The blood-soaked conclusion to Kameron Hurley's epic fantasy masterpiece, the Worldbreaker Saga, is unleashed.

The Dhai nation has broken apart under the onslaught of the Tai Kao, invaders from a parallel world. With the Dhai in retreat, Kirana, leader of the Tai Kao, establishes a base in Oma's temple and instructs her astrologers to discover how they can use the ancient holy place to close the way between worlds. With all the connected worlds ravaged by war and Oma failing, only one world can survive. Who will be sacrificed, and what will the desperate people of these worlds do to protect themselves?

I'd give Mirror Kingdom 3/5, Empire Ascendent 3.5/5 (with a strong second half of the book), and Broken Heavens 4.5/5, as it's more focussed, and simply the most fun; in fact, it reads especially towards the end as a crossover (in the style of big Marvel films) with Hurley bringing in all her characters from across the world/s in one incredibly exciting, funny, gory and cathartic climax. New sides of several of the main characters are revealed, and the use of (black-humoured) comic relief is highly welcome and entertaining.

A fascinating element of this series, and her other book I loved, Stars are Legion, is its near total amorality, not just in the characters, but in the framing of the story. Many reviewers have noted that they are repulsed by these characters (to the point of putting down the book), and to be clear, many of them are monstrous, committing numerous atrocities in every book, and thus the ending of the book is quite powerful: 'Many Worlds' genre books often orient themselves around the theme of choice, but the quality of the Broken Heavens is in examining 'consequences'.

Ultimately I'm really glad I read the whole trilogy even if the Mirror Kingdom is quite dense at first glance. Liza Ross is excellent, and with her high pitch, I can't help picturing the whole thing as a particularly violent Studio Ghibli.

Great end to the trilogy - best book in the series
