Suns Will Rise

By: Jessica Brody, Joanne Rendell

Narrated by: Vikas Adam, Kevin R. Free, Caitlin Kelly, Joy Osmanski, Emily Woo Zeller

Les Misérables meets The Lunar Chronicles in this thrilling conclusion to the System Divine trilogy that’s an “explosion of emotion, intrigue, romance, and revolution” (Stephanie Garber, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Caraval series).

An heir. A renegade.
A convict. A cyborg.
A défecteur.
Five rebels. One revolution.

It’s been three months since the Patriarche was beheaded, leaving behind no known heir. Now, the planet of Laterre is unrecognizable. General Bonnefaçon has cleaned up the streets, fed the hungry, and restored peace while the next leader is decided upon. From the outside, Laterre seems to be flourishing. But dangerous rifts threaten to shatter the planet from within.

The Red Scar has been killing off anyone with a legitimate claim to the Regime, while the Vangarde are preparing for the return of their infamous leader. Then, it’s revealed that the Patriarche had a daughter who is still alive. A missing Paresse heir…Alouette has been locked in a secret facility for months, interrogated on the whereabouts of the General’s renegade grandson.

Marcellus is desperately searching for Alouette, knowing she’s the key to the Vangarde’s plan to overthrow the corrupt Regime, but unaware that he, himself, is being hunted by a new cyborg tasked with tracking down the planet’s most wanted criminals.

Meanwhile Chatine is growing restless, living underground with a rebel group she doesn’t fit into. Until an old friend solicits her help to save the Défecteur community from a mysterious, new threat. A threat that will tie them all together.

When the general makes an explosive play for power, allegiances will shift, rebels will become leaders, barricades will rise, and the tinderbox of Laterre will finally ignite, launching a revolution five hundred years in the making.

Critic reviews

"Separate narrators help listeners keep each character straight, which is important, given the complexity of the plot and the length of the audiobook. The narrators maintain a steady pace, and the short chapters help the story move along."

There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes!

***CONTAINS A SPOILER***

Book three is Les Mis in the barricades - our main characters continue their growth journey and I don’t want to spoil anything but we don’t have as many deaths here than in Les Mis. It is still sticking true to its source material but with the authors’ out spin on it. I definitely don’t agree with one of the deaths, Etienen’s because I was shipping him and Chatine. Still a great book and a great trilogy! Highly recommend!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHH

I JUST FINISHED THE SERIES AND IVE ONLY EVER CRIED ONCE BEFORE WHILE FINISHING A BOOK OUT OF HUNDREDS, BUT THIS MADE ME CRY LIKE A TODDLER WHO LOST HIS DOG 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Great series

This is a a great series. I highly recommend for teens and adults that like fiction. I loved it.

Made the other two books worth it

I felt the first two books were empty and the characters flat but this book made the read of the first so worth it. wrapped up beautifully and now a favorite.
