About this listen

The stunning third book in the sexy, action-packed Crescent City series, following the global bestsellers House of Earth and Blood and House of Sky and Breath.

Bryce Quinlan never expected to see a world other than Midgard, but now that she has, all she wants is to get back. Everything she loves is in Midgard: her family, her friends, her mate. Stranded in a strange new world, she's going to need all her wits about her to get home again. And that's no easy feat when she has no idea who to trust.

Hunt Athalar has found himself in some deep holes in his life, but this one might be the deepest of all. After a few brief months with everything he ever wanted, he's in the Asteri's dungeons again, stripped of his freedom and without a clue as to Bryce's fate. He's desperate to help her, but until he can escape the Asteri's leash, his hands are quite literally tied.

In this sexy, breathtaking sequel to the #1 bestsellers House of Earth and Blood and House of Sky and Breath, Sarah J. Maas's Crescent City series reaches new heights as Bryce and Hunt's world is brought to the brink of collapse - with its future resting on their shoulders.

as always sjm knows how to write a beautiful ending, cc hasn't been my favourite works of hers but this one is by far my favourite.

A satisfying if predictable conclusion

Honestly the only annoying thing about this audiobook is that they changed the “this is audible” opening & closing voice and that’s just so rude!

Anyways as far as the book goes- lots of plot things happen to lots of characters and that’s about all I can say without spoilers 😂

Elizabeth Evans narration was great per usual. And I’m excited to go read the “bonus” chapters.

Had to finish (potential spoilers)

Certainly not the worst fantasy I’ve ever read, but compared to the masterpiece of Kingdom of Ash, this finale felt a bit forced in places. I still enjoyed it (mainly because of my deep and unending love of Ruhn), but some parts were a bit bland and there were so many out-right cringe worthy lines that were straight out of a 15 year old’s diary. Plot, as a whole, was enjoyable, but felt like SJM tried to make Bryce into an Aelin, and it just didn’t land with me. If anything, the slight disappointment here has just got me more ready for ACOTAR 6.

Worth the wait

The long wait is worth it in the end. No spoilers for the story. Just read to see where Bryce and her friends go next.
