Queen of the Darkness

Book 3 of the Black Jewels Trilogy

By: Anne Bishop

Narrated by: John Sharian

Jaenelle Angelline now reigns as Queen-protector of the Shadow Realm. No longer will the corrupt Blood slaughter her people and defile her lands. But where one chapter ends, a final, unseen battle remains to be written, and Jaenelle must unleash the terrible power that is Witch to destroy her enemies once and for all. Even so, she cannot stand alone. Somewhere, long lost in madness, is Daemon, her promised Consort. Only his unyielding love can complete her Court and secure her reign. Yet, even together, their strength may not be enough to hold back the most malevolent of forces.

Critic reviews

“[The Black Jewels] series...has long been celebrated for its dark sensuality and focus on female characters....[the books] remain crucial foundations of the romantasy genre and paved the way for what followed.”—Paste Magazine

Praise for Queen of the Darkness

“As engaging, as strongly characterized, and as fully-conceived as its predecessors...a perfect—and very moving—conclusion.”—SF Site

“A storyteller of stunning intensity, Ms. Bishop has a knack for appealing but complex characterization realized in a richly drawn, imaginative ambiance.”—RT Book Reviews

“A powerful finale for this fascinating, uniquely dark trilogy.”—Locus

LOVE THIS SERIES!

It's my 2nd time through these, 1st waa read. They're equally good this time around!!

Very engaging and unpredictable

oh where do I start? It took me first half of first book to decide to continue. It was athe right decision but now I feel the stories are very taxing. I would take a break here and go to some easy reads before continuing

Great Story Flow

I actually enjoyed this story. There weren't any dull moments throughout. From the beginning to the end it was just one attention grabbing scene after another. The story flow and arc of the story was a little predictable after a while, but the devil was in the details. You can tell where the story was going, but didn't know how it was going to get there. Really enjoyable.

Her world and stop telling is engaging and sexy.

Anne Bishops jewels books are all just amazing! I can't imagine anyone not enjoying them. I read/listen to the Jewels Trilogy every other year. Her world is just outstanding and her writing is somehow beautiful and desperate while all the while being strong and demanding. I guarantee you will enjoy them!!

Great series

I love the story. The plot. The magic. The love. This book was everything I hoped it would be. The ending to this story wrapped up in a neat little bow
