Darkdawn (The Nevernight Chronicle, #3)

by Jay Kristoff

From bestselling and award-winning author Jay Kristoff comes the thrilling and heart-breaking conclusion to The Nevernight Chronicle.

Mia Corvere, gladiatii, escaped slave and infamous assassin, is on the run.

After the greatest games in Godsgrave’s history ended with the most audacious murders in the history of the Itreyan Republic, Mia finds herself pursued by Blades of the Red Church and soldiers of the Luminatii legion. She may never escape the City of Bridges and Bones alive.

Her mentor Mercurio is now in the clutches of her enemies. Her own family wishes her dead. And her nemesis, Consul Julius Scaeva, stands but a breath from total dominance over the Republic.

But beneath the city, a dark secret awaits. Together with her lover Ashlinn, brother Jonnen and a mysterious benefactor returned from beyond the veil of death, she must undertake a perilous journey across the Republic, seeking the final answer to the riddle of her life. Truedark approaches.

Night is falling on the Republic for perhaps the final time.

The story of Mia Corvere is one that I will cherish forever. Starting this series, I didn’t know what would happen or if I would continue it since at first it didn’t strike my fancy, but I’m glad I did.

This last book does Mia justice. It wholly captures what she has been striving for throughout her story and I’m so grateful for that. I’ve come to love Mia as a character and will miss her dearly now that her story is over. I couldn’t have asked for a better ending and I’m so happy I read this series. So thank you Jay Kristoff, for creating this amazing bitch of a character that I love.
