Destroy the Day

Bloomsbury presents Destroy the Day by Brigid Kemmerer, read by Chase Brown, Christopher Ragland and Lexie McDougall.

In the thrilling conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Defy the Night series, Brigid Kemmerer crafts heartrending twists and devastating turns that will keep readers breathless to the very end.

Left for dead, but desperate to survive . . . they have one last chance to save their kingdom.

Prince Corrick is out of options. Held captive by the vicious Oren Crane, he’s desperate to reunite with Tessa, but will need to ally with the rebel leader Lochlan, who until now wished him dead. An unlikely but deadly pair, Corrick and Lochlan must plot their next moves carefully. . .

An island away, Tessa Cade is heartbroken and angry. Grieving Corrick, and unsure how to find a way back to Kandala, she doesn’t know who to trust. Until Rian--the man she trusts least--makes an offer: aid in a plot to finally oust Oren Crane and see what the future holds. . .

Meanwhile in Kandala, Harristan is dethroned and on the run. He’s struggling to unite the rebels in his fractured kingdom, but he finds support--and maybe more--in unexpected places.

Can Harristan be the king his people need? Can Corrick and Tessa find their way back to each other? As outside threats loom and the fires of revolution burn from within, time is running out to save their kingdom.

A captivating combination of thrilling adventure, swoon-worthy romance, and royal intrigue, Defy the Night is everything I crave in a fantasy romance.

Good story

I enjoyed all three books. The story took some twist and turns. The characters were easy to relate to and enjoyed their growth.

Excellent

So much faster and so many more twists and turns than the last book. Loved it!

Good, but rushed

Good but not great like the others in the series. Felt like the author was rushed

I loved it

I loved that it was so descriptive, I felt as though I was in the book, I loved the complex characters, and the brilliantly placed plot twists. A job well done, Brigid Kemmerer!

A perfect end to the series!

This was everything I could have asked for to end the series. Once I hit about 70% I started to worry there wasn’t enough book left for everything to wrap up and that maybe this wouldn’t be a trilogy after all, but Kemmerer managed it beautifully. No notes. I simply loved these characters and getting to see them grow and evolve throughout. I laughed, I cried, I giggled and exclaimed. The perfect ending to an excellent series.

Specific to narration - I really enjoyed all three narrators throughout each of the books, I think they did a fantastic job. It did make me laugh a few times that Quint’s voice was massively different from one narrator to the other, but it didn’t bother me much. I still loved the character with my whole heart.
