About this listen

 From two time British Fantasy Award-winning author, Jen Williams, comes the epic conclusion to the Winnowing Flame trilogy. Exhilarating fantasy for fans of Robin Hobb.

'One of the best fantasy novels of the year, if not the decade' James Oswald

'A fitting finale, triumphant and bittersweet in all the best ways' SciFiNow

All is chaos. All is confusion. The Jure'lia are weak, but the war is far from over.

Ebora was once a glorious city, defended by legendary warriors and celebrated in song. Now refugees from every corner of Sarn seek shelter within its crumbling walls, and the enemy that has poisoned their land won't lie dormant for long.

The deep-rooted connection that Tormalin, Noon and the scholar Vintage share with their Eboran war-beasts has kept them alive so far. But with Tor distracted, and his sister Hestillion hell-bent on bringing ruthless order to the next Jure'lia attack, the people of Sarn need all the help they can get.

Noon is no stranger to playing with fire and knows just where to recruit a new - and powerful - army. But even she underestimates the epic quest that is to come. It is a journey wrought with pain and sacrifice - a reckoning that will change the face of Sarn forever.

Join forces with the heroes of the WINNOWING FLAME TRILOGY as they strive to silence the Jure'lia's poison song once and for all.

What readers are saying about the WINNOWING FLAME trilogy:

'The woman is a genius! Modern and fresh fantasy... one of my favourite series of the last few years and it ended super strong'

'A fitting end to the trilogy and I am very sad to be leaving this world behind'

'Loved it! When I grow up, I want to be a war-beast'

'Williams knocks it out of the park'

'All the stars for this. ALL... An exceptional finale that exceeded every expectation'

'Feminist fantasy at its best'

I think Jen Williams is one of the finest fantasy authors writing today. I read and listen to a lot of fantasy books, and hers are head and shoulders above most others. But what she does is also different to what the other great fantasy writers are doing, in a way that’s really important and refreshing. Her character development is up there with anyone else; but it’s the way she builds a fun, diverse range of characters in all her books, with genuine warmth and colour. It’s fantastic, and sets her apart as one of my very favourite authors.
This book is packed with wisdom and humour, as much as it is darkness and adventure. And a really great plot. It’s got it all.

The narrator does a bloody brilliant job too. I really do just forget that all the voices are him. Wonderful performance.

Jen kills it again. Brilliant end to a brilliant trilogy
