![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is a poignant and exhilarating finale to a superb fantasy series. Kristoff effortlessly draws together multiple threads from the first two volumes and packs in plenty of wickedly sharp, beautifully choreographed, and gloriously bloody fight scenes while offering humor, heartbreak, and a few jaw-dropping surprises. Mia dares to hope for a future without bloodshed, but the price of claiming it may be too much to pay. That’s where Scaeva, who wants Jonnen back, holds Mia’s mentor hostage. Pursued by assassins, towing her little brother Jonnen (Scaeva’s son) along, and aided by her loyal friends and her lover, Ashlinn, Mia crosses treacherous seas and a brutal wasteland to reach the place where her education in the fine art of death began: the Red Church. After winning the gladiator games in Godsgrave, Mia is now a fugitive of the Red Church, the Republic of Itreya, and even the gods themselves. Mia thought she’d killed Consul Julius Scaeva, her power-hungry nemesis, but she was wrong.
