Summary

Victory comes at a price.

Mare Barrow learned this all too well when Cal's betrayal nearly destroyed her. Now determined to protect her heart - and secure freedom for Reds and newbloods like her - Mare resolves to overthrow the kingdom of Norta once and for all...starting with the crown on Maven's head.

But no battle is won alone, and before the Reds may rise as one, Mare must side with the boy who broke her heart in order to defeat the boy who almost broke her. Cal's powerful Silver allies, alongside Mare and the Scarlet Guard, prove a formidable force. But Maven is driven by an obsession so deep, he will stop at nothing to have Mare as his own again, even if it means demolishing everything - and everyone - in his path.

War is coming, and all Mare has fought for hangs in the balance. Will victory be enough to topple the Silver kingdoms? Or will the little lightning girl be forever silenced?

In the epic conclusion to Victoria Aveyard's stunning series, Mare must embrace her fate and summon all her power...for all will be tested, but not all will survive.

The number one New York Times best-selling Red Queen series by Victoria Aveyard comes to a stunning conclusion in this fourth and final book.

Ok read, but a bit forced.

I’m afraid I didn't find this as good as the others - it seemed a bit too feminist-plugging for my taste all the way through, which made a lot of the characters and their reactions seem a bit too forced for my liking. I really love Evangeline’s POV and think she’s such a refreshing character, but apart from her story which felt very organic, I found most of the plot a bit too much like the author was trying too hard to throw in a lot of important social issues in such a way that made it feel as though they weren’t developing naturally but constantly being forced to the forefront for effect, which is a shame as the book deals with a lot of really good relevant issues.

So all in all, a decent story, but with a very staged and forced feel to it. Especially the end. It’s a real shame that authors often seem to feel like a satisfying ending would be too ‘mainstream’ and therefore try too hard to leave things hanging, and it certainly seems the case here. Again, the ‘trying-too-hard-to-be-an-independant-feminist-heroine’ aspect comes into play and what is obviously intended to be an empowering and independent ending for the main character just feels like the author trying to prove something that doesn’t feel very natural after so much ambiguity and emotional turmoil throughout the series. After reading a series like this, it just leaves you with a pretty ‘what-the-hell-was-that’ sort of reaction.

As for the performance, I really liked Mare, Evangeline and Mavin, but Cal’s was truly awful and his version of Mare was cringeworthy… much prefer a performance from a single actor really as there’s no jarring changes, but it’s not like some where I’ve had to give up and go read the book myself instead, so don’t think this is a deal breaker.

If you liked the first books, definitely give this a go, but be prepared for a bit of a slog!

It’s a slow start but worth it

Love the description of the clothing and how different characters see things, especially eve. The different voices are a nice twist. The female voices on Cal’s parts are very off-putting. The choice of reader for Maven’s voice is really fitting - it makes you dislike him.

Great series

I have really enjoyed this series. I did find this last book to drag a little bit more than the others and I was a bit disappointed with the ending but I have just read that there is another book which leads on from this that I’m going to try and find. It should be advertised better. Overall a good series

Painful

I really enjoyed this series and thought it would be nice to listen to this book on walks. However, I’ve not even been able to get through the first chapter despite enjoying the storyline so far because of the narrators voice. Really wish I had just bought the book instead, this is painful to get through. Her voice is so monotone.

Read Broken Throne too

If you haven't already to get a complate story I would read the broken throne as all I know it is not advertised as apart of the main story but is has the ending of the story in it. So the cliff hanger you have at the end of war storm, all the answers are in Broken Throne you just have to read round some of the histories if those parts don't interest you.

Such a disappointing end to the series

I was absolutely addicted to the first couple of books, thought the third was a bit slow but had high hopes for the grand finale. However, it just dragged on forever and eventually ended in a really disappointing way.
