'Hannah Whitten is my new favourite obsession' Jodi Picoult, New York Times-bestselling author

The Nightshade Crown is in the hands of a ruthless god and Lore will stop at nothing to defeat him in the final instalment of this lush, romantic, Sunday Times bestselling fantasy series from breakout star Hannah Whitten.

Lore has failed. She couldn't save King Bastian from the rotten god speaking voices in his mind. She couldn't save her friends from being scattered across the continent. She couldn't save her beautiful, corrupt city from the dark power beneath the catacombs. And she couldn't save herself.

Banished to the Burnt Isles, Lore must use every skill she earned on the streets of Dellaire to survive the desolate prison colony and figure out a way to defeat the power that's captured everything and everyone she holds dear. But as Lore gets closer to her goal, her magic grows stronger . . . and to a woman who's always had to fight for survival, that kind of power may be hard to give up.

This series is so good

There are no spoilers in this review.

I'm so happy I came across this series, and even more happy that it's now a finished trilogy.

What stands out to me is the world building, the magic system, the spin on religion. So many things. I appreciate the fleshed out characters, that behave like individuals would and not only as a part of a plot line.

This third book is the ending of an epic tale, one that I actually have to listen to again now.
