A THIEF AMONG THE TREES: AN EMBER IN THE ASHES OGN Announced

September 30, 2019 Off By Michael Stagno

An original graphic novel, A Thief Among the Trees, will serve as a prequel to the An Ember in the Ashes series, as announced by Boom! Studios.

Creators Sabaa Tahir, Nicole Andelfinger and Sonia Liao, will tell the story of Elias, Helene and Tavi, who are all ‘Fivers’, those in training to become elite military as part of the Martial Empire at Blackcliff Academy. Upon being sent on a dangerous mission to steal a guarded poison on Isle South, they find themselves pinned against a surprising enemy, fellow recruits! The true horror of the mission is revealed and difficult choices will have to be made.

“Sabaa has created something truly inspiring with her An Ember in the Ashes series. Relevant and thought-provoking, the story is one that continues to stick with me,” said Andelfinger. “It was an honor to work on A Thief Among the Trees and to help Sabaa bring this story, not only to long time Ember lovers, but also introduce this deep and poignant world to new readers as well.”

This OGN will serve as the first in an upcoming trilogy in exploring the characters of An Ember in the Ashes.

A Thief Among the Trees: An Ember in the Ashes hits shelves in July of 2020.
