Summary
Witness the fate of beloved heroes and notorious foes in the heart-stopping conclusion to V.E. Schwab's New York Times best-selling Shades of Magic trilogy.
The precarious equilibrium among the four Londons has reached its breaking point. Once brimming with the red vivacity of magic, darkness casts a shadow over the Maresh Empire, leaving a space for another London to rise.
Kell begins to waver under the pressure of competing loyalties. Meanwhile, an ancient enemy returns to claim a crown and a fallen hero is desperate to save a decaying world.
Critic reviews
“A Darker Shade of Magic is smart, funny and sexy...and Schwab keeps the excitement coming with roller-coaster plot twists that establish her as, perhaps, the natural successor to Diana Wynne Jones's contemporary fantasy crown.” (The Independent)

Really enjoyable series
I very much enjoyed the series. All 3 books told a decent chunk of the story so no need to drag it out to 4 or 5 like some fantasy novelists. Author was new to me so I’ll try some more. The narrator wasn’t annoying to me so try the sample and see for yourself before letting that put you off.

Wonderful story
A wonderful trilogy that I’ll listen to again and again... as long as I can focus on the story and not the truly dreadful narration. There’s a red London, a grey London and a white London but no American London,so why use American narrators? To make matters worse, the two narrators make each of the characters sound completely different, which is ridiculous! Despite this, the story is absorbing and I will definitely listen to more from this author.

An ending
this book closes out the second book. but it would have been able to be in one book as they are not only the same series but the same story.

Great tale!Loved every bit of it
Sometimes narration irked a bit, but the story and the characters outweighed that and didn’t take from my overall enjoyment of the book. Hope there’s more.

perfect ending to a great series
Amazing narration from the duo who did the stormlight archives and the rest of the cosmere books.
The writing is incredible and the story is heart racing and captures your attention from start to finish. Another serues I'm sad to finish.

Great ending to a really fun series.
Schwab is now one of my favourite authors, I like her characters and love the way she weaves a story. This was a fitting ending to the shades of magic series and I hope we'll get some other stories from this world in the future.
There is one bit of torture in this book that I couldn't listen to but I just skipped to the next chapter and it was gone. It was from a characters past that we knew about so I already knew it was coming and didn't feel that I needed to listen to it.
Great narration again from the two narrators I'm used to their accents now so they fitted the book well.
