Synopsis

The thrilling conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Tearling trilogy.In less than a year, Kelsea Glynn has transformed from a gawky teenager into a powerful monarch. As she has come into her own as the Queen of the Tearling, the headstrong, visionary leader has also transformed her realm. In her quest to end corruption and restore justice, she has made many enemies—including the evil Red Queen, her fiercest rival, who has set her armies against the Tear.To protect her people from a devastating invasion, Kelsea did the unthinkable—she gave herself and her magical sapphires to her enemy—and named the Mace, the trusted head of her personal guards, regent in her place. But the Mace will not rest until he and his men rescue their sovereign, imprisoned in Mortmesne.Now, as the suspenseful endgame begins, the fate of Queen Kelsea—and the Tearling itself—will finally be revealed.

Goodreads review by Anne on March 23, 2017

Alright, I'd put off reading this for a long time, because I kept reading review after review about some sort of a wonky ending.

I didn......more

I AM SO ANGRY AND UPSET RIGHT NOW. 2.5 stars. This series is so important to me, let me put that out there. I am so invested in this world and have been waiting for this finally for a while.

1.) The Queen of the Tearling ★★★ 2.) The Invasion of the Tearling ★★★ “This, I think, is the crux of evil in this world, Majesty: those who feel entitled to anything they want, anything they can grab.” I honestly feel like I don't know how I feel about this series. There is so much good in......more

Goodreads review by Cece on April 04, 2017

Maybe it's a 3.5 but I can't decide I'm so so so deeply sad right now. This has been one of my all-time favorite series and I think the first two books are masterpieces, but this one just stumbled and fell on the ending. It could have ended any other way and I think I would have been happy, but this......more
