What to expect
Wicked Saints meets the Grishaverse in this stunning and relentless conclusion to the Night Spinner duology.Enebish has been deceived by everyone she once considered a friend. On the run across the tundra, her only allies are her best friend Serik and a band of ill-tempered shepherds. Her only hope of bringing peace to Ashkar is to unite the people of the Protected Territories and make a stand against the tyrannical Sky King and the hostile nation of Zemya. But that’s easier said than done. As supplies dwindle, the shepherds become far more desperate for food than freedom.Meanwhile, Zemyan forces have stormed the Ashkarian capital. Imperial Army Commander Ghoa throws all of her power into a last-ditch effort to save her king, only to be abandoned by her fellow warriors. Held captive in a prison forged of magic and tortured by the zealous sorcerer Kartok, Ghoa learns his true ambitions lie far beyond the warring countries―he wants vengeance on the gods themselves.The war between Ashkar and Zemya began centuries ago as a feud amongst the gods. Now it’s up to the two most hated people on the continent―the monstrous outcast, Enebish, and the notorious war criminal, Ghoa―to heal that spiritual divide before Kartok brings the skies crashing down on all of them.
Critics Review
-
“Their stories are gracefully balanced, enabling readers to explore more of the lavishly painted worldbuilding and internal mythologies…An expansive, highly rewarding read.”
Kirkus Reviews
-
“The thrilling conclusion…is lyrically written…Readers continue to see development in Ghoa’s characterization and find meaning behind her actions…[in] the unique world found within.”
School Library Journal
-
“Narrators Natalie Naudus and Caitlin Davies deliver the epic finish to the Night Spinner series. Enebish, portrayed by Naudus, is still reeling from Ghoa’s betrayal. Her chapters are delivered with careful precision…Davies’s narration, full of righteous fury, adopts a sinister tone as Ghoa plots against her torturer.”
