About this listen
The tumultuous, edge-of-your-seat conclusion to the New York Times best-selling And I Darken series - the epic saga that reads like Game of Thrones...if it were set in the Ottoman Empire.
Who will live? Who will die? And who will rule triumphant?
Haunted by the sacrifices he made in Constantinople, Radu is called back to the new capital. Mehmed is building an empire, becoming the sultan his people need. But Mehmed has a secret: as emperor, he is more powerful than ever...and desperately lonely. Does this mean Radu can finally have more with Mehmed...and would he even want it?
Lada's rule of absolute justice has created a Wallachia free of crime. But Lada won't rest until everyone knows that her country's borders are inviolable. Determined to send a message of defiance, she has the bodies of Mehmed's peace envoy delivered to him, leaving Radu and Mehmed with no choice. If Lada is allowed to continue, only death will prosper. They must go to war against the girl prince.
But Mehmed knows that he loves her. He understands her. She must lose to him so he can keep her safe. Radu alone fears that they are underestimating his sister's indomitable will. Only by destroying everything that came before - including her relationships - can Lada truly build the country she wants.
Claim the throne. Demand the crown. Rule the world.
"Rich... A worthy end to a powerful saga." (Booklist)
"Exciting, complex, and faithful to the feelings that drive human beings in love and conflict.... Highly recommended." (SLJ)
"An intense, engrossing read." (Kirkus)

Story
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

On a continent ruled by three empires, some are born with a "witchery", a magical skill that sets them apart from others. In the Witchlands, there are almost as many types of magic as there are ways to get in trouble - as two desperate young women know all too well. Safiya is a Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lie. It's a powerful magic that many would kill to have on their side, especially among the nobility to which Safi was born. So Safi must keep her gift hidden, lest she be used as a pawn in the struggle between empires.

As the only Second Daughter born in centuries, Red has one purpose - to be sacrificed to the Wolf in the Wood in the hope he'll return the world's captured gods. Red is almost relieved to go. Plagued by a dangerous power she can't control, at least she knows that in the Wilderwood, she can't hurt those she loves. Again. But the legends lie. The Wolf is a man, not a monster. Her magic is a calling, not a curse. And if she doesn't learn how to use it, the monsters the gods have become will swallow the Wilderwood - and her world - whole.

“A dark jewel of a story, one that gleams with fierce, cunning characters - absolutely riveting.” (Alexandra Bracken, number-one New York Times best-selling author of Passenger)

The small country of Medalon lies between the vast nation of Karien in the north and the nations of Fardohnya and Hythria in the south. For centuries the Medalonians co-existed peacefully with the Harshini, a magical race that abhors killing. But now they are gone and in their place the Sisters of the Blade rule Medalon from the Citadel. An elite army of Defenders enforces the Sisterhood's oppressive rule. The Harshini and their demons are believed to be extinct and Medalon has an uneasy peace with its northern and southern neighbours.

Story
Some of the parchment pages were the color of cream, thick and substantial, made to last many, many lifetimes. Other pages were thin and desiccated, positively yellow from age, and crackled alarmingly as Van Richten turned them over. There were no ornate illuminations, no fussy borders, only lines of plain text in hard black ink. The flowing handwriting was a bit difficult to follow at first; the writer's style of calligraphy had not been in common use for 300 years. No table of contents, but from the dates it looked to be some kind of history.

Bright We Burn...Amazing
This was an absolutely amazing story which was only made better by the narrator. Fiona Hardingham is a great narrator and I plan to listen to many more books narrated by her. Amazing!!

Great character development!
I have a love/hate relationship with this series. The first book was tortuous to finish. I didn’t care about the characters. However, I was curious about the story so onto book two. Really enjoyed that story. I was worried about how the series was going to wrap up, but it worked well for me. I ended up understanding and caring about the characters. I miss Lada, Radu and Mehmed.

I feel so sad it's all over
It was awesome to finally see some of the more famous scenes of Vlad's rulership. I'm sad to be at the end of the series. White really made these characters her own and molded them with life in mind. I simply loved this.

An Ending
While I have been a big fan of the series this last book took a turn for some of the characters that I found disappointing especially towards the middle of the story. As a conclusion to the series I was disappointed, but ultimately satisfied with where I left the characters.

Great Story.
I thought that the epilogue could be a little better and a times the story got a lulled with repeat thoughts but otherwise that's my only real complaint. the series was fabulous all in all even in the ironic or convenient moment it toke nothing away from the writing.
Narrator not my favorite but shes not bad.

The best of all 3 books! complete!
this whole series was so good, but book 3... it takes the cake, with a full and complete storyline, i left the series feeling whole. Kristen White, is a wonderful story teller. With multiple plot lines pulling in multiple directions and yet only one direction at the same time. each book stands alone but book 3 makes it feel like one flowing story, each chapter having purpose.
