Publisher's Summary

The explosive conclusion to the bestselling Brilliance Trilogy

For thirty years humanity struggled to cope with the brilliants, the 1 percent of people born with remarkable gifts. For thirty years we tried to avoid a devastating civil war.

We failed.

The White House is a smoking ruin. Madison Square Garden is an internment camp. In Wyoming, an armed militia of thousands marches toward a final, apocalyptic battle.

Nick Cooper has spent his life fighting for his children and his country. Now, as the world staggers on the edge of ruin, he must risk everything he loves to face his oldest enemy - a brilliant terrorist so driven by his ideals that he will sacrifice humanity's future to achieve them.

From "one of our best storytellers" (Michael Connelly) comes the blistering conclusion to the acclaimed series that is a "forget-to-pick-up-milk, forget-to-water-the-plants, forget-to-eat total immersion experience" (Gillian Flynn).

This can't end, just to good

Twists and turns, Make sure you read to the very end. Narration was great. Scary how real this all could be. Good to know it is just in the mind of the writer, but very relatable.

Decent concussion

Decent conclusion to the trilogy, if you don’t think about it too hard. There were definitely a few plot issues but nothing over the top. I would have liked for the epilogue to have concluded more, but overall enjoyable nonetheless. I hope (but doubt) there will be a fourth book in the series, perhaps one that doesn’t ignore the rest of the world as much, and perhaps sheds some light on the origin of the gifted.
