About this listen

From holy cup comes holy light;

The faithful hands sets world aright.

And in the Seven Martyrs’ sight,

Mere man shall end this endless night.

Gabriel de León has lost his family, his faith, and his last hope of ending the endless night – the Holy Grail, Dior. With no desire left but vengeance, he and a band of loyal brothers journey into the war-torn heart of the Augustin Empire to claim the life of the Forever King.

Unbeknownst to the Last Silversaint, the Grail still lives – speeding towards Augustin’s besieged capital in the frail hope of ending Daysdeath forever. But deadly treachery awaits within the halls of power, and the Forever King’s legions march ever closer. Gabriel and Dior will be drawn into a final battle that will shape the very fate of the Empire, but as the sun sets for what may be the last time, there will be no-one left for them to trust.

Not even each other.

From Sunday Times bestselling author of The Nevernight Chronicle, Jay Kristoff, comes the epic conclusion to the #1 internationally bestselling series.

Far too much detail and too drawn out. Still it was an entertaining read, if an exasperating one at times. The end was predictable as it advanced. I wish there was a movie or tv series on the 3 books. The first book was by far the best.

Good but predictable end

The book is fine, although i struggled to enjoy the parts narrated by Shakira Shute; her overly breathy voice was so annoying, like someone breathing on your neck when you’re trying to sleep, that i was counting the minutes till Damian Lynch took over again. Completely ruined those sections, i just wanted them to end.

Good book, poor reader performance.

Wow 🤩
