Synopsis

A brave young woman risks everything to expose a conspiracy controlling her world in this heart-pounding finale to the Eye of the Beholder series, a thrilling sag set in a near-future dystopian society.Grace Luther grew up believing in the Revelations: the moment when Great Spirit “saved” humanity and transformed the world into a place where pious behavior is rewarded with beauty, and wrongdoing results in ugliness and even death. But at eighteen she learned the truth: the Revelations were a lie meant to manipulate and suppress her society. Joining the resistance, Grace heroically struck a major blow against the government of the prophets. Now many in the rebellion believe that “Prophet Grace,” is the champion who will lead them to final victory. Grace isn’t so sure. The battle has cost too many lives—including those closest to her. Devastated by all she has seen and endured, she fears she cannot command anyone—much less an entire movement.As the government’s reign of terror intensifies, rebel after rebel is targeted and killed. Yet there is one last hope. With the future at stake, Grace must overcome her fears to expose and destroy the government’s false prophets forever. Though she has many doubts, there’s one thing she’s certain of: she will lead the rebellion to victory . . . or die trying.

You'll need to read the first two books in this series first, but I recommend that you do that because they're good. I'll wait right here. Hey! See, what'd I tell you? Good stuff.

Goodreads review by Laura on April 03, 2020

An awesome ending to the Eye of the Beholder trilogy by Sarah Tarkoff! I flew through all three of her books (Sinless, Fearless, Ruthless) and cannot recommend them enough.

Goodreads review by Christina on April 03, 2020

I liked this series overall, though I thought they went downhill after the first book. The protagonist felt progressively immature and impulsive, you could spot her missteps before they came. I also felt annoyed by the overplayed love triangle dynamic and how the characters got distracted by their f......more
