The epic sword-and-sorcery adventure of the Bound Gods fantasy series, which started with In the Shadow of the Gods and The Bones of the Earth, comes to its dark conclusion in this thrilling story of a vibrant world whose fate lies in the hands of vengeful gods and bold warriors.

The world has been plunged into darkness...and only the scheming priest Joros might be able to bring back the sun.

With his ragtag band of fighters—a laconic warrior, a pair of street urchins, a ruthless priestess, and an unhinged sorcerer—Joros seeks to defeat the ancient gods newly released from their long imprisonment. But the Twins have champions of their own, and powers beyond knowing...and the only sure thing is that they won’t go down without a fight.

The fate of the world hangs in the balance as the Twins aim to enact revenge on the parents that imprisoned them, and the world that spurned them. The Long Night has begun, and the shadows hide many secrets—including that the Twins themselves may not be as powerful as they would have everyone think.

Joros and his allies must strike now—before the Twins can consolidate their power...and before they are allowed to shape the world in their vision.

      At the conclusion of The Bones of the Earth (2017), evil had triumphed: the Twins were brought back in the bodies of the children who'd been raised to hold them, and the sun was extinguished. But their victory was not complete. Fratarro's arm, burned in his god-body, still doesn't work, and the Twins' powers are limited by the mortality of the vessels they inhabit. Joros, even as his plans fall apart around him, continues to scheme and remains quite despicable despite his nominal position as one of the good guys. Vatri and Scal, and the followers they attract, are a beacon of faith for people trapped in a dark world. The final volume of the Bound Gods series is a tense and satisfying conclusion to the fight to save the world. There are consequences to everyone's actions, and even doing the right thing can turn out to have terrible results. It isn't all bleak, though; there are paths to success, even through the most dire of situations, and the characters?whether or not they are likable?are compelling to read about.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2018, American Library Association.)
