About this listen

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.

"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)

.....This book, along with it's unforgettable predecessors, nevernight and godsgrave, have stole a piece of my soul. The strength of characters has left me in awe of Jay Kristoff's literary ability. I laughed and cried and laughed some more. In a tale you find yourself encouraging murder and deception and willing on evil acts because you feel apart of it, just as if it was your own vengeance being played out . What can I say this book becomes apart of you. And will be read time and time again.

Never flinch, never fear and never ...ever forgot!

When All Is Blood, Blood Is All. Wow what a fantastic conclusion in the Nevernight series, absolutley brilliant storytelling that leaves you in awe of Jay Kristoffs amazing world. A fast paced action packed blood drenched tale, vulgar mouthed assassins that will have hanging on every page wishing that there is no end in sight to this epic journey of vengeance. Fantastic characters, plot and the dark, oh very dark setting where the shadow daemons come out to play. I love the way the author takes the mickey of his footnotes in the story and it brings a bit humorous fun to a tale where there is just so much stabbyness and death. Darkdawn follows Mia Corvere teenage assassin, ex gladiator, former member of the Red Church dedicated to the worship of the goddess of Night and murder and dark kin a magic user that can manuplate shadows to her will. This book finds Mia on the run from the events of Godsgrave, the attempted assassination of her arch enemies the leaders of the republic that destroyed her Familia with a hostage in tow reeling from the fallout of realizing that she has been used as a pawn in the great game that her allies aren’t who she thought and that several characters thought to be dead and gone are back. Will Mia get her revenge that she is so obsessed with, read to find out, you will absolutely love the twists and turns in this superbly written trilogy. The narrator Holter Graham has given his all and has brought this amazing series to life. I very highly recommend...🖤🗡💀💥
