Publisher's summary

"Narrator Rebecca Soler returns for the final installment in the Caraval trilogy... The magic, the fear, the betrayal, and especially the heartbreak are all magnified by her skillful narration. An intense listen that is hard to pause." — AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award winner

Welcome, welcome to Finale, the third and final audiobook in Stephanie Garber’s #1 New York Times bestselling Caraval series!

A love worth fighting for. A dream worth dying for. An ending worth waiting for.

It’s been two months since the Fates were freed from a deck of cards, two months since Legend claimed the throne for his own, and two months since Tella discovered the boy she fell in love with doesn’t really exist.

With lives, empires, and hearts hanging in the balance, Tella must decide if she’s going to trust Legend or a former enemy. After uncovering a secret that upends her life, Scarlett will need to do the impossible. And Legend has a choice to make that will forever change and define him.

Caraval is over, but perhaps the greatest game of all has begun. There are no spectators this time: only those who will win, and those who will lose everything.

Welcome, welcome to Finale. All games must come to an end…

Critic reviews

"The magic, the fear, the betrayal, and especially the heartbreak are all magnified by her skillful narration. An intense listen that is hard to pause." -AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award Winner

Rushed, yet satisfying.

Well, it’s finished. I honestly liked this one better than the second book, however, I do feel as if the story was rushed. There’s also a lot of mysteries left. Perhaps the new book has a couple of answers, but I am saddened to hear we won’t be following Scarlett or Tella anymore. Anyways, a good ending.

EL MEJOR DE LOS 3 DIOSMIO
Lo amé de forma exagerada. Demasiado bueno! Da cierre pero deja cosas abiertas para la trilogia que viene dentro del mismo mundo :)

Fun!

This was a fun audio book to listen to. Enjoyed listening to the different characters.

4 stars

this was a good way to end a series. well done. I was unsure if I wanted to finished after book 2 but I am so glad I did. I read this book in less than 24 hours

Forever 5 Stars!

This was my second reading (first audio) and it was every bit as magical and lovely as the first time!! Our characters find themselves in one of my very favorite love stories of all literary time!! And in case you’re wondering, the Once Upon a Broken Heart series is JUST as captivating!! I cannot wait for more from Stephanie, until then, I will forever reread these gems. 💜

Idk

A very fast paced book made me have many emotions and it was the most magical book I’ve read

I’m in love

I didn’t wanted this to be over this series is the most magical I’ve ever read! Chapter 59 is my favorite

Good Read, Not my favorite in the series

I've read all of the Caraval novels and I was super excited when this released. I just overall wasn't a fan. Garber is an excellent storyteller, but there were a few moments I wasn't a fan of. I felt like the storyline with Tella's fiancee was rushed and unnecessary. However, besides a few minor moments like that, I was pleased. I absolutely hated the ridiculous accent that the narrator gave some of the characters though, especially when it came to Julian and Dante. it was super exaggerated and over the top, which made their lines distracting.

Good but not great

The story felt incredibly rushed compared to the Carnival and Legendary. Still a great storyline but just not as magical as the first 2.

Loved it-wishing for a Tella/Legend adventure novella

The best book of the trilogy. I really liked the book compared to the first two. But then the reason I liked it was the reason other readers did not…it did not have a game. I guess the deceptive nature of the games is what turned me off to books 1&2. This was more straight forward action adventure and I loved that Tella and Legend were together a lot more going off on adventures together. The last half of book three was the best part of the series. This is a very slow burn series and I agree the end was rushed but still satisfying. And Jacks deserved his own spin off. I can’t wait to read more about that scoundrel. I will be reading that series. I love this narrator! I’d also love to read a Legend/Tella adventure novella!!!
