find yourself enjoying the found family trope and love a little Greek mythology gems, this one is perfect for you!

P.s. I'm fairly certain I'm still not breathing properly after that ending

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“It’s like we were two flames, drawn to each other, meant to burn brightly together.”
“That also means we can destroy each other”

Oh my god you have no idea how much I love this book! (My family has been begging me to stop talking about it)
This book has everything you could ever want in a Romantasy! Greek mythology, a strong heroine, a fun magic system, female friendships, a lot of intrigue and an amazing book boyfriend!
I am genuinely struggling to put my feelings into words because WOW.
If you are looking for a new Romantasy to take over your life and a book boyfriend to take over your thoughts, look no further!
But be warned! The cliffhanger was INSANE! And I have to wait ONE ENTIRE YEAR????

Thank you to Sariah Wilson and NetGalley for the ARC!
I might come back to this later when I have the words to express my thoughts!

This review is also available on Goodreads and The StoryGraph. I will post about it on my Instagram (@titas_library) within the next few days.

I adored the Greek inspired world- our FMC is a warrior princess from a poor realm, who is betrothed to a rival prince. She wants to save her realm from this curse, so rigs a ceremony, so she is chosen to perform a trial which will give her access, if she wins, to the Goddess’s temple in which she believes is a relic which will save her people 👀

I’m just so obsessed; The writing is superb- it flowed beautifully and I could not put this book down!! The world and characters are wonderfully crafted!

The romance is incredible- the tension is some of the best I’ve read in a while 😍 the dream walking is *chef’s kiss*- just the epitome of an undeniable connection!!

That cliffy is rough- you’ve been warned!!

A Tribute of Fire by Sariah Wilson 4⭐️

Lia, the Princess of Locris, has been training relentlessly to enter a deadly trial so that she may save her land from an ancient curse. All her plans go out the window when her sister is chosen to participate in the trial with her. We follow Lia as she navigates these new challenges and still tries to save her crumbling nation.

🔥 Found Family
🔥 Sassy/Stabby FMC
🔥 Gods and Goddesses
🔥 Hidden Identities
🔥 Enemies to Lovers

Good golly this book was an emotional rollercoaster! I really enjoyed Lia and her internal monologue. The cliff hanger at the end?? Oh my god I need the next book immediately!! I love the found family that Lia and her sisters created. The twists?!? I saw some of them coming but that didn’t make them hit any less. The banter between Lia and Jason is top tier. There’s so much I want to say but in the interest of keeping this spoiler free I’ll leave it at that.

Thank you to Sariah Wilson for an early copy in exchange for my honest review!

I had high hopes for this book, especially with its intriguing premise, but unfortunately, it didn’t quite hit the mark for me. The insta-love trope was a significant drawback; it made the female main character (FMC) feel frustrating and unlikable, which dampened my overall enjoyment.

While the premise surrounding the trial had great potential, it only received a handful of chapters, diminishing its importance and the sense of danger it could have conveyed. I did appreciate the found family aspect and found the priestess/temple storyline intriguing, but I wished there was more exploration of those elements.

The pacing was another issue. The plot dragged at times, with excessive inner dialogue from the FMC that left me feeling bored. It wasn’t until the last 100 pages that things picked up, and I found the twists toward the end to be quite engaging. However, I can’t help but feel that we should have arrived at that exciting point much sooner.

As for the romantic subplot, it fell flat. The FMC swooned over the male main character (MMC) without much interaction between them, which felt unrealistic. Even during serious moments, her thoughts were fixated on how handsome he was, rather than the situation at hand. This constant distraction became annoying rather than charming.

Overall, while there were some redeeming aspects, the execution left me wanting more depth and coherence.

This book was not for me. Firstly, it didn't need to be 500 pages, it was way too long. Secondly what's wrong with the FMC. I was intrigued by the blurb but all I found in this book was a horny FMC who couldn't stop thinking about kissing the guy who was leading her and her sister to death.

People who like Greek mythology might like it more (for that reason) but I will not be continuing with the series.

I received an advance copy of the book and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Thank you so much author, Netgalley and the publishers for this amazing ARC in exchange for an honest review 💜

If you like royalty, magical creatures (yes this includes dragons), hints of Greek mythology, trials, magic, stabby FMCs, and morally gray MMC, in your fantasy romance, this is a MUST READ for you. Think hunger games meets from blood to ash. You hit your feet running in the action of this book, and it never stops. This book had me sitting on the edge of my seat at every page turn. In this story, Euthalia is a princess of a failing nation who intentionally has her name drawn as tribute for the deadly trials in hopes to save her country and siblings. A trial in which she has to survive thousands of men chasing her through a foreign city to the goddess’ temple where she must find the eye of the goddess and return it to her home. Except of course the trials and world turned out to be so much more than Euthalia could have ever imagined.

Thank you Net Galley for my free copy in exchange for a honest review.

“It only takes one person to change the world, one person to save a life”

A Tribute of Fire was a fierce and refreshing read! Packed with female empowerment and determination, it was a pure delight from start to finish. 🔥

This was my first Sariah Wilson book, and I am absolutely in love with her writing style. Sariah’s writing is easy to devour but adds so much to the setting of the story.

The Greek mythology elements woven into the story were amazing and the references were so well done - accessible, intriguing and beautifully integrated.

Now the characters; the story provides swoony heroes and interesting second characters. Lia is crafted as a richly layered heroine that I believe many readers will find relatable. Her flaws and inner reflections reveal her humanity, making her growth and development throughout the story feel authentic and compelling. Though Jason remains a bit of a mystery, his quick wit and hidden depth makes him intriguing, and I can’t wait to dive deeper into his character in book two.

Overall, this book was an absolute delight—truly captivating from start to finish. If you’re into forbidden romance, a strong female lead, and a “touch her and you die” hero, this is the perfect read for you. 💙🔥

Thank you Sariah for sending me an early copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion!

Yessssssssss! So good! Love a good romantasy. I know this author is highly recommended, although I haven’t read anything by her personally, so I was excited to give this a try!

Great world building and also great chemistry between Lia and Jason… and it had a little bit of everything! I liked having actual plot lol great read!
