About this listen
In the final instalment of Django Wexler's brilliantly imagined epic fantasy trilogy about two siblings divided by magic and revolution, Gyre and Maya must finally join forces and rally the people to take down the Twilight Order once and for all.
The last surviving Chosen, Ashok, has finally risen up and taken control of The Twilight Order. He promises equality and prosperity, but Gyre and Maya know the truth. Only death follows in Ashok's wake.
To take him down, Gyre will have to unite old allies—from all across The Splinter Kingdoms and the depths of Deepfire. And Maya will have to seek out a legendary weapon hidden in the mountains that could turn the tide in their battle for freedom...

I'm not going too mad on this since it's the final book, see my other reviews for the main concepts. But I do think this series is perhaps Under-rated or maybe under represented on general Sci-fi fantasy posts.
The characters have their moments in the other books, this one is about the final confrontation and takes a step back into the past thanks to a clever trick to get some history via Maya's dreams.
The rest sees us moving at a fast pace around the established world and the Emperor, a Chosen now escaped, is out to abuse their power as per usual but it works so why not?
The battles are both epic and brutal. Alongside tight and edgy throughout, with each character getting their moment.
There's still far to much use of the word "Thing" to describe monsters, powers and items in the prose of what is generally a well written book. But other than that I really enjoyed this and reccomend for fantasy, Sci-fi fans especially those who like RPG games, it feels like a game plot at times in a good way.
I mixed reading and listening to this and I liked Imogen's narration very much bringing them all to life and the last, last little bit at the end brought a happy smile to my face with the character I enjoyed the most getting their redemption. Great series, lots of fun, get it on your TBR.
Great, fast paced conclusion!
