Darkdawn by Jay Kristoff
4.0
Mia is on the run after her deadly actions at the gladiatii games, and she has every soldier and assassin out for her blood.
Mia learns more about who and what she is, why the shadows call to and obey her. She has to start to play in the realm of the gods, but to do so she needs to go on a quest, which is physical as well as mental.
True Dark is about to fall, and everything is about to change forever.
This story was so wonderfully woven and finished off. It was masterfully done and epic in scope. I loved the meta moments in the book, where the author cheekily poked fun at himself. It was funny, snarky, brutal, gory, smutty, sad and philosophical all at once.
This should have gotten 5 stars from me, but the romance aspect did not work for me at all. I just wasn't feeling it on any level.
This third book was definitely better than the second and was a great conclusion to a great series.
