Children of Anguish and Anarchy

What I needed from this writer. I didn't like the ending but that doesn't change my mind about the book or the series. It does not disappoint you in story telling.

What a Finale! This book was truly different than the first two (the narrator shift was very present and shifter the feel of the story in parts)The magic, other worldly and transcendent time truly engulf the reader. The heaviness of war, youth making life altering decisions and weight of loss of childhood are still ever present and truly gripping on EVERY page. The world building, majestic descriptions and emotion evoking details are what the reader has come to expect and are consistent throughout the story and series. The antagonist is clear and the many plots tell of multiple stories and timelines that emerge into a story with many lessons that still stand present today. This a book and series I definitely recommend.

It took me days to get through this book... I gotta say giving my final review I really started to not like Zelies character the way she INSISTED on being a sacrificial lamb and her complex at not being good enough... It was CONSTANTLY brought up at every turn and I got so frustrated.... I can honestly say I don't like how Amari turned out kind of how her story fizzles out and I didn't like Inans ending at alllllllllll..... And the fact Mae is the one that tells him to do it and he just leaves and sacrifices himself...it's like WHAT?!?!.... THEN we NEVER HEARD of what happened to Roen.... It's like he just vanishes..... Great job on Tzain story line IT WAS GREAT.... I just wish him and Amari could have gotten together and we could have seen what a future looked like for them and even Zelies love life.... it wasn't anything else mentioned of it besides her saying bye to Inan....The last book was great we are introduced to a new tribe but as they story gained I feel like the other characters fell off and it was kind of rushed but never the less it's entertaining and well written great job look forward to watching the movie when it comes out.

This isn't a bad book but it's not up to par with the previous. What it's lacking is much relationship building beyond addressing wounds of the past. The characters really don't connect well- beyond the sibling bonds. There is also a lot of repetitive remembrances-which helped at first because it had been so long since I read the others, but it was too much. The end also felt rushed and needed a bit more fleshing out- some of it was actually confusing and emotional response was lacking from some of the big events. All that being said, it's still a compelling world with interesting magic and the new villains were super creepy and new allies super cool. Not a horrible read by any means, just not an amazing read I'd hoped for.

My 16-year-old daughter has the whole series and loves each book. The series blends African culture, mythology, and fantasy in a masterful mix of creativity, intelligence, and entertainment. I picked the first one up out of curiosity. I read the summary on the back cover and thought it sounded like something she would like. She fell in love with the story, and we both love the artwork on these books; the covers and the prints on the sides of the pages are beautiful. I checked out the author, and this woman is brilliant and talented. They are supposed to be making these books into movies, so read them now!

Excellent Excellent book or series.Could not put the book down nor the entire series of three books total. Great read for anyone looking for a little fantasy

Love this Series!!!!!

The last book of the trilogy. A magical adventure filled with twist and turns, and plenty of action. I didn't like that we never found out what happened to Roen, and Inan's unexpected sacrifice. That was very disappointing. Otherwise, it was a great series.

¡Tomi Adeyemi no decepciona! ¡Soy un FAN! ¡¡La mezcla de espiritualidad africana con SCI-FI como MAGIA!! Ella escribe mientras yo imagino a EE. UU. como almas individuales con magia sin explotar.

From book 1 to book 3... There are so many ups and downs, so many surprises and twists, tears of joy and sadness so you keep going back for more. Each character has you feeling their emotions as expertly written by Tomi Adeyemi. You find yourself in the world that Tomi has written through each book. This final book in the series leaves you an emotional wreck but it is so worth it. Zelie, Tzain, Amari and Inan have been through it all. Love this series and highly recommend. I can't wait for the movie ☺️❤️

Great conclusion to the story. Can’t wait for the movies

This was my favorite book of the series and it was so hard to put down. The story, the descriptions and the action were thrilling.

This trilogy ended with a masterpiece! What an adventure! All elements of fantasy at its finest! Highly recommend this series!
