Reviews

Entertainment Weekly 's 27 Female Authors Who Rule Sci-Fi and Fantasy Right Now "Flawless prose...the bittersweet conclusion is a fitting one for a fantastic, emotionally rich series that redefines epic." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review, on A Conjuring of Light "Desperate gambits, magical battles, and meaningful sacrifice make this a thrilling read." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review, on A Conjuring of Light "Adventure beckons, and Schwab's smart, exhilarating story doesn't let go until the very end. And, not even then." -- Shelf Awareness for Readers on A Conjuring of Light "The book is still filled with incident and emotion, with difficulty and heartbreak and anger. And it frankly feels subversive." --NPR on A Gathering of Shadows "[This has] all the hallmarks of a classic work of fantasy. Its plot is gripping. Its characters are memorable. [Its setting] is otherworldly yet believable. Schwab has given us a gem of a tale...This is a book to treasure." --Deborah Harkness, New York Times bestselling author of The All Souls trilogy "Full of magic, intrigue, adventure, deception, a bit of piracy...this will engage both adult and young adult fantasy readers alike." -- Booklist on A Darker Shade of Magic, "Fans of A Darker Shade of Magic will love its sequel, and fantasy fans who haven't yet read the first book in this series should hurry to catch up."-- Kirkus Reviews "Full of magic, intrigue, adventure, deception, a bit of piracy...this will engage both adult and young adult fantasy readers alike."-- Booklist Praise for A Darker Shade of Magic "Compulsively readable...her characters make the book."--NPR "[This has] all the hallmarks of a classic work of fantasy. Its plot is gripping. Its characters are memorable. [Its setting] is otherworldly yet believable. Schwab has given us a gem of a tale...This is a book to treasure."--Deborah Harkness, New York Times bestselling author of The All Souls trilogy "Inventive fantasy...One for Neil Gaiman fans."-- The Guardian Feels like a priceless object, brought from another, better world of fantasy books. Schwab's writing is engaging and vivid...kept me engrossed by its story every bit as much as I was fascinated by its complex, multilayered world. -- io9.com on A Darker Shade of Magic London's appeal for Schwab seems to be its changeability, the way it can shift shades, from familiar to recognizable to weird to utterly alien. But for her, even the familiar has seeds of horror in it, grime and gloom and the weight of the past...It's a multiple split-screen adventure, with an engaging hero/heroine pair at its center. -- The Wall Street Journal on A Darker Shade of Magic Compulsively readable...her characters make the book. Just as Kell has layers, Lila is a satisfyingly rich invention...the stakes feel higher because Schwab takes the time to make a world worth getting lost in. Darker Shade Of Magic resolves its plot thoroughly, but still feels like it could be the seed of a lengthy series. With so many worlds on the map, there's plenty left to discover. -- NPR on A Darker Shade of Magic A Darker Shade of Magic is as twisty-turny, dark, and gorgeous as the (multiple) Londons it winds through--I loved it! -- Steven Brust, author of the New York Times bestselling Vlad series A Darker Shade of Magic is smart, funny and sexy ... and Schwab keeps the excitement coming with roller-coaster plot twists that establish her as, perhaps, the natural successor to Diana Wynne Jones's contemporary fantasy crown. -- The Independent (UK), Entertainment Weekly 's 27 Female Authors Who Rule Sci-Fi and Fantasy Right Now "Flawless prose...the bittersweet conclusion is a fitting one for a fantastic,emotionally rich series that redefines epic." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review, on A Conjuring of Light "Desperate gambits, magical battles, and meaningful sacrifice make this a thrilling read." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review, on A Conjuring of Light "Adventure beckons, and Schwab's smart, exhilarating story doesn't let go until the very end.

Synopsis

Witness the fate of beloved heroes and notorious foes in the heart-stopping conclusion to V.E. Schwab's New York Times bestselling Shades of Magic trilogy. *Kirkus' Best Fiction of 2017* As darkness sweeps the Maresh Empire, the once precarious balance of power among the four Londons has reached its breaking point. In the wake of tragedy, Kell--once assumed to be the last surviving Antari--begins to waver under the pressure of competing loyalties. Lila Bard, once a commonplace--but never common--thief, has survived and flourished through a series of magical trials. But now she must learn to control the magic, before it bleeds her dry. An ancient enemy returns to claim a city while a fallen hero tries to save a kingdom in decay. Meanwhile, the disgraced Captain Alucard Emery of the Night Spire collects his crew, attempting a race against time to acquire the impossible. Shades of Magic series 1. A Darker Shade of Magic 2. A Gathering of Shadows 3. A Conjuring of Light

Good quality and price; too bad I found my copy before it arrived. But since proceeds went to charity I will donate it to the local library.
