Publisher Description
The stunning third book in the sexy, action-packed #1 bestselling Crescent City series by Sarah J. Maas, author of the Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) series.
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 third book, Sarah J. Maas's #1 bestselling 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.
Other books in this series include:
House of Earth and Blood
House of Sky and Breath
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Bang-up action and satisfyingly intense romantic fantasy drive the third installment of Sarah J. Maas’s thrilling (and sexy!) Crescent City series. (Honestly, if you haven’t read the first two, start with them first.) Half-Fae, half-human, entirely formidable Bryce Quinlan is on a mission: save her planet of Midgard from its cruel colonizers, the Asteri, and in the process discover her true power and inheritance. She and her fearless partner, Hunt Athalar, are on an all-or-nothing hunt for strategies, weapons, and allies. And they find all of them—as well as some new enemies—in the strangest of places. (Fans of Maas’ Court of Thorns and Roses series will recognize some names!) Maas does an incredible job of building out the world in a complex and delightful way. Midgard is home to many different species like shape-shifters, water dwellers, angels, and even the dead, all of which have their own hierarchies and social idiosyncrasies. It’s a tribute to Maas’ remarkable skill that even with so many characters, twists, and plotlines, House of Flame and Shadow almost feels short at just over 800 pages.
Customer Reviews
10/10
A huge fan of all of SJMs work!! CC did not disappoint! It’s a great read, loved the cross over from ACOTAR and hoping that door will be opened more in the next book to come! I do feel like the end was rushed. She cut us off short of how she normally ends her books. I’m hoping book 4 blows the cover off! With that being said, still loved this series and would even read it again!
Best yet.
Don’t stop.
If this was the end, she left some BIG plot holes
Big plot holes left unresolved at the end. Not up to her usual standard. It felt rushed.
