About this listen
The exhilarating, romantic conclusion to The Magic Eaters Trilogy, a dystopian YA fantasy series like no other.
Can Nora take her father’s crown...before his dark magic takes her life?
Ulmin Abrios, King of Cellerin, has gone mad. He’s invading and terrorizing his own cities.
Princess Nora, his estranged daughter, is determined to seize the crown and save her people. Along with her boyfriend Ovrun and her friends Krey and Sarza, she secretly returns to Cellerin.
As she plots to take down her father, Nora wrestles with her desire to find love. She knows how confining life in the palace will be. Could Ovrun - or any man - ever truly embrace the restrictive life of a king?
Touring her land on a dragon’s back, Nora builds a vast team of supporters. But Ulmin’s mind is decimated by forbidden magic, and he’ll use any weapon, from torture to mental slavery, to protect himself. Even against his daughter.
With both the crown and her heart at stake, Nora must give her all to defeat her father. Otherwise, his tyranny will overwhelm the land...giving Nora no escape but death.
Buy The Stone Eater today and devour the final course of this epic series!

Arwen Valondale never expected to be the brave one, offering her life to save her brother’s. Now she’s been taken prisoner by the most dangerous kingdom on the continent, and made to use her rare magical abilities to heal the soldiers of the vicious Onyx King. Arwen knows better than to face the ancient, wicked woods that surround the castle on her own, which means working with a fellow prisoner might be her only path to freedom. Unfortunately, he’s as infuriating as he is cunning—and seems to take twisted pleasure in playing on Arwen’s deepest fears.

Great conclusion to the trilogy
You know, when you’re picking up the next book in a series, especially when it’s been a year since the last one, it takes a chapter or two to catch back up on the story line, characters, relationships, etc. But boy, once I refreshed my memory, the story took off and I could not put it down, especially the last half of the book.
There’s so much to love and magic (as well as magical creatures) to discover and explore. You really can’t go wrong with dragons and unicorns! I really appreciated that the author allows us to feel love, hate, sadness, heartbreak, happiness, and grief; she doesn’t shy away from the hard stuff. Overall, I can highly recommend this book (and entire series), and not just for YA readers, I’m not young by any stretch.
I anticipate reading many more books by this author in the future. And can we talk about the cover?!? Not just this book, the whole series! I’m often drawn to books just by looking at the cover and this is definitely one of them! I would pick this one up to read the synopsis for sure.

Satisfying ending to intensely emotional series
Nora and her friends have been running and hiding, but time is running out - King Ulmun's reign is quickly turning to one of terror, and he has barricaded himself in a fortress of stone. New allies and revealed secrets about the magic that decimated their world may just hold the key to his defeat. But can she destroy her father's rule and still stay true to herself? Supremely satisfying conclusion to a series that has played by its own rules from the beginning.
I loved the way so many plot elements circled back and echoed events from the beginning of this series and highlighted just how far these characters have come and how much they have grown. It is rare to have such depth of character development in this large of a cast. The juxtaposition between Krey and King Ulman and their very different paths was so well done too. As with previous books, this one was interspersed with flashbacks that helped round out the current situation.
This book had quite a bit of romance - along the entire spectrum. What stood out to me about the romance in this book though was that the focus was not on the physical attraction (though it did get a bit steamy at times) but on the deeper relationships that the characters have forged through this series and above all on their understanding of themselves and that relationships are a give and take. Also the sometimes brutal honesty, and other times deep vulnerability that healthy relationships require. Lots of love that isn't romantic too - and the acceptance of all kinds of love. It was a huge theme in this book, even at the crux of Ulman's story, his descent into madness, and his ultimate fate. Redemption, acceptance, and healing were profound themes in this one. Some characters screwed up - big time. Others came from broken, abusive pasts. But they all became better and stronger together.
This is the third and final book in the Magic Eaters Trilogy. These books must be read in order. They build on each other both chronologically and in depth. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy character driven fantasy with a bit of dystopian sci-fi mixed in and a lot of adrenaline pulsing action. The audio version is narrated by the author who does a wonderful job bringing these books to life. I like hearing where she puts the emphasis and emotion - it adds another wonderful layer of depth to the story. This an an honest and voluntary review of an ARC

Long but Good Conclusion to Series!
This 3rd book takes what in Real life might happen with a attempted takeover. Nora really has grownup in this Series from a Spoiled naive Princess to a Possible Queen in both thoughts and Actions. Cray is growing up to and becoming the man he could be. There are so many characters in this Series that are meaningful and important to the books. This Book was a bit long winded, but necessary for the Final story.

Good fantasy series
Overall an enjoyable series. Fast-paced, likeable characters. I love that the author is also the narrator. She does a great job. Listening to the audio, I did get a little confused on some characters with similar names but I still enjoyed it.
