The Nevernight Chronicle, Book 3

By: Jay Kristoff

Narrated by: Holter Graham

From bestselling and award-winning author Jay Kristoff comes the thrilling and heart-breaking conclusion to The Nevernight Chronicle.

Mia Corvere, gladiatii, escaped slave and infamous assassin, is on the run.

After the greatest games in Godsgrave’s history ended with the most audacious murders in the history of the Itreyan Republic, Mia finds herself pursued by Blades of the Red Church and soldiers of the Luminatii legion. She may never escape the City of Bridges and Bones alive.

Her mentor Mercurio is now in the clutches of her enemies. Her own family wishes her dead. And her nemesis, Consul Julius Scaeva, stands but a breath from total dominance over the Republic.

But beneath the city, a dark secret awaits. Together with her lover Ashlinn, brother Jonnen and a mysterious benefactor returned from beyond the veil of death, she must undertake a perilous journey across the Republic, seeking the final answer to the riddle of her life. Truedark approaches.

Night is falling on the Republic for perhaps the final time.

Critic reviews

"If you love Robin Hobb or George R. R. Martin, you will adore Nevernight." (Starburst)

"With a delicate balance of the ancient and the magical, this tense and brutal tale is unflinching, thrilling and satisfying." (Publishers Weekly)

"Joins lyrical high fantasy, Pratchett-like humour and unflinching descriptions of violence [...] something special." (SciFi Now)

Utterly delightful.

A sheer delight. A wonderful book narrated by a genius. I cannot recommend it more highly.

Amazing

This will be one of the best books and trilogies you will ever read. Never flinch, never fear and never forget.

A book has never made me cry as much as this book

A wonderful wrap up to the series. I will miss this world and the characters.

Better than a Game of Thrones

I cannot believe I said that. A Game of Thrones used to be my favourite series ... until GJJ Martin sold his soul to the television abandoned it. Kristoff’s characters and twists are at least as exciting, and he finishes the series beautifully! The narrator was fabulous too. Thank you so much. This has been a wonderful journey, which I will never forget.

Incredible narration!

The narration really brought this together. I don’t usually like series but the narrator kept bringing me back. I’ll miss this book.
